Bruce Wellington

Bruce really was an intriguing character.
He had always been alone, his whole life.
He was abandoned by his mother, and his father died while Bruce's mother was pregnant with him.
So he was now getting a lot older, well his 40th birthday was in just over 2 weeks.
He had never been in love, to be honest with you it had never concerned him.
He saw all his friends through High school and University fall in love and he was invited to many weddings.
But as he sat on a purple couch in the middle of the tacky Asian furniture store, he saw something that really made him think.
A picture was front of him.
He stared at it, it scared him, the man in this picture. The man stared back at him.
Then a small Asian woman appeared behind the man in the picture.
It suddenly occurred to Bruce Wellington that this in fact was not a picture, it was his reflection.
A mirror was right in front of him of him showing Mr. Wellington the shocking truth.
It soon occurred to Bruce that he had to do something about this mirror.
He had to change what he saw.
He got up off his fat backside and walked out of the shop.
He walked around the main street, wrapped up in his thoughts.
So wrapped up he almost got run over on several occasions.
As a matter of fact he almost killed someone!
Then he appeared to be back in his home. What a day it had been for the obese, almost 40 year old man.
The next morning he awoke still in a daze, A bad one at that!
10 days after Bruce's 40th birthday, Mr. Wellington was in a terrible accident.
He was driving his car and because he was so tired from his few bad weeks of hard thinking, he began to drive on the wrong side of the road.
You can probably guess what happened next.
For nearly a week our dear friend Bruce was unconscious.
Eventually he awoke.
No on was there to greet him, in fact there was no one else in the room.
Bruce had no idea what had happened.
After a few minutes a young nurse walked by and a look of - Well I couldn't quite work out what emotion it was and neither could Bruce.
Relief, adornment, pity and something else.
She walked into the room and several doctors followed after her.
"So Mr. Wellington is alive" Said one of the doctors.
Bruce was still slightly confused as to what was going on.
After a number of tests were run, all of the doctors eventually left, except of course the nurse.
She sat down on a chair in the room and the 2 stared at each other for 2 hours. Thank goodness for that mirror! Without it, Bruce wouldn't be here in this hospital.
Bruce loved hospitals.
The smell, the look, all the sick and possibly dieing people.
Finally after 4 hours the nurse left, muttering to herself.
All night Bruce thought about many different things- The nurse, the mirror and best of all how overjoyed he was to be in the hospital.
Bruce really was over the moon.
After some time Mr. Wellington fell asleep.
His dream was short, yet sweet.
He dreamed that he and the nurse got married in the hospital.
When he finally woke up, he was astonished to see people in his room. Many people.
The nurse and all the doctors were there, they seemed to have multiplied though, and the nurse had and man and 2 kids with her.
Bruce also noticed a large bump on the nurse.
Another nurse entered the room and one of the male doctor's got out a gun and shot her, they carried the body out and everyone left, except the nurse of course.
They locked the doors.
The nurse went over to the chair and sat on it agian.
Bruce was so confused.
What on earth was going on?
"Mr. Wellington" Spoke the nurse " this is your child."
Wow.
Bruce never got that memo.
The nurse planted a kiss on Bruce's forehead and fell asleep on the chair.
Bruce also fell asleep.
When he woke up he seemed to have changed location. He stood up and an organ began to play.
He looked around him, to his sadness he was not in the hospital anymore.
A small tear was conceived in his eye and suddenly his eye gave birth to many tears.
Then Bruce noticed the man who was with the nurse in the hospital, he looked annoyed and slightly angry.
Then he saw the nurse again, she was wearing a big white dress.
She lent over and kissed him on the lips and grabbed his hand.
They walked out of the church together.
