I'm still having a hard time comprehending the fact that has been sent to my head just a minute ago.
With everything that has happened in a day, now, my head's aching from so much information that I felt confused at everything.
I feel uncomfortable, like ants crawling into my whole body, I feel so stupid.
For the first time, I felt so foolish, so this is what it feels like to be fooled by someone you think you knew.
Everything that you've endured, the long days and nights of just living in this world like a dead person, the people that got hurt because of this ridiculous situation, and now she's screaming at me for fighting back?
Why?
If she knew then why? Why do this? Why make me suffer? Why let us fall into this loop of agony?
Why?
I looked at her with complex emotions, anger, and condemnation, fear, and anxiety mixing with one glance.
Her ruby red lips uplifted into a smirk as she looked at me with those innocent eyes- no, behind those pair of eyes hid the viciousness of this woman.
"Wanna know?"
I nodded, my eyes looking at her straight, afraid of missing any more information.
"Beg me" she mocked and even sat on a chair with taunting eyes.
Beg?
All I did was beg from the beginning. I beg for the An family to spare my parents and A'liu, begged the world to end this miserable life, and for the last time, begging for the heavens to let me die peacefully.
I have no dignity, nor any pride left in my bones, I have nothing but the endless suffering string in my fate.
So I begged, I lowered myself and plead to her.
She didn't disappoint but instead told a story.
"Once upon a time, there was a naive little princess and she suddenly left her kingdom. She found her prince charming and fell in love with him but guess what?" She tilted her head as if she was reminiscing.
"She soon finds out that her prince charming already has his princess. The little princess wouldn't back out and fought for her love and then lost. Pitiful princess, such a delicate naive princess, why can't she get what she wanted?" She asked out loud with a sorrowful tone but then her eyes glean in viciousness.
"She was reborn and found out that her life was nothing but a stepping stone. So she robbed her life and took her fate. She became the main character and let that vixen suffer!"
Then her eyes, filled with hatred looked at her horrified ones and asked.
"So, did you like my story?" She smirked, it didn't take long for me to realize what the story is all about.
It was about our life.
My body grew rigid, my head circles around her story and made me collapse on the floor.
I wanted to cry, shout for injustice, and fight back.
How dare she rob me of my life?! Why did she make me suffer so much?! Why do I have to experience things that I shouldn't have?
"W-Why, you should've... ask me... why rob me of my f-fate?!" I spat out, bitterness coating my voice as I remembered the struggles I have to take in her place.
"Because you deserve it"
"I don't, no one does, but you-" I glared at her, my veins thrumming in what, and continued "You're just a bitter substitute who robs someone else's e life to become successful"
Her eyes flashed in ire and she slapped me so hard I felt blood on my lips but I didn't care. I couldn't care less about it and even wanted to kill her.
Even if I went through her fate, I would never voluntarily injure someone nor see people as dispensable.
"You won today, but not forever" she smirked and pulled a gun behind her. "So, let's start all over again shall we?"
