ME: "Who would've known that my backstabbing friend would run for my man!? I yell as she stares at me with so much pain in her eyes.
ME:Who would've known that you can be friends with someone for 20 years just turn their back on you!? As tears began falling down her face she speaks, " I"m so sorry for hurting you, I never meant for thi....."
I smacked her dead in her face, as her face fell lifelessly.
ME: Who would've known it would've made me so heartless? How could they have done this too me? Did I do something wrong? No, it couldn't have been me.
I walk towards my soon-to- be dead husband. I stare at him with so much hate, when all it really was, was pain. I wanted him so bad, everything about him I wanted. I wanted my man again but it will never be the same. The more I thought about everything the more I became infuriated with the thought of how I was treated, and the cards I was dealt with. My chest began heaving up and down as I angrily walk towards the table and grab the gun.
I began speaking, " My first love, my first trust, my first kiss, my first kid, my first everything." As I stared him in his face with his bare body tied to the chains, I stare at all I use to have and was highly disgusted that I shared a man with my best friend by accident. I began speaking again with a small smirk sliding across my lips, " Now you will be my first death."
