Conversations 1 - Lingering Thoughts

Aloe: "Hmm…"

Kyrell: "Deep in thought are we?"

Aloe: "Oh boss."

Kyrell: "Kyrell is fine, not a lot of employees do anyways."

Aloe: "Why's that?"

Kyrell: "Guess it's because I don't own the place, I'm just here to make sure it runs."

Aloe: "Oh is that so?! Hehe, that's actually kinda funny."

Kyrell: "Yeah I get that a lot. So? How's the first day of official work been?"

Aloe: "I feel like you're holding back on me, giving me easy tasks."

Kyrell: "You think so? Pretty much the only job I can give you anyways since I actually don't know what other position to put you in. You weren't exactly planned you know."

Aloe: "Ah I guess so. Guess Yagoo really threw you a fastball huh?"

Kyrell: "You said it, but I guess it was his way of making it up."

Aloe: "I guess. But if I didn't do those things in the past, maybe I would still be there."

Kyrell: "Dwelling on those things won't make you feel better though."

Aloe: "Huh?"

Kyrell: "Every one of us has regrets. But they are heavy, weighing us down in ways we can't imagine. The more we think about it, the heavier it gets-"

Aloe: "Even so. I can't help but think of a different time where I can be with those I've become friends with."

Kyrell: "That's normal and you're free to cry, shout or reflect. What I'm trying to get at is, rather than let those things hold and slow you down, wouldn't it be better to take a step forward and continue pressing forward? Even if it is a step at a time."

Aloe: "..."

Kyrell: "Though what would I know? I'll leave you with your thoughts. Try not to stay up too late."

Aloe: "Heh, guess he's right in some way and my first step is to work hard here."

Hmm I might republish if this doesn't go well.

So you might be wondering how come I separated this from the entry. I just thought it would be nice to have a dialogue sequence in a different "chapter" because those entries are essentially diaries and I dunno I just find doing it like this to be more useful.

Also, apologies that these are short, I genuinely don't want to spend a gratuitous amount of time working on these. I'm not gonna make some excuse, I just don't want to spend a long time writing this hence why they are flash fiction. Which are also called microstories.

Nevertheless, I hope it's enjoyable, maybe as the entries increase and more different perspectives come in then I might end up increasing the word count; I highly doubt it, but at the very least I'll have more things to show you all.

That's all from me for this week, I know it's probably not worth the wait, but thank you so much for reading. See you all next time!
