The Quiz

By Wessam Eldein

Where most stories begin with a once upon a time, John Carter's narrative begins with the end.

Los Angeles, California. Monday, March 19, 2035, 10:10 PM. John Carter is typing away a letter and is interrupted by a loud bang. With a message popping up on every screen in his apartment, he is congratulated for being the oldest living human being on Earth.

A drone casually delivers the essentials to end his day. His favorite coffee, a sandwich, and a gun?

Placing his gun to the side, John puts his reading glasses on and wears a black robe matching his black-and-gray hair.

He resumes typing his suicide note.

Jump cut to 5:30 AM, March 3, 2025, in Brooklyn, New York. John Carter wakes up enthused and already getting in his pushups as he lives another day in paradise.

John was once a man enthusiastic about life, driven, waiting for the perfect adventure to stumble upon his desk. How could such a man suddenly want to end his life?
