Let's go...

There was a little child standing in the middle of a crosswalk. The child was lost and a car was approaching with swift speed. In a split second, everything changed. The child spotted his headphones in which was thrown out of a hotel window during a heated argument about what the child should have been doing on vacation. The child had headphones on for what seemed like forever. The other family members on the vacation getaway to New York was fed up. The child's headphones were not only thrown out of a 10-story high building but were victimized as it had laid on the busy street.

The child ran over to get was seemed like a lifeline, a piece of the child's heart, a precious item. However, these headphones were cheap. To the child, it was everything. As the child ran downstairs and ran out the lobby doors and ran to the streets, time sped up and the family members slowed down.

At exactly 2:18 p.m., the child nearly had life flash before the child. Rushing over to where the headphones had landed, a bus honked. The bus swerved and the child picked up the headphones.

Just two minutes later, a taxi struck the child and the child flew with the headphones in the child's ear.

[Picture a camera panning upwards and you see the child's somewhat dismembered body, a crowd that soon included the child's family and a headphone that is no longer clean. Slowly the camera pans higher and higher, you notice the streets growing and an event going on nearby. Then the camera switched to the child in a hospital.]

5:57 p.m. 

The child is still asleep. The doctor informed the family that the child tore both wrists and lost abundant amounts of blood. The doctor also informs that the child completely lost his hearing.

"With the headphones in your child's ear at the point of contact and music was blasting, the child was electrocuted by the entangling and of the wires of the headphones with the concrete floor. It is not likely that the child can hear ever."

6:14 p.m.

The child awakes.

6:15 p.m. 

The child screams and cries and screams more.

6:17 p.m. 

The doctor explains everything with the family member awaken from their slumber. The child is shaken and in a state of feeling different. The child couldn't hear. The child's siblings approached the child. They hand him a piece of paper and then turns on their laptop (that they use for watching old movies every single hour of the day). A song played. The child had heard the song millions of times, but this time the child sees it more clearly.

The child is touched and sheds a tear.

The piece of paper wrote:

"We are so sorry for not helping you with mother and father about your headphones issue. Why are you so stupid for? ...for running into the streets for those headphones? We don't know what to say. Because usually when you get hurt, music heals you. But... in your case now... We don't know how to help you cope. I know sometimes there is no bright side, yet isn't this laptop a bright screen. Hahaha! Here is your favorite song."

6:49 p.m.

The End.
