"I doesn't matter how much time you spent dilly dallying around me. I won't go easy on you." I turn to face the girl beside me, playing like a child on the monkey bars while sucking on a lollipop. I have a strong urge to rip it out of her mouth maybe because I'm just that mad. When had such a petty thing become so satisfying to imagine? Suddenly she let go, I jumped off the swing ready to catch her, instead I find myself face to face with her. She's hanging from the monkey bars with the curve of her legs, the lollipop has fallen on the ground. Strangely I'm relieved but the relief leaves quickly because she says,"That's not what I intended at all." With a pout. This pout... Just as it came it leaves as she grins,"I'll beat you fair and square." *** All fear, pain, and humiliation is just in your head. That's what Jess tells herself to cope. Everything's not quite real or fake. Why be passionate about something when you won't ever end up at the top, why care so much about about things that will crumble and come to an end? And why does that girl that cares so much about such useless thing keep bothering her, even when she's not physically there?
