Entry #7: The Small tin box

 

 Hello everyone Jose (Sg) hereπŸ‘‹,

It was a simple night playing video games trying not to yell expletives past midnight. The drowsiness began to overwhelm me, but the in-game event was leaving in 2 hours. Sleep was not an option unless I wanted to wait for an indefinite amount of time for a single cosmetic. Out of the corner of my eye a single tin box.

 

A single piece of solace. My salvation. One might be led to believe that I had seen aliens in the flesh with the ecstatic expression I had on my face. I picked it up with the delicacy that one would have when picking up a child. Then a single rattle. A beautiful sound. I open the lid. *POP*.  A single small white bead. Yet I know that it holds so much. A cool winter breeze, a single snowflake, or even a cool green leaf.

 

I plop it straight into my mouth. Normally I would eat two to increase the potency but that night one was enough. It takes some time, but it slowly softens. After 3 or so minutes I took my first bite *crunch*. I can feel each individual piece, some small some big. I take a second bite and every piece is now easily digestible. Every single breath I take feels colder than it was prior to eating the bead. Not only that but I felt like I had heightened awareness now that I was no longer drowsy.

 

 

(I still like gum more, does anyone else agree?)
