What Is Haden: A Fictional Narrative

“I can’t believe you just said that! Get out! Get out of my car! I don’t care where you go, just never, and I repeat never, come near me again!”

With that, the car screeched to a sudden halt and Haden heard a loud click, as Maria unlocked the her white honda. His hand reached for the door handle, but his eyes went back to her’s. They locked eyes, Maria’s almost in tears. He got out of the car and his heart broke watching her as she left him there on an unknown highway, unaware of everything that could possibly happen to him.

Sulking, Haden dragged himself down the winding highway that seemed like it led to nowhere. He kept pulling at his feet, one by one, one foot in front of the other, he trudged up the steep hill. By the time
He couldn’t deal with the shame of letting the best thing that had ever happened to him leave his arms. Down and down he went, not having a care in the world of what was to happen to him. He finally came to a stop at the bottom of the hill and looked around. A rush filled his body with what he knew was to come, pain and guilt. Taking his phone out of his zipped jacket pocket, he put the camera on and tried to examine his wounds through the cracked screen.

All of the sudden, like the heavens coming to take him away, he started hearing what he thought to be music. Excited for the opportunity to get help for his agony away from Maria or rolling down the hill, he looked all around him for a car, but there was no sign of one. The joyous songs he heard were coming from deep within the woods. Processing the thought of him being saved from his emotional and physical pain, Haden raced into the dark woods where the music was coming
His heart jumped in and out of his chest and his adrenaline was pumping. He could sense that there was indeed a place up ahead that could help him in any possible way. Further and further into the woods Haden went, getting even more cuts from all of the tree branches he ran by. But he didn’t care. All he needed was for his problems to go away; Maria kicking him out and the physical pain he went through from toppling down the hill.

Until finally, he approached a bright light and ran out of the dark forest. Unfortunately for him, he had just walked in upon a wedding. He ruined a perfectly good wedding and he should just turn around and go back. The music stopped playing and all eyes were on Haden.

He looked around, but something was off about the place he ended up in. There were heavenly angels flying above a stunning woman in an even more stunning dress. There were children of many ages dressed for the occasion, as well as a priest who was ready to wed the fortunate bride and
