Description
Every day for the past month she had done it, dutifully marched out to the pier, selected the same bench and positioned herself to receive the full strength of the signal for ten precise minutes. At first she had wanted to run, but found herself unable to resist, always present and unable to speak of the signal. She had immediately realized it was remaking her and by the end of the first week no longer feared it. Each day, she felt more at piece as it tenderized her will into compliance, and each day she relished the new instructions it gave her as she prepared herself for her new life to come.
She rose from today’s session and began the walk down the pier, as she neared the end, she bushed past a particularly stunning redhead. As they passed she noticed that same blank stare, the same purposeful walk, stepps matched to the timing of her own. Smiling, she realized she would never be alone in her new life to come.
