If there's one thing that I consider to be real close to having a superpower, it is being aware and smart enough to be able to predict what might happen next in any situation and be very accurate with your prediction.
Personally, whenever that happens to me, it makes me feel like I was able to predict the future, no matter how insignificant that thing was. And ever since I realized that there are people out there who don't really have the ability to think this far, it has made being able to do it feel a lot more important to me.
For example, something silly and not significant happened yesterday, but it's the only story I can think of at the moment, so I guess I will be telling you guys.
It's no news by now that the electricity supply over here isn't that great, so many people tend to rely on power banks to keep their phones on. Well, I had received a call from my aunt yesterday asking me to go help her buy a bigger power bank, one that would last her for days so that she doesn't get to rely on the power supply anymore to have her phones on at all times.
She previously had a good power bank but felt the need to get a better one, one with over 60,000 mAh worth of battery life.
At the time I had received the task from her, my phone was low, so I had plugged it into my power bank that had previously been given to me by my brother and took it along with me to go get the house. I bought the power bank and was immediately on my way to her house.
Now I knew that one thing was going to happen for certain: she was going to hand over her previous power bank to me because she obviously didn't need two of those. But just as the bus stopped right in front of her house, my brain started working and thinking of possible scenarios that could happen and eventually make her not want to hand over the power bank to me.
That was when my eyes fell on the power bank in my hand, my own power bank. I immediately understood that if she saw me with that power bank, she would most likely want to take back that one from me and hand over the other one to me simply because there's nothing wrong with her having a backup power bank for emergencies, especially seeing how mine was a smaller one that she could easily carry everywhere, unlike the new one I got for her that was a lot bigger and heavier.
So I had immediately hidden my power bank before stepping into her place. By the time I was in and out of her place, she not only asked about my power bank but also had wanted to take it, like I predicted. But that ended up not happening, all thanks to me thinking ahead and being able to predict everything perfectly.
