"See what happens when you don't learn that no means no?"

"I- I'm sorry, please- GAH! AHHHAH!"

At first I felt nauseous. There was so much red I thought I was going to pass out.

But I thought of Lui, how angry he was when she didn't leave him alone, and I found the strength to keep going.

"This is for disrespecting Lui." I cut, she screams. "This is for not acting like a lady." I cut, she screams. "And this is for hurting what's mine."

Screaming, screaming bloody murder. Even after I stopped cutting into her, she kept screaming and crying for help. Nobody could help her, though. Her parents were out and she lived pretty far from town.

"It's almost over now," I told her, dragging her to a armchair in the living room and sitting her down. Beside the armchair was a little end table with a lamp perched on it, and the plug was right behind the table- and the cord was covered by a curtain from the nearby window. At the moment, the only noise was the soft chatter coming from the TV.

"What- what are you going to do now?"

"Make it look like an accident. Haven't you heard of fire hazards?" Her eyes widened as she came to understand the meaning of my words. I went into the kitchen, pulling on a pair of oven mitts before I grabbed a pretty water glass and turn on the faucet, filling it about halfway. I slipped off one of the mitts and go back into the living room, setting the glass near the edge of the table.

The girl wanted to run but she couldn't, not with such big gashes in her feet.

She's weak. She's not even trying to save herself.

I turned the lamp on and knocked the glass over, spilling water right onto the plug. "Oops!" The light flickered on and off for a moment, then sparks flew from the plug and light the curtain on fire. "And you don't even have a smoke detector. How could your parents ever leave you alone?"

"I wish they didn't..."

"Yeah, I wish mine didn't either." I shrugged, glancing at the growing blaze. "But life isn't fair sometimes.

"I'll leave Lui alone!" She shouts. "J- Just please, g-g-get me outta here!"

"I know you would. But that's not the point- the point is, you didn't leave him alone when he told you to." I went to the front door, opening it up before going back into the kitchen and taking the mitt off. "Geeze, I sure hope your cat can get out in time. Shame that it knocked over the glass when you were sleeping. Had you been awake, you could have easily put the fire out."

I finally left the house, shutting the door with my foot and gaining distance from the house. It burned late into the night, and her parents weren't even back by the time it's burned to the ground.

I drew closer again- not into the house but close enough to see, checking to make sure there was nothing but a skeleton left in the house. There was barely even that. So I left, trudging all the way back to my apartment building in town. The desk manager doesn't ask where I've been, he doesn't even care.

I went in my apartment, locking the door and finding my bedroom. I change into my night clothes and throw my dirty ones into the wash, laying down on my bed.
