A Glimpse of Her

I was willing to give up everything for her, I could even change my ways if I have to, I could even abandon my dearest brother, only for her. I know that we lived in two different worlds, too far from each other.

Who would have thought that we were to meet, and that I'd fall in love with her?

Love, a word that our kind knows nothing of. All we know is to hate, to hurt, to curse, to destroy what we can, and do whatever we want. That was until I met her, it was almost a year now.

I was strolling by the river, when I saw an old man, weak as he is, I tried to trip him so he'd fall into the river, but she arrived and called a man and told him to catch and help the poor old man. He did not fall, for he was caught by the young man's strong arms. I ran, trying to decide whether to laugh or to get angry. The old man did not fall, but he hurt his back and that was good enough for me.

I was near the city's center when I happened to see that same woman again. I took another direction, away from her. I was walking by the city streets then, when I saw a man in the alley, smoking, Marijuana perhaps? I walked towards him and as the distance between us decreased, I could smell the strong odor coming from him, the smell of death. Then on the far corner of the street was a cop. I walked towards the lazy cop and whispered to his ear, "That man seems to be enjoying himself over there. Don't you want some of that? I think that you're lousy life needs a little excitement, why not take the weed and shoot that good for nothing louse and take the weed with you. Tell the others that you had to shoot him because he attacked you."

Just a few words and the cop was off. He went to the man's direction and shot him from a short distance.

Perfect hit! The man did not move after his body has hit the ground. The cop snickered and took the weed with him.
