Alternate Ending

Alternate Ending:


                After being severely tortured by O’Brien, Winson is relased on what seems sort o like a probation. He has a week to spend on his own, and is to return back to O’Brien when his time is up. Given specific instruction, and such a strict time frame Winston fears what is in store for him once he returns back to O’Brien. During this week he decided to find Julia. Day by day he looks for her at places where they used to meet, or places that they use to pass by on the daily. After no luck for four consecutive days, he nearly comes close to giving up. After a long day of searching and not finding he buys some of the cheapest coffee and sits around thinking and contemplating his next move. Since being released he feels so indifferent about everything and is so uncomfortable being out in the open again. It was like he had almost forgotten what it was like. He slowly begins to have recollection of before, and begins to evaluate in the best estimate, how long he was actually held hostage. He following day he begins his search as usual and to his surprise, he finds her. He spots her from a distance, while she is drinking victory coffee alone. He stares at her for a moment trying to muster up the courage to speak with her. He struggles to gain that confidence because he can’t decipher the emotions her face is portraying, because she isn’t portraying any. After staring at her for a while, he decides to walk up to her. As he is on his way, he seeks a well built handsome man take a seat directly in front of Julia. She grins happily as she appears to gaze at him romantically. Winston stops there and contemplates even taking a step closer to her. He’s aware that he only has two days left until he is to return to O’Brien. Despite the man sitting here, he decided to approach Julia. She notices him but lacks enthusiasm. On the contrary, she seems to look at him in disgust. Of course Winston has lost a dramatic amount of weight, as the whitening of his hair has progressed. Regardless he proceeds to stretch out his arm in hopes for a formal greeting with Julia. She looks down at his hand, and almost forcefully shakes it. Winston can feel the negative vibes she sets off with simply looking at him. Quickly after shaking his hand, she wipes her hand on her jeans, and turns her body to face the man in front of her. Without any further hesitation, Winston begins to walk away. The neglect that Winston received was unconceivable to him. However more than making him sad, it infuriated him. Winston had two days remaining before he returned to room 101, but the amount of hate that he had mustered up in those five days, made him extremely careless about everything. Without hesitation or fear, he walked back to room 101. Upon arrival, O’Brien informs him that he has two days left to wander about. Winston tells him that he is well aware, but no longer wishes to remain outside. Winston did have to be asked twice, he lead Winston to room 101 and told him that he had a surprise for him. For some strange reason, Winton didn’t expect anything bad. He whole heartedly believed that O’Brien had a decent surprise for him. It was until he heard the squeaking of rats that he thought otherwise. Winston’s body shut off in an immense fear. Winston tried so hard to lack any emotion portraying through his face, but he was too frightened. O’Brien seemed to feed off of his fear. O’Brien asked Winston for the last time if he loved and respected Big Brother. Winston, in dramatic fear of the rats blurted out his new found love for Big Brother. However, O’Brien knew that Winston only told him what he wanted to hear due to the rats. Winston’s lies infuriated him, and so he caged three savage rats in a cage that barely fitted Winston’s head. He scram four minutes, Winston’s face couldn’t be recognizable. After 15 minutes, it seemed as though Winston were already dead, however he still had a pulse. He had gone into complete shock while the rats still viciously ate at his face. It took all of Winston’s will power, but he mumbled the word “Brotherhood” before one of the rats ferociously bit his eye socket. Winston died slowly and painful, while O’Brien watch in sick fulfillment.
