It's Friday morning, and I walk to the park. I know it's Friday, but Brady lent me a jacket the other day, and I thought he might be here. I walk on the way to our secret spot. Up ahead there's a bend in the path, and a bench sits on the left side. Two people sit on the bench. I can't tell who they are, but I can see them vigorously kissing each other. Not really passionate, more like sloppy.
As I quietly approach the bench not wanting to bother them, I quickly identify the boy.
Brady.
I can't believe he would betray me like that.
I thought we had something special.
But of course, I was wrong.
As everyone at my old school knew, I don't let boys treat me this way.
I approach the bench, and clear my throat.
They both part, and look up.
"Hey honey! I just thought I'd drop by and give you your jacket back, but it looks like she's keeping you plenty warm." I say.
The girl asks in a stupid, prissy tone, "Brady...who is this?" She smiles a little bit, confused.
"I'm his girlfriend." I intervene. "Well, was."
He begins to stutter. "I-I-"
I slap him hard across the face, leaving a cold mark.
"Now I know that everything was just a lie. But that's okay. I already have other boys lined up to say hi. He's all yours, honey." I strut away, throwing his jacket behind me into the mud.
Hah. I always knew he was fake, I was just to stupid to admit it. He was the only one in this town that I knew, and I was alone, and he made me feel less alone. I fell for him. Simple as that.
"You've already got me. Hah." I mumble.
