The Lies I Told Myself

[3] Kayla Marie Scott

I don't want to wake up today. I never want to, but usually I get right up because what's the reason of postponing waking up when you have to anyway? But today, today I want to sleep in. They won't take me away if I don't go to school for one day. I promise I'll go tomorrow.

*Door Bell Chimes*
Who the hell is at my door?! I have no friends nor family so I'm not answering. Probably some church nuts.
*Bell Chimes Again*
They're persistent. Guess I'll answer.
*Door Flies Open*
"I don't care about your stupid church shit! LEAVE!"
"Ahh! I don't really go to church, but I'll leave. Sorry to bother you.."
"Wait, you're that girl from yesterday. I never got your name. Tell me."
"Kayla Scott. Well since I know your middle name, I'll tell you mine. Kayla Marie Scott. Nice to formally meet you Fel.. I mean Jakob. Hehe."
"Sure, cool to meet you too. Why are you here?"
"Well, uhh, when you left yesterday I found your wallet on the ground. So I brought it to you, hoping you were home so we could talk also."
"Why do you wanna talk to me?"
*She's Walked back To In Dront Of The Door Now*
"Because you're my idol"
Why.. why do you smile like that, and at me too? Stop. I don't need unnecessary emotions in my life. I'm atoning and I will be until I die. I do not deserve that smile.
"Leave."
"No."
She's still smiling? Also rejecting me bluntly.
"Leave."
"Nope."
"Why not?"
"Because I wanna' talk to you."
"Ugh. Then come in. So I will be comfortable, as much as I can be anyway."
"Will do!"
She's cheerily skipping.... into my house..? What a freak.
"What do you want to talk about?"
"You."
"Ugh. Okay, what about me?"
"Everything."
"Just ask questions. I don't know what to say or where to start. I'll answer all with honesty."
"Okay. Whats your favorite color? Do you have any hobbies, if so what are they? What's your favorite food? Any friends? Probably not, scratch that. What kind of girls do you like, in detail please? Why are you always wearing long sleeves, is your house always an oven like this? Why are you so clean? Boys usually leave messes everywhere. Do you live with anyone, if so who?"
"Black is my favorite color. Sleeping is my only hobby. I eat people for food. I like nobody. I'm always cold so yes. Because messes would be inconvenient. I live alone."
"That was blunt. You're no fun. I'm sure you don't actually eat people so what's your real favorite food?"
"Whatever's in the fridge or the cheapest in the store."
"Woah, that's simple. Why so?"
"I only get about three hundred dollars a month for living expenses, besides rent for this apartment."
"How come you don't pay for the apartment?"
"Oh, because the government does."
