Wrong Ending

di RJ QUINCY (Autore)

True American Publishing, 2024

Quincy Rogers was a man who lived for the stories he told. As a wildly successful screenwriter in Hollywood, he had crafted countless tales that captivated audiences and raked in millions at the box office. His life's work was defined by the ability to craft compelling narratives with satisfying resolutions. However, at just 35 years old, Quincy found himself face-to-face with an ending he could never have written himself. Struck down by a massive heart attack, he was rushed to the hospital, doctors frantically working to resuscitate him. As he lingered on the edge of life and death, something inside Quincy snapped. With a surge of energy, he sat bolt upright in the hospital bed, eyes wild. "Who wrote this ending?" he shouted at the stunned medical staff. "This is all wrong!" In that moment, Quincy's brilliant but eccentric writer's mind could not accept the abrupt, unsatisfying conclusion fate had scripted for him. Pushing away the doctors, he launched into an impassioned rant about how he wanted his life's story to end. It had to be epic, profound, a finale worthy of his talents as a storyteller. He barked orders that a team from the elite Writers Association be summoned immediately to rewrite the final act of his life's narrative. To the astonishment of all, a group of Hollywood's most celebrated writers was hastily assembled in Quincy's hospital room. With his heart barely hanging on, Quincy gripped the writers in his piercing gaze and commanded them to craft an ending fit for cinema immortality. Ideas began flying around the room like sparks from a wildfire. Some suggested Quincy could avert death through a daring medical procedure only he could design. Others proposed he take up mountain climbing and meet his destiny scaling the deadly peaks of K2. A few even pitched endings where he would solve global crises or lead humanity to profound philosophical awakenings. As the writers tossed out ideas, Quincy mercilessly critiqued each one, his mind still razor-sharp even as his body failed him. He forced them to dig deeper, to unearth the kind of profoundly moving, immensely satisfying resolution he had made a career out of creating. The hours ticked by, sweat beading on Quincy's brow as his life force slowly ebbed. Finally, after several false starts, an ending began to take shape that met his lofty standards. In his final moments, Quincy smiled and nodded, having at last created a finale worthy of such a life. With tears in their eyes, the writers surrounded Quincy's bed and narrated the newly crafted ending with all the emotional resonance they could muster. As the last words echoed into silence, Quincy Rogers breathed his last contented breath, knowing his story had reached its perfect conclusion.
