I will never show mercy,
On that ancient city,
I'll see to it that I give it a cruel end.
P. F. CANYUL
I just needed to be beaten by Eduardo's girlfriend, that would be the icing on the cake this day couldn't get any worse.
- I'm sorry, I didn't mean to yell at you. - I said quickly.
I looked up and I could see that he was disconcerted, he soon changed his face, my words had hurt him.
-Don't apologize, I understand that you're sick of being in our class. - I answered, but his girlfriend Miranda was soon on her way to where we were.
When I arrived at the entrance of the house, I hurried to close the door and turn on the lights, I sighed relieved even though sometimes the dark beings followed me I felt that at home I was safe, although I could not say the same with the beings that came on every birthday or the dark beings that emanated a heavy and evil feeling.
They were different and managed to hurt me, unlike the souls of people that many people call ghosts, but I called them spirits, they were like a very translucent person that everyone could pass through except me, when I saw them I could feel a slight contact with them, they were not bad, they were beings that feel alone and always want to talk.
But I always remembered my mother's advice and tried to ignore everything that was not alive.
I didn't wait for my father since he wouldn't be back until very late, I had some juice and a chicken breast I sat at the table while I ate alone, maybe everyone thinks I'm used to this, but I'm not, I haven't had pleasant meals for years, I took a few bites, but it felt like a piece of cardboard going down my throat, for some reason I felt more lonely than ever again I could feel tears welling up.
-Stop being a fool Yulianne. -I said to myself, as I angrily wiped away the tears, I shouldn't cry I had promised mom that I would live and be happy, but it was as if that promise was further and further away and I would never get to keep it, every day that passed it was harder, she didn't see how hard it was to smile, it was as if she had taken all the happiness with her last breath 10 years ago.
-Forgive me mommy, I think I will never keep the promise I made to you..." I said in a whisper.
- Stop talking to the weirdo, don't apologize love. - he turned his gaze in my direction.
- Nobody would bother you here if you didn't think you were better than us ugly, you should go back to your castle of horror so nobody touches you, witch with those facades causes horror. - He said as he tried to push me, but I immediately avoided his hand.
He smiled mischievously.
-WHAT? I'm not good enough to touch you, you should feel horrified because I don't touch trash. - he said again as he gave me a mischievous look. I didn't answer, I didn't want to get into the game and I knew the others would follow her and start teasing me.
-Stop it, Miranda! - and grabbing her by the arm, he tried to drag her back. Miranda turned sharply towards him.
-Stop defending her or tell me, do you like this witch? - His face had transformed into a grimace of displeasure as he pounded her chest with his fist.
I didn't want to stay to watch their fight, I grabbed my backpack and headed for the exit, I just wanted to go home I was exhausted and my body ached all over my palms I was sure that when I undressed I would see dried blood on my knees, I walked quickly until I reached the bars of the school, that stretch went smoothly, I didn't turn around at all and continued on my way I didn't want to have another incident.
After 15 minutes walking I was about to reach the mailbox where I had seen the puppy, I approached carefully, to see if he was still there or if someone had taken pity on him, but a movement in the box confirmed that he was still there.
-Hello little friend," I said, as I approached to see him.
I could notice a couple a few meters away from me, when they heard me talking they looked at me strangely, I supposed they were disgusted that I was talking to a stray puppy, sometimes I talked to myself, so noticing that kind of looks in people was normal for me.
Suddenly I saw the empty mold had eaten all the ham rolls, with a smile on my face I felt the need to pet him, a gasp escaped my lips, my surprise was immense when I noticed that that black puppy was bigger, it was as if he had never been skinny and his fur was beautiful, I couldn't help but wonder if it was the same dog I saw in the morning.
It was as if in the morning he had been mistreated and malnourished and in one afternoon he would regain his health, he looked healthy and fluffy with beautiful lapis lazuli eyes. This puppy had something strange, I could not explain what it was, it caused me a very strange sensation, it was as if my body was near an electric fence, it caused my internal alarms to go off and I immediately ran towards the avenue, I just had to cross it and get home, I was ready to forget everything that had happened today.
