[DO NOT USE NOISE CANCELLATION HEADPHONES] You are nothing more than a bystander to other's stories. Each person lives differently than you, our paths aren't the same. There is so much history that follows a person - even the mind can't fully comprehend the infinite possibilities of another's life. You are nothing more than a listener and a observer to life.

Who Left Their Phone?

You find yourself listening into a conversation from the past - two college students happen upon this phone and debate on what to do. You are nothing but a bystander, so you wait to see what their decision may be.
