It was Franklin. I could not believe what I was seeing. It was him in flesh and bone.
"W-what are you doing here?" I shyly asked. How could be back after what I did to him. I can't deny that i do regret it, but he was back. Back even after what he said.
"Yea, I'm back," he said while smoking a cigarette. He was significantly taller than me, had a black leather jacket.
There was an unbearably awkward silence.
"Why?"
"I need revenge. What you did to me, how can anyone be so evil," he said while I bit my lip, "so I decided I needed revenge. I was not just gonna sit suffering g while you enjoyed life. I couldn't do that. It would eat me alove."
I was astonished. Seeing him again makes me want to be with him once more. But I felt threatened, I knew what he was capable of.
"What are you going to do with me?"
"Well, actually, I have more than one thing planned. It's one small thing that will make a bigger picture"
And I felt even more scared.
"I am a better person now. Please forgive me."
"Based on what you're wearing, you're obviously not a better person."
He isn't lying.
"I was going off on a date. I'm happy now," I said, obliging the truth, "I love this girl."
"This girl?"
He didn't know I'm lesbian.
"Yes. I love her. I'm willing to do anything for her."
"Well you loving people is what got me so hurt anyways. It's not safe for you to be with anyone."
And the thing is, he's saying the truth.
"I need to go, it's getting late, I nervously said, swerving off to the side.
He grabbed my arm.
"You will suffer for what you did to me. Trust me."
I walked into my car. I waited for him to leave, and when I saw him leave, I broke down. I just cried because I was so scared. I felt regret once again. After a few minutes of tears pouring down my cheeks, I cleaned my face and reapplied my make-up. I left for Marisun's house.
