I think you know how this story is going to go.

To be completely honest with you, I wasn't supposed to pop up for another four chapters. Narrating's a hard job, harder than you all think, and I needed some rest. Actually, I need a lot of rest, but that's besides the point. However, it was brought to my attention that I haven't "adequately" explained the formatting of this particular book to you, so here I am.

As you already know, Nigel Paxley met Saskia Bavaro on a cold winter night, blah blah blah. You already knows how that turns out. However, when little miss Saskia invites Nigel out, that's when things get interesting.

You see, everyone has a defining moment in their lives. It can be anything - a death, a birth, a marriage, a divorce. Or it could be something much smaller, something seemingly insignificant - a trip to Hawaii, buying a new brand of hot sauce, planting a tomato garden. It's different for all. In that moment, the choice you make shapes your entire future. Confused? Picture this.

You walk into your local shopping centre. You're loading your newly-bought groceries in your car. Your bag rips, and your oranges roll out onto the pavement. Annoyed, you go to pick them up, put them in another bag, and drive off home.

It's a pretty ordinary situation, am I right? Yeah, you can argue that it's not everyday you buy oranges or your bag rips, but stay on point. Would you still eat those oranges? Probably, after a good wash. But here's the thing.

What if those oranges were heavily contaminated with a deadly, fatal virus? 

If you eat those oranges, despite washing them, you could die, or become horribly sick.

If you decided that those oranges were now ruined and bruised and inedible, then congrats, you just avoided possibly dying. 

What? You must be thinking. Ripped grocery bags, contaminated oranges - the chances of that happening are like, one in a zillion?

To that, I would reply that you are absolutely correct, but I'm a Narrator, my job is to narrate, not to come up with hypothetical situations to prove a point. You do understand where I'm getting at though, right? It could be something big, it could be something small, but everyone has that moment - their life-changing choice. 

The story I'm trying to tell you shows two sides of a choice. 

Why? 

Well, that's up to you to decide.
