Coop

By Elle Bee

Who was Coop before he was The Hitchhiker? Was he always confident that his ability was a gift? When did he let his parents in on the secret? How did they respond?

Before Coop became The Hitchhiker, he was a normal boy, with a dark secret. He carried the weight of a curse with him constantly. Whenever someone touched him, their thoughts and emotions flooded his mind. The fear of being thought of as crazy by ones own parents can be traumatizing! However, God had something great in store for this young man. Not a curse, but a gift..

This short story covers two different instances. It goes back in time, to eight year old Coop, before his parents knew about his mind reading ability. As well as simultaneously showing him as an adult and confront his parents about using his gift for God's kingdom.

The tale shows Coop change from thinking of his ability as a curse to being ready to see how God will use it for good. It is a short glimpse at Coop before he became The Hitchhiker.

I was born in San Antonio, Texas. At a young age I discovered my talent for writing and knew, one day, it would be my career. Soon, however, that desire was pushed aside as I entered high school, graduated, and moved on.No matter where I lived, everything transformed into a story before my eyes. Simple nights working at the coffee shop could easily be turned into grand adventures. As well as a day working in the yard with children, and other "mundane" tasks. I was never without a good story.In 2011, I finally buckled down and started typing out and saving my stories. Although, It wasn't until I took a trip across the world that I gathered the courage to share my writing with others.
