You are a girl named Lucent. You have to create a piece of music to express how you feel about your crush, Wafels.
"Wafels, I love you!" You say and begin playing on the piano.
The music is beautiful.
Wafels listens to Lucent's song. It is in a very unique genre, specific to Lucent's style. The music seems to be able to make him happy or sad depending on his mood. He smiles at times and laughs at others.
Lucent finishes playing. She turns to Wafels and asks him what he thought of it.
Wafels thinks about it for a moment.
"It was alright." He says. "I enjoyed the laughing parts. The sad parts were alright too, I guess.
The user called Firebolt was also online. He listened to it too.
"It was pretty good." He says. "I don't really listen to that kind of music, but I'll admit, I could get behind a girl who could play like that."
Lucent thanked them for the compliments, but then says "meh."
"Well, it's not the best, but it's not the worst either. I could improve on it a lot though."
"I don't doubt that." Firebolt says.
But Wafels thinks that Lucent is being hard on herself.
"It's not bad." He says. "Why don't you just enjoy it for what it is?"
You think about what he said. Maybe he has a point.
Lucent isn't sure how to respond to this, so she says nothing and continues to mess with her hair.
Wafels has now fallen asleep while playing with his toy monster. You gently shake him awake.
Wafels wakes up suddenly. Lucent is looking at hime in the eyes. His eyes twinkle.
"Hey sleepyhead." She says.
Wafels gets up and gives her a tight hug. You hide slightly behind him.
"How have you been?" He asks.
"I'm okay."
Firebolt decides to leave the room, seeing Lucent and Wafels hugging so tenderly.
"I'll just be outside if you need me." He says and leaves.
Wafels pulls away from the hug now. He gives her a playful push.
"Hey, what's with the hair?"
At first Lucent didn't remember that she had put her hair in a bun. She smiles and says "Oh, I don't know. I'll undo it." But Wafels then says "No! I like it."
Lucent smiles a bit more and nods.
"Alright then."
Wafels sits down on the couch next to him and opens his toy box.
Lucent asks Wafels what is inside the box. He shows her a bunch of stuffed animals that he has collected over the years. He says that they are all characters from fairy tales and nursery rhymes.
"Why do you have a..."
Lucent slowly lifts up the toy and examines it carefully. It looks like a voodoo doll. It has pins in it's arms and legs and is stuffed with cotton.
"This is Cotton Tom." He says.
Wafels nods in understanding.
Lucent isn't sure to be excited or disturbed by this, but he decides to go on.
Lucent says "tell me more about it."
Wafels explains that Tom is a plantation slave in Haiti. One night he puts a curse on his master's family. They begin to bleed from every orifice of the body. He eventually kills them all.
Lucent laughs at this. "Kill Tom!" She cries out, grabbing the doll from Wafels hands.
"I don't think he's dead though." Wafels says.
"Well kill him anyway!"
"It's a Doll!" Wafels says.
Lucent says "I'm kidding, I'm kidding!" She sits back down and gives the doll back to Wafels.
Wafels takes it from her and continues to stare at it.
Lucent is very confused at this point. But she finds it cute that Wafels has created such a strange story about his doll. She smiles at him.
Wafels looks up at Lucent and smiles back at her. Lucent takes his hand in her own. At first, Wafels moves his hand away, before slowly reaching back again. They hold hands for a while.
You sit back down and mess with your phone, pretending that you aren't interested in them holding hands.
Firebolt was watching Lucent and Wafels through the window. He was interested in seeing what Wafels and Lucent would do next. He wasn't expecting them to go into some weird slave and master relationship. He thinks they're being way too corny.
Eventually, Wafels falls asleep. He still clutches the doll in his hand.
Lucent falls alseep next to him, her head resting on Wafels shoulder. You think about how much she trusts this boy. You shake your head and fall asleep as well.
In the morning, you wake up to Wafels sobbing.
Firebolt asks Wafels "Why are you sobbing?"
Wafels looks at you and continues sobbing.
"It's my doll." He says between his sobs. "I took it to sleep with me."
Firebolt responded "Where is it now? And where is Lucent?"
Wafels pulls a handkerchief out of his pocket and blows his nose. He takes the doll out of his hand and holds it out to you. You take it and frown at him.
Firebolt says "Where did Lucent go?"
Wafels continues to sob. He wipes his eyes and says "She left me."
Firebolt thinks for a second and responds "No, she wouldn't leave you.
Firebolt says "Lucent is obsessed with you! She would never leave your side, ever!"
Wafels sits back and thinks for a second. He then smiles and says "I'm glad you said that, Fireb... I mean Master. I feel like I'm going to see her now."
"Master?" Firebolt says shyly.
Wafels stands up "Yes, Master. I'm going to see her now. You can come with me if you want."
Firebolt smiles and nods.
Firebolt follows Wafels out of the room to go find Lucent.
The two of them walk for a while before they hear a girl calling. It is lucent! She stands in front of them. She is smiling.
"Wafels, what's wrong? Why are you crying?"
Wafels looks embarrassed. He wipes his nose and holds out the doll.
Wafels gives the doll to Lucent. She smiles and hugs him.
"Now I can finally put you to good use!" She says.
Wafels looks confused for a second. He looks down and frowns.
"This is getting out of hand," Firebolt remarks. "You two should just kiss already!"
The two of you just look at him. He sighs and says "Nevermind then, shall we go ask the old man for help?"
You nod and all of you head towards the cabin.
The three of them entered the old cabin. The interior is dark and dusty. A dim fire lights up the stone walls. Spiderwebs glisten in the corners of the room. The old man is sitting asleep in an armchair next to the fireplace. He slowly awakes as the three of you enter.
"Can I help you?" He says.
Wafels gives a small cry. He clutches his doll close and begins sobbing again.
Firebolt asks the old man "We need to know what this doll is, where it came from."
The old man frowns "What are you talking about? I made that doll."
"But where did you get it from?"
The old man shrugs and says "I made it."
Firebolt wrenches the doll from out of Wafels hands. "This doll is doing things. Its making Wafels hallucinate."
The old man stands up. "That's proposterous!" The man said.
He walks over to you and looks at you. He strokes your face and says "You're a nice little boy. Do you have a name?"
You nod and say "Yes, Cyrus.
"But they call me Firebolt over yonder," Firebolt continued. "Why do you call him Fireb..."
"I call him Firebolt!" The old man snaps. "Because that's his name! He was born in a campfire, see?"
Lucent looks at Wafels, and Wafels looks back at her. They did not know that Firebolt was born in a campfire.
Wafels says "I've wanted a brother for a long time."
"You have a sister," the man says. "In fact, you've had a sister all along."
Wafels is astounded. "I have a sister?"
"Yes," the man nods. "She's right here."
Wafels stares at the man for a second in shock. The man smiles and says "I have another sister too."
Wafels says "Wait, Lucent is my sister?!"
"Of course she is," the man says.
Wafels hugs her. The man sighs and says "I have many sisters.
Firebolt, Wafels, and Lucent leave the old man's hut and walk back home. As you grow up, you never learn the rest of the man's name. All you know is that he was a wizard, and that he gave Firebolt a new name.
The End.
"Wafels, I love you!" You say and begin playing on the piano.
