Beyond Surface

Chapter 32 (II)_ Burns.

Jireh's Point of View (P.O.V)

Song Credit: Eminem ft. Rihanna: Love The Way You Lie.

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
Well that's alright, because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
Well that's alright, because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie

I can't tell you what it really is
I can only tell you what it feels like
And right now there's a steel knife, in my windpipe
I can't breathe, but I still fight, while I can fight
As long as the wrong feels right, it's like I'm in flight
High off of love drunk from my hate
It's like I'm huffing paint and I love her the more I suffer
I suffocate and right before I'm about to drown

'You know what Jireh?. I've played my parts, acted my roles and done my best, now you do yours', she said angrily as I watched her viberating with anger and was obviously shaking as she looked straight into my damp eyes.

She then suddenly began putting on her shoes in frustration, and I looked at the black,shiny, leather silehoutte she carefully dipped her feet into, before she stood up to leave.

Them damn silehoutte!. Those shoes got lives in em. They're beautiful. Just look at them!.

Yes, I see them. They're pretty beautiful.

Exactly. Now how's the lady wearing them?. How does she look?.

She's the most beautiful woman in the world.

Fine, you fool. Now say it to her. Not me dumbass.

I watched as her hips swung when she walked towards the table to get her bag, and I swear her ass seemed bigger than they were the last time I saw her.

Great dude. We love ass and boobs, and now we've got a chance. Let's make use of it.

Copy that man!. Copy that!.

I took long strides towards her and I was right beside her in no time, with a newly found energy and confidence injected into me by my subconsciousness. But she only began walking towards the door.

"Babes, I did it for you. Everything was for you!", I said to her without cause and without wasting any further time, and iy made her halt suddenly.

'There's something you need to know', I continued, and she slowly turned around, to face me. I looked up into her eyes, and found her mouth wide opened.

'Everything was for you Anny', I said again, and tears gathered up in my eyes faster than ever, with my heart heaving and bitter and painful that I had to spill my most guarded, dirtiest, long-time secret to the love of my life.

She looked at my whole figure, to and fro, for a couple of seconds with her agape mouth, before bursting into a loud, long laugh.

I watched as she laughed heartily, using her right palm to cover her mouth and her left hand, stretched out, with the palm facing me, in a 'wait' gesture.

Look at that flawlessness right there!. God!!.

For as long as she laughed, I felt a sudden relief, which made me forget all the pains and troubles I had felt for the past days. The manner in which her almost perfect dentition, which consisted long, crystal white teeth, shone under the white lights that flashed from my office ceiling, made me want to take her into my arms and never let her go again.
