Gloria
Gloria sat on the couch staring at the wall. She had to do it. She knew she had to do it. But she couldn’t make herself do it. She had to end things with Ryan; it just wasn’t fair for her to string him along while she was truly thinking of someone else. She reached for the phone, but as she was about to pick it up it rang.
“Hello?” She said.
“You’re talking to a no-longer virgin!” Randy’s excited voice yelled over the phone.
“What!?” Gloria said caught by surprise. She knew that Randy had been a virgin, although no one else did, or would have believed it. “Wait, with who?”
“NOEL!!!!!!!!” Randy scream seeped through Gloria’s phone speaker. Gloria said nothing. What? WHAT!? This cannot be happening! No! Gloria thought as she sat completely still. “OMG Gloria!!! It was sooooo great!” Randy continued only making it worse.
“What.” Gloria said hoping she was hearing things.
“I just had sex with the HOTTEST guy in Everglades!! AND it was AMAZING!!!!” Randy said still not understanding that Gloria was about to have a meltdown. Gloria was silent, but a hot feeling crept up inside her. She could feel her skin getting red and hear her breathing getting harder. “Hello?” Randy caught on that there was no response coming from the other end of the conversation. “Glo?”
“Uh... great.” Gloria said.
“You’re not excited for me?” Randy’s voice sounded hurt.
“Well.... sorry but you’ve just confirmed your status as a whore.” Gloria practically hissed.
“What the hell! Gloria!? What the hell is wrong with you! You know what, you’re just jealous!” Randy spat back.
“KISS MY ASS, YOU SLUT!” Gloria screamed and suddenly crushed the phone in her hand. She looked down at the broken pieces of what used to be a phone. The pieces were jagged and had put small, but deep, cuts in her hands. She dropped the “phone” to the floor and stormed into her bathroom. She started breathing even harder and looked in the mirror. Her eyes were dilated again and the pupil completely covered the colored part. She saw marks on her skin start to appear, slowly and only faint glimpses. She clawed at her arms trying to scratch the marks off. Her head spun. What is happening!?!?! Gloria thought. No matter what she did the marks wouldn’t go away and her eyes wouldn’t go back to normal. She grasped around her looking for the faucet to turn the water on. She had to keep her eyes closed because they were so sensitive to the light. She finally felt the cool metal in her hand and twisted it. She heard the water start to pour from the faucet and she put her hands under the water opening her eyes a little. The cuts that had just covered her hands where now slowly receding into healthy new skin, right before her eyes. The water burned a little against her skin. Gloria stood there, watching her hands heal, stunned. This is NOT normal. She thought.
Then she heard her mom walking down the hall toward her room and looked to the door. When she looked back into the mirror everything about her was back to normal. Her green eyes sparkled, her pale skin was soft and pale without a single mark, and her hands were soft with no imperfections.
Suddenly her mind fogged and a flash of memory appeared, or what seemed like a memory, appeared in her mind. It was Noel standing in the rain. His eyes looked like hers just had, and there were marks all over him. He was reaching out to grab her but something was pulling her back. He was crying. Then he held up a knife, the blade gleaming and was about to lung it into his abdomen when the vision ended. She felt sick. And dizzy. She fell to the floor. Was that a memory? Or a glimpse into the future? She had this strange feeling that it was the second. What had just happened?
