Excerpt 7.4.13


Everyone sat in front of her, looking very tired.
She did not feel tired at all anymore. She took another sip of coffee nonetheless.
Then she snapped the stick against the blackboard.
The sound made everyone flinch and all eyes snapped towards her immediately.
Very good.
“They are probably together right now, figuring out, how they can work together and when they should tell who”
She pointed at the first picture. It was of two stick figures sitting on a bed.
“We are sitting in my kitchen, talking about them” she pointed at the second small picture which seemed to represent the kitchen they sat in. Every single one of them was on the picture, represented by a stick figure.
“We know what they are doing, but we won’t tell them”
The stick moved towards the next picture. It was a crossed out speech bubble.
“What we will do though it watching them” She pointed at the eyes she had drawn. “When there should be problems we will meet again and discuss what exactly we have to do”
There was an arrow leading down from the eyes, back to the picture with the kitchen. She pointed at it, then she moved her stick back towards the eye.
“If everything goes well we will wait for them to tell us” She moved the stick along another arrow to a picture of a clock.
“If they have not told us at the end of next month even though they continue to look happy we will confront them.”
She moved the stick to the last picture.
There were two speech bubbles,  one with a question mark in it, and one with an exclamation mark.
“Any questions?”
The others shook their heads. Satisfied she took another sip of her coffee, which had cooled down quite a bit.
All would turn out well, she was sure of it.

Excerpt

Okay it has been a while and now it is another Nano and it is day to and I actually wrote something I quite like even if it has nothing to do with the plot and it has only a little bit to do with my character but I like it.




Alex did not like making decisions. Until he had made a decision he was constantly worrying that it could be the wrong won and that everything would go horrible and that he would die because of that or that he could lose someone who he cared about even if that was really really far fetched and not likely at all.
Like the decision if he was going to make himself potatoes or noodles would not decide if he would get a job in the future or if he was going to get sick or get someone to be mad with him and losing that person as a friend as the result but the evening before he actually had found himself discussing his dinner choices with himself, considering the possibility that he could accidently eat the thing his mom wanted to make for dinner the next day so he would have to go to the shop and get iot again.
Because of that he then could possibly maybe forget that he was supposed to meet someone to go through their math coursework and study together so that person would get mad with him and stop talking to him and then he would be confused and that could maybe result in that giant fight that would end nearly all of his friendships and would leave him all alone having to eat lunch at the always empty disgusting table in the far back of the cafeteria which would result in him skipping lunch and being hungry and therefore not at all concentrated in his afternoon classes which would make him fail those classes which would make his parents angry and stress him further so he would also fail his math class and his literature class and all of his classes and then he would not go to college and work in the café all of his life, only that he would probably be really bad at his job so he would lose the job too and he would live with his parents forever.
In the end he had called Joshua and asked him what he should have for dinner which had resulted in Joshua inviting himself for dinner as their parents were all gone (though not together because if they had left together Josh had come over directly after school and would not even have bothered going home).


I really hope the grammar is not too horrible I am tired and I have no idea.
So... that is all for now. Maybe I will actually blog again.
