Shocking Turn To The Throne

“Breaking News coming in just now. This announcement was made by the United States president during the annual United Nations conference. ‘I propose today that we let regular ordinary civilians become the next steps in leading the world. The world should learn by the voice of an average civilian in the population. They will determine the future this world shall go.’ That was President Rickston with the latest report. And now back to Cheryl with the latest…”


I turned off the television, my mind still attempting to process what my ears had just heard from the television broadcast. The president was going to allow a regular citizen to rule the world? That’s blasphemy! They’ll lead the world to chaos!


I heard a knock at the front door, so I got up from my seat and opened it. A mailman was standing outside with a massive box, about as tall as he was.


He said to me, “Hello, sir. Are you Harry Hillard?”


“Yes.”


“This package was sent to you from the White House. It’s allegedly something extremely important, so please handle this with caution. Thank you.”


With that, the mailman went back to his truck and drove off down the street. Baffled, I dragged the heavy package inside my house and laid it down in the living room, thankfully there was enough space.


I then got a knife from my kitchen and used it to cut open the huge package. When I opened it, the golden sunlight reflected into my open eyes, I immediately shielded my eyes from the light.


When I closed my windows, I took another look at the content. I found out it was a massive gold trophy of the White House. Under it, it stated “Congratulations, you’ve just been awarded the honor of becoming the next president! A limo shall arrive in 24 hours to pick you up and take you to the White House. Welcome to the office, new president!”
