[ WP ] You possess an ability to turn off one or more of your senses to heighten the others . Today is the day you make a mistake .

I've known how to use my powers since I was young. I could turn off my hearing when mom yelled, turn off my smelling when the dog farted, that sort of thing. I've been pushing it further recently. Yeah, I've gotten hurt a few times. But when you can turn off feeling pain, it's not so bad. 
 
 I purposely fell hard in front of a pretty girl at the park. I knew she would run over and I could ask for her number. I started jogging in her direction and just as I came upon her, I thought `` I do n't want to feel this.'' And then I fell. HARD. 
 
 I slammed down on the sidewalk, hitting my chin with incredible force. It was a messy ordeal. But it worked. She ran over in concern. I ended up with her number. It was my greatest day using my powers. 
 
 
 But I did not realize. 
 
 I did not know. 
 
 All of these years, my powers were the best thing about me. I used them to my advantage without consequence. I used them to shape my relationship and got myself exactly where I wanted to be in life. But as I sit here, watching my wife get ready for bed, the only thing in the world I want is for my powers to go away. I would do anything to go back and realize just how damaging it could all be. 
 
 Here I am, beckoning my bride to bed and I feel..... nothing.
