Chapter 5: Waiting
Chapter 6: Old friends
Joshua barely recognized the woman who stepped out of the car. Yes, he thought, she looked familiar, but was it really her?
"Joshua, darling. You can come out now," the lady called out to him. "No need to hide. I can come and find you. It'll be just like when we were kids!"
Yes, Joshua thought, Charlotte. An old childhood friend. She looked like Charlotte. Was it her?
"Joshua, don't you remember? It's me, Charlotte!"
It was her!
Joshua was relieved. But wait, how did she find him? Or know that he had accessed those records?
Wild thoughts raced across his mind.
No, it wasn't her. It couldn't be. He wouldn't believe it for one moment.
Puzzled, Joshua recollected his thoughts.
Yes, yes. It was her. She had told him to come the pre-destined place long ago, before he had even accessed that data.
How could this be, Joshua thought.
"Joshua," Charlotte called from below. "Let me bring you home. You've been gone for awhile, and everyone's really concerned about you. I'm concerned. You know you're not yourself. Let me take care of you."
Great way to end this!!!
Remember to put links to prior chapters... it helps for quick navigation...
Great suggestion! I'm on it.
Cosmically cool!
The subcousious mind helps recollection:)
Whats going on with Josh??? Did he do some acid?
I don't know. But I can tell you one thing, there's nothing Akashic about that data.
"Akashic" Your intellect is on another level:)
Another great read! Definitely want to see more
More? That may be the end of this story. More to come though.
More stories of course!
Although, undecided. Could still continue. Purposely did not have the 'to be continued' as I didn't know where to go from here. There's still more room to explore with this story.
Keep calm and Joshua! :P good chapter once again buddy! I like it once again very much. lol so that was the end, I must be tired.
I am not expecting so quick but the suspense is incredible! Enjoyed it. Thanks
Great work. Inspired me to write.
Hi! I was wondering where do you get all this inspiration from? I am still to finish the 3rd chapter so I am going to leave this page now not to get spoiled haha!
I want to say God told me what to write ... but I will refrain myself.
Cool when you feel that someone is over ! how to learn it ?
Practice? Writing is an art. Much like coding or doing math or science.
I had no idea where this story was going to take me as I wrote it. It was fun! There may be more if I can continue on the current theme -- which is what, I am not entirely sure.
I roughly know about such a state ! it happens when you do something for what is created.
Don't you pull a George Bush on us!
and again!!!
I'm behind you 100% complexring!!!
And here I am , my friend , @complexring ! I could not even think that a woman comes out of the machine .
how many do you think will be part of the result? and if you gather it all in one story and will you deal with writing a whole book ? , @complexring
Yes. I will re-publish it all at once soon. Mainly because I can't (currently) go back and change the previous posts to link to the new ones. And, I think it's nice to read everything all at once.
Yes, that would be cool ! Very nice to watch history in the making , and art! You wrote something earlier this kind ?
Not in this style. But I've penned some Sci-Fi and Fantasy stories from a very early age.
Try to lay out their ! maybe they were created in order to post here?
Wow, back to back chapters! Thank you!
I've been following right from Chapter 1, nice to see it all come to a close. :) I like how the ending is open ended though, perhaps we can have a spin-off at some point.
Well written all around, complexring. Hope to see more from in the near future!
Thank you!
I think spin-offs are a possibility...
thank you friend for noticing me
I dunno! Is Charlotte going to bring Joshua to meet a lot of friends?
Here we go! Looks like a new book is going to be realesed soon.)))
He could amazon kindle it really fast:) I Published two cook books last year on there!
I followed your advice and actually wrote an article from the heart ! please see it and tell me your opinion ! prsoto for my english ! this is the last article on my page ! , @complexring thanks !!
