I awoke a confusing power...
I could see a number over everyone's head.
It was so weird!
The number differed and it changed at every moment.
What did it mean?
Their deposit? The lies they had told? The days they left? Or... something even worse
I ran to the nearest person, the person had number 443 on his forehead “sir may I ask what the number on everyone’s forehead mean ?” I asked him
“ the bigger your number the higher your position “the person said with a not so happy face because in everyone’s eyes he is a middle class
“Okay ,but that still doesn’t explains why do the numbers go up and down and what will happen if I got the highest number ?” I asked again
“You can make your number higher by helping people in need but it isn’t as easy as you think,if someone else helps you half your number will be given to them , you could use a sort cut by hacking the system but you could easily get caught and you will have to restart from zero , when you get to the highest number you can grant any wish but as I said it’s not that easy “ the person said
“Okay ,thanks for telling me ” I said thanking the person

I am now at home staring the mirror, on my forehead I could see a number 83 in the mirror
“Starting from tomorrow I am going to get my number higher ”
Why would I want my number to increased ?
Well it is because I want to wish the world back to normal
While I was walking home I heard people fighting they were fighting on who helped the women picked up her groceries , unfortunately a women dropped her groceries two people saw that the women needed help both of them helped her but only one of them could get their number increase so the only way to sort this out is for them to fight to death in the end no one survive
( Next day )
“Honey! Wake up I need you to help me wash the dishes , after you are done I will give you 20% of my number “my mother said , I woke up feeling blurry but when I heard my mother saying that she will give me 20% of her number I quickly ran down
After I am done washing the dishes I went to my mother she gave me her 20% as promise, my mother really didn’t care about her number ,she knew my plan to wish for everything to be back to normal and she supported my idea but she used the chance to make me do house chores
Now I have a number 495 on my forehead I still have to help other people to get to the highest number , according to the news the highest number is 9999 all I have to done is to get 10000 to be the highest
+40
+100
+78
+32
+5
+115
+284
+8
+145
+455
+663
+1000
+3455
+45
+990
+744
+1000
+50
+200
+89
+5
Now I have number 9998 I am currently the second highest number ,out of nowhere “honey! Congratulations I heard you are now second, help me mow the lawn and I will give you all my number, later I won’t need the number anyway ”
I was too tired to move but realizing that I am almost done I quickly went to mow the lawn
After I am done , like my mother said she gave me all her numbers
+1099
Now I have number 11,097 on my forehead, the number was glowing gold
Suddenly “ I am the system, I see that you have surpassed number 9999 ,as we all know you can grant as many wishes as you like , what would your first wish be ? ” the system said
“ I wish for the world to be back to normal ” I said
“Are you sure ? If the world goes back to normal you may not grant any other wish ” the system questioned
“ I am sure ”I replied

I woke up , I quickly ran to the mirror, I was relieved when I saw not a single number on my forehead, just to be sure I ran downstairs when I saw my mother I made sure that the numbers had disappeared “ mom ! the numbers are finally gone “ I said happily “what numbers ? ”my mother replied to me
Then I realized that that was all a dream
(Third person pov )
Y/n was eating breakfast suddenly a person with numbers on his forehead was looking at her smiling
Was it really all a dream ?
The End
