- 5.
She wasn’t nice like she was around Mark.
She saw my suitcase and raised an eyebrow.
“Break up?”
She started to laugh.
She flicked some ash on me and started to
laugh.
“Sarah, you are a mess.”
“I told you to break up with Mark.
Now you lost your stock. Do you know what
<
you lost?”
She shook her head.
She had been like this when she started.
She told me to break up with Mark,
But she knew how to pretend, and she was
nice to Mark.
I was mad, and Mark was on her side.
Later, I didn’t care.
But seeing Brenda didn’t make me mad, I just
thought it was funny, that Brenda made me
so mad.
I cared too much.
“Mark really cares about me. Did you know he
gave me money to buy the stock?”
Brenda just kept talking.
I walked up to her.
“Are you going to hit me?”
L
Brenda raised her eyebrows.
She spit smoke in my face.
I said nothing.
I took the cigarette and, while she was scared, I grabbed her chin.
I put the cigarette in her mouth.
“Ah!”
Brenda spat it out, but it still burned her.
“Sarah, what the hell?!”
She was angry and was going to grab my
hair.
But she stopped herself, and ran over to
Mark.
“Mark, she just burnt me with a cigarette. It
hurts.”
She showed her tongue.
Mark would get mad and yell at me and force
me to apologize.
She showed her tongue.
Mark would get mad and yell at me and force
me to apologize.
I just turned to leave.
Mark didn’t hear her, and said, “Sarah, where
are you going? Let me take you.”
