My friend and I trade lucky numbers, but I keep changing mine.
When I trade lucky numbers with a friend in the hospital waiting room, I keep revising the number I picked when my turn comes.
Scenes
- I change my number after hearing my friend’s. — I trade lucky numbers with a friend in the hospital waiting room. When my friend says a number, I change the one I just picked.
- My friend said a number first. — While we wait with our check-in slips, my friend picks a number first. When it’s my turn, I choose a different one so it won’t match.
- I forget my first number and pick again. — After I hear my friend’s number, the one they just said stands out more than the number I first had in mind. So I may change my choice.
- I write down my first number. — Tonight, before sharing numbers with my friend, I’ll jot down the first number that comes to mind. Even if it changes later, I can compare it with my first pick.
- Changing my number is part of the game. — I can keep enjoying trading numbers with my friend and simply notice when mine changes. That alone can show me how my choice unfolds.
