It was Friday at that time, i was switching through the channels until i came across one television show, politically incorrect. One of the guests is who they call the "Antichrist Superstar" or "The God of Fuck", Marilyn Manson, i wasn't really a fan of him at that time, he was just any other celebrity for me not until i listened to his views about christians and how they affect society and the youth, something about him seemed so mesmerizing, is it the way he tucks his hair behind his ear or how smart he talks or maybe even the deepness of his voice? I wasn't really sure at that moment why i liked him so much but i guess i did, i thought that it was just me but it turns out it was every girl who watched him that night in that show, and maybe it's also because it was part of his plan, an experiment on society, like how the Christians made us believe that god is almighty and great, well in this case, he made us, me, believe that he loves me.
The next day after watching that show i got a call from my only bestfriend.
"Hey Eve i was wondering if you wanna go with me to a concert? It's Marilyn Manson, turns out that he's in town and doing a small show nearby, please just go with me, i promise to pay for your ticket and snacks." Yes, my name is Eve, short for Evelyn, and that's my bestfriend Josephine, she has been a fan of Manson long before i even knew who he was. You see, Josephine gets anxious when she's alone especially in crowded areas like concerts and stuff, that's why she's always bugging me to come with her and as a good friend, i always say yes. She was born rich because her father owns a couple of businesses in our town, i met her during kindergarten, she was the only person i had the guts to talk to and thank god it turned out good.
"That would be fine i guess, it's been a long time since i've been in a concert." I may sound unamused but i was actually pretty excited on the inside.
"Yey! It's tomorrow by the way, the concert starts at 9 p.m. so i'll pick you up at 8. I'm so excited, i'll also get us some backstage passes! I need to go now, bye!" I remember chuckling at her response, she was so excited for nothing.
______________________________________________________Hello, i hope that was a decent start. By the way, if you still haven't noticed, Eve or Evelyn is telling this story which means that the damage has already been done.
