1 The man of 4 faces

A man was suddenly transported to a plain. The plain was all white, while a figure stood there in front of him. The figure was massive; it had bulky arms and legs similar to tree trunks and had 1 face on each side of its head. The face on the front appeared to be a face of happiness, the face on the right side appeared to be a face of anger, the left side appeared to be a face of sorrow, and the face at the back of his head appeared to be a face of sadness. Each face seemed to do something different. The face of sorrow seemed to release this dark miasma, the face of happiness seemed to release this yellow glow, the face of anger released fumes from its mouth and nose, while the face of sadness released tears from its eyes.

The man stood there in confusion to the mysterious creature and the sudden white room he transported in.

"What is my name?" the creature spoke with a threatening tone.

"Where am I...," the man asks the creature while ignoring its question.

"Who am I!!," the creature says again, but this time it echoed throughout the white plain that surrounded them.

The man scratches his head, "don't know."

"Who am I!!!," the beast roared as his head turned and the face of anger showed.

The man was spooked from the roar, so he just said a random name.

"Uhh... yoru," the man blurted out.

The creature's face made a fast turn after his response. It switched from its flaming anger face to the face of happiness.

The man's vision suddenly got darker, his eyelids got heavier with every passing second. Once he could not resist the heaviness of his eyes, he closed them as darkness consumed him.

The man opens his eyes, only to be blinded by the sun in the sky. He looked around him. He only saw trees and a wooden house on top of the sand.

"Hooooneyyy," a voice comes out from the wooden house.

After hearing that voice, the man was overwhelmed with a feeling of joy and sorrow. He quickly got up from the sand he was lying on and went to the house. When he arrived, he opened the door. As soon as he opened the door, he was suddenly ambushed by 2 little girls.

"Papa, come play with us!" the little girls said as they hugged the man's leg.

The man's face turned to a face of sadness, his eyes started to leak a liquid that he could not understand.

"What's wrong, honey?" a woman says to the man at the entrance of the door.

The man looked at the woman. She was brunette, with a slim figure and blue eyes. His eyes leaked even more.

"Come on papa!!, let's play!!"

He looked down and saw the children pulling on his pants leg. His eyes leaked even more. His voice was then suddenly hiccuping as his eyes leaked. The woman and the children tried to calm the man down in his sudden burst of tears. But the man did not listen, instead, he lunged at them with a hug. He hugged them together and never let go.

"There, there, don't cry papa, why the sad face," one child said as they rub the man's head while they're getting squeezed with a hug.

The man did not understand his sudden leaking from his eyes, but he felt a hint of happiness from the leaking, so he let it be.

After what felt like hours of his eyes leaking and the woman and children calming him down, he went to play with the children.

The man walked through the hallway as the children skipped while holding each other's hands as they made their way towards the children's room. When they arrived, they told him that they were playing "tea party," the man did not understand, so he did not ask and pretended to know. As he was playing with the children, he saw something. In the corner of his eye, there was this thing that made him angry. The man clenches his jaw as he stares at the thing longer. The girls looked at the man, "that's called a toy car," one of them said. The man's face grew fiercer, almost terrifying as he heard that name and looked upon the object on the floor of the room.

"Papa? what's wrong?" the other one said to the man sitting on a small plastic chair.

The man looked away, but as soon as he turned away to look at the children, he was overwhelmed with happiness again. He then paid no mind to the object that infuriated him and only paid mind to the children as they giggled and laughed and made jokes throughout the rest of the day.

He stood on top of the sand as it got between his toes. He breathed in the great air. His eyes leaked again as he walked back to the wooden house...
