The "what if" machine

A different point of view

Chapter 1 by Curious one Curious one

"What the fuck!" Yelled Max, as he heard a loud crash in his room.

He turned on the lights to see glass all over his floor.

"God damnit..." he muttered as he began to pick up the pieces.

Max was an 18 year old in High School. He was fairly average, definitely not ugly, but had been pretty depressed and introverted since his dad had died a few months ago.

He, his mother, and his two older twin sisters had moved in with his mother's sister and her family. In the houze he had 4 cousins, all girls within 3 to 4 years older than him. Their ollege was close enough to still live at home.

Because of this, he had been bullied at school recently and just figured this was another attempt to bully him.

That is untill he looked at the box. Written on its face were the words, (Sometimes all you need is a new perspective". With love - Anonymous)

The "with love" confused him, but he opened the box anyway. Inside he found what looked to be a small type writer, but it had a screen. He took it out and set it on his desk.

The screen turned on suddenly and scanned him then words appeared on it.

:MAX, HELLO. THIS DEVICE IS THE "WHAT IF" MACHINE. I MADE IT FOR YOU... YOU LOOKED SO SAD. ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS TYPE IN ANY WHAT IF QUESTION, AND YOUR WHOLE WORLD WILL SHIFT TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION.

IT IS THE ONE YHING THAT WILL NEVER CHANGE. YOU CANNOT WRITE IT OUT OF EXISTENCE NOR CAN YOUR DAMAGE IT. IT WILL BE WITH YOU ALLWAYS... YOURE WELCOME ;)

Max was beyond shocked, but also curious. So... he asked it a question.
