This Girl

Perhaps I was better person than most or maybe I was just more observant. I seldom disliked a person and I have never hated anyone. Those who I did dislike I took no action against, I rarely felt any animosity towards them for a sustainable amount of time. I simply didn’t care for them and acted in a neutral manner. I suppose I’m just easy going in that sense. Yet as I looked at the pretty girl besides me with the curly hair and scattered freckles I could think of nothing more than ways to hurt her. For this girl had injured a dear friend of mine and that I could not let pass. I would blatantly let myself be bullied and mocked, I didn’t care a bit if someone walked all over me, but my friends were a completely different matter. At the slightest notion of insult I would defend them with a furry that few knew to be inside of me. For my close friends and good acquaintances I stood firm, I was an iron shield around the group I cared for.

This beautiful girl with natural charisma and polished facade had crossed a line and I wished for nothing more than to make her feel pain in some way. I was not polite when she sat next to me but I was not necessarily rude either. I replied when she spoke but offered nothing more. As she batted her eyelashes and smiled coolly I thought of kicking open the bus doors and throwing her into the street. Of digging my hand deep into her chest and ripping out her heart, making her watch as I ground it under my foot. And why not? Wasn’t that exactly what she had done to him? Made him watch as she destroyed his heart. She came offering love but left nothing more than sensual memories. Snatched his soul with sneaky hands and toted it around like a trophy. Dangled him from a string like a toy that she never intended to keep.

This seductive frame hidden under a modest coat. This silly girl that laughed at his pain and then looked at me with no sorrow in her eyes. I wished sincerely to take something from her that would cause the same sense of loss that he felt. I yearned with unwaivering conviction to crush her spirit but had to hold myself back. For the same reason that I hated her I could not destroy her, because he still loved her. As rational as some may be, as intelligent and clever as we may think we are, one thing we can never change is the way we feel. A heart beats separately from the mind and cannot in any way be controlled. So as long as he still held her dear, despite all she had done, I could make no action against her. The crooked girl with the devil in her soul. She made a parting comment and walked away, and I let her go in peace. I held my actions out of respect for him but killed her with the look I gave her back. Marked her for death the moment I was free to act.
