A bit of a book

Because she could

Because I could

"Why did you do it? Can you at least tell me this, why did you kill him?" I whispered calmly

She shrugged.

"Because I could."

A bubble of anger popped inside of me.

"Because you could?" I repeated her words

"That's what I said" she answered  unconcerned.

"You killed my father. Because. You. Could?" I said quietly.

She nodded grinning.

"And you couldn't stop me" she laughed.

And I cracked.

"YOU KILLED HIM" I screamed shoving her against the wall.

"YOU KILLED MY BEST FRIEND, because you could!?" I said through clenched teeth.

"Gee, isn't it sad that the only friend you had was that sickening excuse of a human being?" She said laughing.

I'll take that as an invitation to kill her. But I'm not going to.
I'm going to ruin her life. Slowly. And painfully.

I released her walking away.

"Well then" she said

"I'm feeling really stabby right now, get lost!" I reply.

"You coward" she laughs.

I turn to her giving her a small smile.

"I decided I didn't need to kill someone who his already brain dead" I shrugged walking through the front door.

"Bye mother" I said before slamming the door behind me.
