You Open The Door And It's You

By Evan Sanders


One night right before I was heading to bed, I heard a knock.

Hi? Who is there?

"It's you?"

What?

"It's you... answer the door it's cold out here."

What is this some sort of joke?!

"Answer the damn door. "

::door opens::

"Whatsup dude? Long time no see. I like the place! Small but I like it. "

Make yourself at home.

"Look I really don't have much time here because I need to run but I would like to chat to you really quick. Well, to be truthful, I just wanted to turn up and surprise you. You know, start a fun relationship here? "

Who...who are you?

"I am... you... I know I told you this already. "

This can't be real. This really can't be real.

"It's my friend. It is. I am you."

...

"Alright I will explain. I'm you behind all the fears, procrastination, and doubts. I'm you...just the better version of you...the one that runs quicker than you currently on the treadmill, lifts harder, focuses more, and reads more than the...you...right now. I mean basically I'm incredible. I am the you...you've always desired to be. "

So you mean to tell me...you are me...but like version 2.0?

"Lets not kid ourselves here, this has to be like version 6.0. I mean look at you. "

I see...

"I just wanted to turn up and remind you of what you are working hard at. I can not actually let you know when you'll show up again, but hey...I think I would like to make a fun habit of seeing this dumb look on your face. Anyways, I really wanted to show you the genuine you...the one that is not scared of making calls and standing by them irrespective of everything else. That little blog you started, well you aren't supposed to truly letting you know this at the moment, nonetheless it is absolutely crushing it. Oh and don't stress about girls, just keep your head down for some time and everything will work itself out. Oh...last thing, don't take the bad things people say personally. Much of the time they don't even mean it. "

So...

"Got to go! Things to do. Places to be. Good luck!."

::door opens and then slams shut::

::sits down on couch...::

Woah.
