lost it, he shrieked and he cried. He begged Edgar to have mercy on him and he would not budge when the
others told him to stop begging to an animal. It seemed that Edgar had driven him crazy.
The people in the club just shuffled their way out of the club, wanting to get away from Wayhood.
Eventually, Wayhood stopped begging and started to get himself together. He found that the bag of money
was left next to him so he used the money to build a dirt house next to the club and make Edgar a hole.
He gave up on his job, he gave up on his wife, and he gave up on everything, just for a cow. He did not
plan to return home even once, wanting to stay near the Pearl River forever. Wayhood’s wife reported him
missing after he did not come back from the vacation.
Few months passed; the authorities had not found Wayhood since the day of his disappearance. However, a
traveler just so happened to pass by Wayhood’s place. The traveler’s name will be kept a secret to protect
him, so he will be called Ginav. To record what he had done in his life, Ginav always had a camera with
him. When Ginav met Wayhood for the first time, Wayhood looked like a normal and sane person.
“My name is Rany Wayhood. Yes it is pronounced
rainy
.”
“Mine is Ginav Feer, Pronounced
Ji-narv Fear
. I am from Georgia, the country in Europe. Nice to meet
you.”
Ginav decided to hit the sack as it was late when he arrived at. On the other hand Wayhood never slept.
Ginav decided to ask Wayhood why there were no people around before going to sleep. What Ginav saw
next was horrifying; Edgar was “emitting” a sort of laser beam into Wayhood’s eye, like a ritual of some
sort. Ginav caught it on tape as well. When the laser beam was being emitted, Wayhood kept saying,
“Edgar is the one in the hole. Obey Edgar and receive immortality.”
Then Edgar slowly turned his head around to look at Ginav and let off the loudest moo any man has ever
heard to intimidate Ginav. It worked, Ginav scrammed, terrified for his life. Screaming at the top of his
lungs, Ginav thought he was done for. But Edgar did not go after him, Ginav was safe from danger.
However, when Ginav was checking the tape for what he had shot, he found that the scene where Edgar
was performing the ritual was disoriented and choppy, as if Edgar’s presence was what caused the
disturbance.
The laser beam that Edgar was emitting was what kept Wayhood awake and it was what helped Wayhood
walk the long distance and dance so greatly. Ginav decided to return to find the club. He was sure that he
would find the club as there was a large boulder shaped like an American football. However, Ginav found
the boulder, but the club was not there. Wayhood, Edgar disappeared into thin air. To this day, Wayhood is
still reported missing by the police.
In a parallel universe Edgar teleported to, Wayhood had been ploughing on a farm next to the river for
three straight days.
“Moooooo!” Edgar called for Wayhood.
Wayhood dropped his plough, rushing into the house to clean up Edgar’s dung. When the floor was spotless
again, Wayhood gave Edgar puppy dog eyes. Edgar snorted in disgust as her eyes emitted laser beam into
Wayhood’s.
Wayhood’s dry mouth was hydrated, his limbs no long sore and dark circles around his eyes gone. He knelt
in gratitude and got back to work on the farm.
As long as the laser beam was bestowed upon him, Wayhood would continue to be
mad
, as a willing slave
in return for immortality.
