Chapter 116:

#115 Speaking Truth

Lucky Draw [100 word stories]


My friend Jonah speaks truth into things. He told the flowers to grow, and they shot up to the skies. He spoke of wanting a puppy. That evening, one sat at his door. He told me I would be his best friend, and I believed this to be true. His power is beautiful. It is also horrific.

Because when Jonah speaks truth into things, it is not always out of love. If he said it would be a miserable day, it would rain. When in his anger, he told me to kill myself… I took the knife to my throat.
