Have you ever thought about what fiction is? Probably, such a question may seem surprising: and so everything is clear. Every person throughout his life has to repeatedly create the works he needs for specific purposes - statements, autobiographies, dictations - using not gypsum or clay, not musical notes, not paints, but just a word. At the same time, almost every person will be very surprised if he is told that he thereby created a work of fiction, which is very different from visual art, music and sculpture making. However, everyone understands that a student's essay or dictation is fundamentally different from novels, short stories, news that are created by professional writers. In the works of professionals there is the most important difference - excogitation. But, oddly enough, in a school literature course, you don’t realize the full power of fiction. So using our website in your free time discover fiction for yourself. The Writing On The Wall by Judy Colella (top 10 inspirational books .txt) 📖

And like an idiot, I lowered my face to look more closely. That was the last time I saw anything out of my left eye. At the time, I wondered in passing – as I began to pass out – how a ten-year-old could have the strength to stab a person through the eye.
Later, I learned that poor little Mika wasn’t a child at all, but a full-grown adult known in current parlance as a normal dwarf – someone with dwarfism but perfect proportions. The police later concluded that she was into identity theft, and used her bathroom messages to attract victims.
As I was lying on the bathroom floor in the theater, she went to my boyfriend, told him I needed my purse, and he gave it to her.
When I didn’t return, he had one of the employees check the bathroom, and I was found with – he told me – a theatrical scream by the maintenance worker. Seems I had a lovely pool of blood soaking the floor and my hair by that time.
Mika, meanwhile, was long gone, and before anyone could report my credit cards missing, she had wiped out all my accounts. I’m still waiting for a refund from the IRS because someone else with my name and Social Security Number had already filed.
I wear a patch over my eye, a false eye taking its place when I go out to dinner or attend a formal event. My boyfriend proved himself worthy of the title and we eventually got married.
And, no, I’ve never gone into a public restroom since that day, nor will I, and none of my pens is a red Sharpie.
In fact, nothing I own is red. Well, except the handle of the letter opener I keep in my purse in case I run into Mika.
