A FULL CIRCLE #2

A good girl turns into a bitch after a boy screws her over because he is a jackass after his heart was broken by a girl whose heart was broken by another boy.

"Ella?"

"Yeah Ben?"

"Can we talk?"

".... Sure..."

"I don't think I can do this anymore."

"What?"

"It isn't you. It's me. I don't think I see you the same anymore."

"Is it... Is it because I'm not ready to take this further?"

"No..."

"Is it because I can't come to the party tomorrow?"

"No... Ella. Seriously, don't worry."

"Is it because I have braces? I am getting them off soon. My hair? My clothes?"

"Ella... Please, just leave it."

"Why can't we talk about it?!"

Footsteps.

Begins to cry.

***

"Hey Ella."

"Mark..." Sighs.

"Are you okay?"

"I can't do this Mark."

"Wait... What?"

"Mark- it's over. We aren't together anymore."

"What?! Aren't we going to talk about this?!"

"No."

"Ella. Wait... STOP! You are being irrational and stupid."

Walks off.

"ELLA- YOU ARE THE BIGGEST BÎTCH I HAVE EVER MET."

***

"Hi Mark."

"What do you want?"

"I was... Just saying hi... I'm sorry."

"Look, Lucy just forget about it. Forget about us. We are some weird fantasy you have conjured up. We are not together."

"Mark? Are you serious? What about.... What about after the game on Friday?"

"We are over."

"But-"

Storms off.

***

The cries of a broken heart.

The cries of a girl on the bathroom floor.

The angry slams of a locker from the heart-broken boy.

The bîtch ignoring the boy.

The jackass brushing past the girl.

The change begins.

The girl to the bîtch- a complete makeover.

The boy to jackass- an attitude adjustment.

***

Ben to Ella to Mark to Lucy.

The circle begins again.

And again.

And again.
