Short Story: Being Informed - Re-visited
Male's Point of View - Hypnosis
“Listen... I’ve done my research and according to everything I’ve read, you are completely wrong.” she said.
I couldn’t help but smile as she looked up at me, letting the pages from the book flip out one by one until the book closed.
“Wrong you say? I’m wrong about what exactly?” I asked.
“About hypnosis of course! Weren’t you listening to me a second ago?” she said, a bit annoyed.
“I’m so sorry my dear. Continue... What about hypnosis did I get wrong?” I asked.
“About it being so powerful that you can make people do whatever you want! Regardless of their personal beliefs and preferences.” she said. “It’s not like in the movies where they snap their fingers and the subject is forced to do whatever the hypnotist says. It’s just not possible!”
“Oh really?” I asked, a little amused. “So I was wrong... Does that mean that you feel even better about the fact that I’m hypnotizing you? That you feel even safer when you are in one of my trances?”
“Of course it does!" she said with a beaming smile. "I know you can’t make me do anything indecent or un-lady like.”
I chuckled.
“So you believe the books when they say that I can’t make you do anything you wouldn’t normally do? Is that it?” I asked.
“Exactly! Yesterday, you said you could.” she said. “Which got me thinking… So far you haven’t made me do anything extraordinary, but I was worried you might be right so I looked it up. And I was right! You can’t! So there!”
“I haven’t huh?” I asked, very amused by her line of thought. “Nothing about our current relationship screams out at you as being... Out of place? Wrong? Or even... Something you wouldn't normally do?”
“Nope! Nothing at all! Which, of course, proves my earlier point. You. Were. Wrong!” she said as she punctuated each word by pointing her book at me.
“Ok ok! I give up. Seems I was wrong…” I said. “But that would mean that everything we’ve played with so far in our sessions was perfectly fine with you? Even before I hypnotized you?”
“I... Huh... Yes... That’s what it means.” she said, suddenly unsure.
