The Folly

Author's Note: This piece is about the Conflict and Resolution in the story A Crack In The Line. I wrote this to demonstrate my understanding of Conflicts and Resolutions.

In your life you have probably experienced a conflict of some sort. It probably was something about something school-related, or maybe it was just an everyday problem. What I'm trying to say is that your experience was most likely something ordinary. Imagine being in Alaric and Naia's shoes. Can you imagine being 100% identical, (except for your gender) living in the same house, sharing the same room, but not even knowing the other existed?

Alaric found a way to transport himself to another life. A life that was the exact opposite of his own. He met a girl named Naia, and she looked exactly like him. His mother had been in a train accident, and was given a 50-50 chance of surviving.Sadly Alex Underwood (Alaric's mother) hadn't made it through surgery. Naia's mom was in a train crash on the same day as Alaric's, and was also given a 50-50 chance of surviving. Luckily Alex Undrewood (Naia's Mother) had lived through surgery. Same mother, same birthday, same father, same eyes, same house. What was going on? The two of them visited each other frequently through the folly and discovered a mystery that might never be proven possible. What they discovered and were living through, was a split reality. Both kids were living almost identical lives in different versions of Withern Rise. More research leads them to an even larger factor, that maybe reality hadn't split when Alaric's mother had died. What if it split the day they were born, or even before that? 

The two will have to learn a little bit more about themselves and each other before they can really understand the history of their family tree. Will Alaric and Naia be able to use each other to find out the truth about their own lives? There were so many questions left unanswered. But the snow stopped falling; they are trapped. Now they have to wait until the next winter in order to get back to their own lives, and solve the mystery that is their own existence.
