Olivia woke up in agony and pain. When she had noticed, she had been scraped up on her lower left leg As Olivia weakly began moving towards the lamp on her Vanity she collapsed in pain onto the wooden floor. Just before noticing a yellow piece of paper lying under her bed frame When she tried to reach for the small folded sheet the phone had started to ring. Olivia put her suffering aside and delicately reached for the phone on her bedside table next to her Heavyweight phonebook. Picking up the phone Olivia desired her phone call to be from her older sister Nikita, Who was her only family but lived in Ohio. When she placed her cordless house phone in her hand, and up against her right ear. Only to hear a soft and shallow voice saying “looookkk, loooookk” and she dropped the phone in fear quickly reaching for the folded paper. Olivia unfolded the yellow paper and read “ to reheal conceal “. Left in confusion Olivia replaced her hand underneath the bed with anticipation there would be something else to explain this piece of paper and who it was from, reaching under the bed, but only to find a clear Mason jar filled with 4 stones Olivia left in the uncertainty of whether she should conceive the items in the jar or place them back under the bed, but without any doubt and remembering the pain she was in she forced herself to open the jar grabbing one of the stones and recalling the note she just read. Olivia placed the stone in both hands gripped onto another over her wound and repeated the words “ To heal conceal “. The room began silent and dim. The next morning oliva got up thinking she was in a deep sleep, but only to look at her wounds it was healed, in shock, Olivia screamed from the peak of her lungs rushing to her walk in the closet grabbing her jacket and keys off the kitchen counter. Olivia ran to her grey sedan. Speeding to the office of Marketing Management bullying garage. Olivia hopped onto the elevator to the lobby in search of her best friend Nora of 2 years, not noticing she was wearing her pajamas, but that wasn't on Olivia's mind. She was determined to find Nora. Finding Nora Olivia pulled her to the lob conference room. “ Nora last night I had this dream that I could heal my wounds because I had scraped myself on accident, and there were these rocks and a jar, yes a jar and the next morning I was healed”, “Can you believe it ?” , “ No, no really Olivia “ Nora replied in laughter, “ It's almost like I have a superpower, “ Olivia responded in frustration. As Nora continued to laugh it got silent when Olivia walked out the room to the parking garage in anger “ OLIVIA wait up” Nora screamed in sorrow. Olivia drove in irritation from Nora's expressions, as she pulled up in her garage rushing to the bedroom in search of the jar. Looking and reaching under the bed Olivia was annoyed she couldn't find the jar or the piece of paper. Olivia started to turn her bedroom upside down literally. She began wondering if it was all just a dream, but that wouldn't stop oliva from trying harder. Olivia ran to her front porch grabbing a brown rock from behind the bushes she began thinking there was only one way to see if he really could heal herself or was it all just a fairytale. Rushing to her bedroom Olivia sat on a pile of summer clothing she had dumped out her wood-framed closet bin and repeated the words herself “ to heal conceal “ grabbing the brownstone that she had found, but it didn't work and Olivia wondered why, but she had forgotten he was in no pain no suffering and certainty not in agony, so Olivia took a piece of paper and slit her finger down the sides and repeated the healing process, but yet nothing worked. Olivia left in irritation and immediately picked up the phone calling her sister and told her about the amazing dream she had last night, and explained that she had planned a finance meeting to support Nora's claim on the marketing pitch. Olivia hung up the phone immediately in a rush of calling Nora and said to start the conversation hoping Nora would end it “ hey Nora did something happen today at the office “, “ yea you got mad and ran off “, “ but I don't remember coming to the office today “ As Nora explained what Olivia did today at the Marketing agency and apologized “ see you there “ Nora replied then Olivia replied “I'm sorry I came at you today over a dream that I could heal people, but we just healed each other, healing our friendship, Nora without you healing would be the same and I'm so grateful for you “ Olivia pouring out her heart to start and finish her superpower of healing the insides of her mistakes. Oliva hanged up the phone and sat on her porch thinking, that hour that second that minute Olivia had realized that she was had been healed on the inside not on the outside but in the inside where it had truly mattered, whether you have a scar or broken bone, The inside takes a lot from a person to change and heal it take months even years and all it took was an apology of comfort, not a dream or a rock it took the people it started with and it takes the people to end the process of the healing inside because you can fix and a broken bone or a cut by putting a band-aid on it but you can't put and bandit on the inside That day Olivia realized she had a superpower, not a rare one but one I takes more than one person to carry out and discover the problem in the world to heal and that was her superpower.
