Question

Keiko was delighted she’d snagged the best seat at the coffee shop. On a freezing cold morning like this one, the cozy seats were in high demand. She plugged her laptop in and breathed deeply. How was she supposed to just come up with an idea for a story off the top of her head?

Just type something, she said to herself, and like magic, her fingers obeyed. Keiko typed a sentence without thinking. It read: “The snow began to fall.” From the corner of her eye, Keiko could see snowflakes beginning to drop from the sky. That’s funny, she thought. It hadn’t been snowing when she’d arrived here. Had she made this happen?

She began to mindlessly type again, and then she looked at her screen. It read: “The shivering boy walked into the shop and stood by the fire, warming his hands.”

Moments later a boy appeared next to her—he was shivering as he stood by the fire, trying to warm his hands. Very peculiar, she thought.

But it was also kind of fun; she closed her eyes and laughed as she typed another sentence: “And the boy gave the girl sitting by the fire a 100-dollar bill.”

Keiko opened her eyes, but the boy was gone. Oh well, she thought. It was worth a try.
