Miss Rose

The two tails monkey

The two tails monkey

Feb 03, 2022

Hello. Welcome, my dear friend. Now I am you, you are me. We are one to solve people’s life mysteries.

So, come closer.



THE 2 TAILS MONKEY

> Oh Rose, dear Rose, what a beautiful name.

>> Welcome, what a lovely two tails Monkey you have there.

> Oh, you mean my necklace? Look closer it is a heart shaped design.

>> And who gave you that?

> It is a gift from... my later mother... Oh, I use it to show my love to her.

>> Such a filial son, and do you miss her?

> Deeply, everyday. Oh, when I miss her too much, I drive to her grave, to pray and talk.

>> Now, I see anguish in your eyes. You feel preoccupied, how could I help you?

> Things are not good with my family, my son is sick and the money is short. The hospital bill keeps rising… and I can’t pay for his surgery...

>> First, let’s reveal your past...



> Why is the sky so dark?

>> You tell me, is it bad?

> I guess, usually the dark sky is a bad omen.

>> This has a particular meaning to your past self, not to the world.

> My past self… I don’t regret finding my lost mother, because, you know, she left when I was a kid and I definitely don’t regret having a son, even if it was unexpected.

>> I never insinuated that, let’s see the present...



> Seems like an endless job, I pit that dumb monkey...

>> Why do you pit?

> Oh, I see, the monkey is me! So, is it not worth trying to save my family? Am I fated to fail?

>> Who do you want to save so desperately?

> My son, of course! But my mother’s grave requires me too...

>> What about your wife?

> We’re not on good terms… and she doesn’t know about my mother’s situation… I am not feeling okay, my hands are all sweaty, oh…

>> This is your present, you can change your future…

> So, show me… my future… Please have mercy, dear Rose.

>> I don’t control it, so let’s see a possible future ...



> Where is me? Where is the monkey?  Am I going to die?

>> Death is not always so literal, everytime a dream we have doesn't come to fruition, we mourn. So what does death mean to you?

> Should I leave my wife to be with my... I mean… My mother’s grave means death for me?

>> Take a deep breath, what is it that you want to solve? That you should let die and mourn...

> I can’t stop mourning at my mother’s grave… And my son, he is precious to me too. Help me, dear Rose...



We can't be so indecise, don't you think, dear reader? What path would be best for him?

1 - You can tell your family about your mother’s grave, you can stop mourning and move on.

2 - You can keep life going just as it is, if you keep trying, things may turn out good.

3 - You can stop seeing your mother’s grave, you have already mourned enough and should start paying attention to your son.




((1))

The Monkey decides to tell the truth about his mother’s grave, his wife gets devastated and asks for a divorce. Their son is still in the hospital and with so much going on, he gets in a car accident while driving to see his lover.


After his burial, the insurance company calls and with the money, his son is saved and from the grave a new beginning is born.


Have a safe journey, Monkey.




((2))

The Monkey keeps doing the same, he works hard to sustain all parts of his life. One day, his wife follows him when he’s going to visit his mother’s grave just to find out the truth. Desperately, she drives the car, her eyes are like rain and soon she’s out of the road.


Broken in more than one way, he sells everything to pay for his son bills, the son heals, but he never forgives his fathers guilty.


Good luck, Monkey.




((3))

The one tail Monkey decides to work hard on what matters the most, his son's health. He breaks up with his lover without no one knowing and asks for a time with her wife. Soon, the work pays off with a promotion and he starts to pay the hospital bills.


His son leaves the hospital one year later to find his lovely father and mother, even if they are not together anymore.


Good effort, Monkey.




What a complicated feeling to judge other people's life, don't you agree? Even harder that we don't need to compromise, we can just judge and give whatever advice we seem fit!

So how do you feel directing their life?

Do you like it, don't you? Feeling like a god, or better, like a demon.

Congratulations!



What end should you have? Since you choose for them...



((1))
Now you are you, I am me and you know how things are done. You can keep attending on your own.

Where are you going? For how long should I stay here?

Till you pay what you owe...by helping people. Now I am going…

What do you mean?

Goodbye, my little limbo.



((2))
Now you are you, I am me and I bet you learned a lot. Have a safe trip. Where am I going? To a better place. What do you mean? Goodbye, have a safe trip.



((3))
Now you are you, I am me and you know how things are done. You can keep attending on your own. Where are you going? For how long should I stay here? I guess forever... What do you mean? Goodbye, my little hell.



THE END
