Wynter Anastene Smith lives alone knowing the deepest things about a person by a touch or a look; their past, present, and future. Her mother died when she was 12 and was raised by her grandfather. Wynter sent her grandfather on a cruise, after work...
Have you ever been felt like nothing? The thoughts of nothing flowing through your head, your body just frozen, not breathing in or out but your lungs are free from movement. Staring but not focusing on anything in particular. Your fingertips buzz but they lay gently by your side. Then suddenly you blink and breathe once again. Your thoughts flow through your head, and you go on with whatever you were about to do. And you forget that that moment had ever happened. Some people call this an out-of-body experience or nirvana the place of perfect peace and happiness. Where a person's individual desires and suffering go away, even if it's for a split second.
Have you ever been in the wrong place at the wrong time? When something... Anything had happened and your whole body overwhelms itself with fear, your chest tightens to a point where it radiates a tingling sensation through your body... to your fingertips and your toes. Your brain feels like it freezes then pulses intensely along with your heart until you realized just what had happened. It's not easy to comprehend what's happening to you in any situation, but we grow to be used to it.
People can feel anything if they want, or what their body wants. There's no controlling it. No matter how hard we try to drownd reality, its always going to go on. Even with death, your heart stops pumping, so the flow of blood around your body stops. This causes the blood to coagulate, forming clots and becoming thick and lumpy. Your muscles then stiffen which also stops your breathing meaning no oxygen gets to your cells. And once you die, your blood pools like sand in water because of the pull of gravity. When you stop stirring, eventually the sand will settle to the bottom of the glass, leaving the clear water at the top.
These feelings rarely happen to people, normal people. Feelings always change just like a mood or the time, it will eventually come up again but then it continuously passes. I, on the other hand, I always feel like this. Not when I'm alone, just when I'm in public. It's not social anxiety, that's the weird thing. I'm not as normal as people think, I have this... this ability... a prestige capability of intuition of peoples lives. Not just their past but their future.

I've always thought, people are like a piece to a puzzle... Just a puzzle that no one can solve. Because it doesn't come with instructions, people assumably just have a role to play until their death takes them out of the picture. But what is the bigger picture? Isn't this the question that everyone has been asking? I've been asking this question for years, alone. My parents had died when I was young, then I didn't know I had this ability. Their death lead to this, I don't blame them. I wouldn't want to change in any way. My mother had left me a letter, that till this day I have not read, it just sits on the redwood cabinet with her beautiful cursive handwriting on it saying 'Wynter, the world is different '.
My grandfather had raised me in my small home town, a town where everyone knew everyone. The town was what a village becomes with no city planning and great enthusiasm for architecture. Every building was different, borrowing this and that from another era. It made the place as glorious as a beloved grandmother's quilt, ever patch unique and as eye-catching as the one before. My grandfather owns a bar, at which I work. For him giving me this, I owe him everything.
