Ah gosh, it's finally finished! I know this story got no attention, but I adored writing it! I really loved how no names or thorough descriptions were given. I love how by the end, you have to think for yourself what's real and what isn't. I love it!

I know the ending seemed tricky, I wasn't really going anywhere with this story but after the fourth or fifth chapter, I imagined the ending and just guided it to it's destination. If you didn't fully understand, that's what I'm here to explain!

Explanation:

Chapters 1-11, are chapters the protagonist wrote for his psychology class at university about what too much independence can turn a person into. In this case, the girl became a beast. Some events that were the girls life, were actually his life. Chapter 12 he visualizes in his actual home the girl turning into a beast, and calling him the beast. Basically, a hallucination. The girl didn't morph into an animal, I described when he hit her that she was still human. I mean he went crazy and imagined a beast when he got angry to make himself feel better. So when he hits her, she calls him a beast. Because violent people are monsters. Chapter 13 he's handed in his study project, but he can't get the hallucination out of his head from that morning. He's actually contemplating there's a beast inside of him. He created the characters and what they did, what they said. He controlled their yelling and fighting and other cruel acts. So he really is the beast. And then he sees the flaxen haired girl he's been writing about, but because of that morning, he's unsure if it's another hallucination or reality.

I really love it because only a beast can write a beast, right? Am I the beast because I'm the author?

We're all beasts inside.
