The Day She Cried

It was a joke that got out of hand.
A silly attempt to catfish the weird girl.
I wasn't supposed to actually like her.
And I certainly never meant to hurt her.

Yet, that's exactly what I did.

I destroyed Raven Murray's heart, and ultimately her life.

Now I'm paying for my part in her demise.
Jail time. Restitution. Guilt.
I'm no longer the happy, popular girl who had everything.

I have nothing and it's absolutely what I deserve.

Her brother, Rome, thinks I deserve less than nothing.
He wants me to hurt.
To feel the same pain she felt.
For me to drown in my own tears.

He'll stop at nothing to get his justice.

His obsession with tearing me down consumes him.
I become his single focus.

Somewhere along the way, the line between love and hate disappears.

I can't fall for the guy whose sister I killed, because he'll never be able to love me back.
But my heart says I already have...
