Gravity, the first scene I can think of from this word involves an incident with my brother. It was pretty late at night, probably 9 or 10. I was around 7 or maybe 8, really young back then. I was with my family at some store I no longer remember. It was a rather cool night, not too chilly, but you can feel the cold. Above us was the ceiling, with a myriad light shining on everything. My brother and I, like any dumb kid, had been messing around with anything we can get our hands on, just running down the aisles without a care in the world. I don’t really know why we were her at the time. Even now I don’t know why we were there. We stopped by a stand with a bunch of dumbells. To my right, was just more items from the store. To the left, the walkway. Behind me just stood a large shelf of various items including containers, towels, etc. I stood over some carpet and attempted to pick up a dumbbell my brother, trying to pick one up under me. It didn’t take long for me to knock the one I held onto his forehead, knocking him unconscious, with blood pouring from his head. I don’t remember exactly what else had happened. But he was rushed to a hospital and taken care of. My parents didn’t even talk to me over that incident. But that didn’t matter at all. All that had mattered to me was my little brother had been safe and ever since I’ve had a constant fear of hurting someone around me due to my own dumb actions.
*The things I had mentioned from answering the questions on the “X” page helped give more details into my story but overall, it didn’t tell me to write down anything about the story itself. In fact, half of what I’ve mentioned in this post was just free writing and me telling the story on its own. I personally feel like this assignment wasn’t really well-executed since it would just end up with a story that describes the setting without a story itself.
