Chapter 23: This is some sick revenge.
*Maddy's POV*
"I TOLD YOU SO!" Mum screamed at me. I could only stand before her with tear stained cheeks.
"I told you so many times that he would break your heart and you didn't listen!" My mum's red face loomed in front of me.
"Well? Aren't you going to say something? He broke your heart!"
"I broke his first." I said weakly, my voice cracking.
"Stupid girl." She muttered before storming away.
I had driven home after the encounter with Harry and my mum had asked what was wrong when she saw me sobbing. I made the mistake of telling her the truth. I couldn't blame Harry, right? He had the sense not to stay with someone who used him. But now I feel used. The day after we broke up, he finds another girl. Why is it that whenever I like a boy, he finds a way to make me feel so disposable. I replay the sight of Harry and that bimbo kissing in my mind. I am fueled by the throbbing anger inside of me, and I go find my mum in the kitchen.
"Are you going to make another article?" I ask her. She looks startled.
"Why..?" She questions.
"I want to talk about that slutty boy and what he did to me. It's called revenge." I spit at her.
A wicked smile fills her face. She cackles evilly, and goes to fetch her notebook. She returns and we sit on the couch in the living room.
"Let's start at the beginning. How did you and Harry Styles meet?" Mum taps her pen against the paper.
"We met at a club. Then he took a special interest to me, and we started going out."
"And did you ever expect he would hurt you?"
"I always had a feeling he was checking out other girls. Or even cheating on me. I never thought it would hurt this bad, though." I lie through my teeth. I don't think, I just act on anger.
"How did he hurt you exactly?"
"Well, we were on a date. It was perfect until Harry abandoned me in the wilderness. I almost got lost in the woods. And he didn't even explain."
"That's horrible!" My mother exclaimed.
"I know. Then I went to see him the next day and found him kissing some other girl. They had slept together!!" I feel real tears spill over my eyes. That part was difficult to talk about, considering it was the truth.
"Wow. He's not very nice."
"He's horrible."
"And how did you respond to this?" Mum scribbled quickly in her notebook.
"I walked away. There was nothing else I could do."
"Because you weren't of any use to him anymore? Did he...did he get what he wanted?"
I nodded. "Yes. He charmed me, of course."
"Did you love Harry, darling?"
"I loved him so much. He was my world. Nothing mattered but him. When he left me, I was so hurt. I could hardly breath without him." I spoke honestly.
"That's adorable. And did he feel the same way?"
"He said he did. He was so confident with his feelings. But he lied. He was lying the whole time." I felt silent tears fall onto my lap.
"And are there any last words you would like to say about Harry Styles?" Mum tilted her head and looked at me expectantly.
I cleared my throat and swallowed the guilt that was eating at me, "Yes. He is bad news. He is only famous for his looks and will break your heart the first chance he gets. Don't get to close to him because he will only wound you. Thank you."
Mum nodded and finished writing my words.
I wasn't sure why I just did that. Didn't I still want Harry back? Yes, of course I did. But the thing is, he'll never take me back. And the pain ebbing at my chest was demanding to be heard. This will suffice. It's not like I had a chance of getting back together with Harry before. I might as well go all the way.
"Oh, and one more thing," I tell Mum, "Harry, I hate you."
