Have you ever heard of the parallel universe theory? It is a hypothesis in which the same universe bifurcates into two and so on to infinity. The basic idea is that, with each option you choose, the events of your existence can be altered in an unpredictable way and, as crazy and unlikely as it may seem, any situation is possible in one of the various worlds that make up the infinite multiverse. In relation to this premise, for many years I have been obsessed with an idea; It is a bad choice I made a few years ago and I keep wondering what would have happened if I had let my feelings take over at that moment. But I better start by introducing myself and explaining the origin of my obsession: my name is Mario and I'm in love with Laura. You will wonder who Laura is; It's about my best friend. A fact that complicates the situation more than desired since, for fear of damaging our relationship, for a long time I have tried not to let my feelings go beyond the barrier of friendship. However, the only thing I have achieved has been to mask one piece of evidence: I love Laura. yes yes like that song that defends virginity until the wedding night: "I love Laura, but I'll wait until marriage." Me too! For a long time I have desired Laura in silence and, as expected, I have not eaten a breadstick. I don't even have the hope of the wedding night; As far as I know, we have no plans to marry, or to have a relationship beyond the brotherly. That's how I am, a handbook pageant. But don't think that it was always like this, there was a time when our lives could come together in something more than a friendship. An instant in which, if I hadn't screwed up all the way, the course of events could have changed our existence forever; Laura tried to kiss me and I cowardly rejected her. Now I live regretting every day that moment when I decided not to return my best friend's kiss, wondering what would have happened if I had succumbed to my desires. I keep imagining us together and happy in another parallel universe, another reality in which that approach gave rise to a beautiful relationship as a couple. On many occasions I have wanted to go back to the past and change that moment, sometimes I even dream of that situation, I relive that moment and I know what I should do, but I wake up and Laura is not by my side. So sad is the universe that has touched me! Or rather, the one I thing with my wrong decision. The truth is that I'm dying to know what would have happened in that other parallel reality in which we did kiss, what if we didn't have to choose and the different possibilities happened at the same time? Or better yet, what if I could live all the universes I loved Laura in?
