The Actor

“Kei, hello, are you listening to me?”

I turned my head around towards the source of the voice and met a familiar looking face. To describe what I felt at the time, Imagine being so angry that it actually made your blood boil. It would probably take something really big to do that. However, even though my mind was riddled with rage, I still managed to calm myself down and form a smile.
“Sorry honey, seems like I spaced out for a bit,” I answered back in an utterly adorable voice, shocking even myself.

“I think it's about time we get going,” replied Arlo, my boyfriend, and also my worst enemy.

I nodded and quietly followed him outside like any loyal girlfriend would. Whenever I was with Arlo, my mind would always go back to that one time when I lost all those dear to me. It was around 2 years ago, I had just started high school and was hanging out with my new friends at the mall, just like any other normal highschooler. After spending a few hours fooling around, I decided to call it a day and go home. Afterall, my parents would probably ground me again if I was late. I had expected to get some minor punishment at home for fooling around all day, but instead what awaited me was a bloodbath.

“What are you standing around for, come on in, it's cold outside,” came Arlos' gentle voice, contradicting his image that I had built in my mind.

I simply smiled and welcomed myself into his home. For someone who lived alone, the home was still quite lavishly furnished and clean. The sight disgusted me, I wanted to puke, while I had been scrambling to get money to meet my daily expenses, this murderer had been living his life like a king. I asked for directions towards the kitchen and got to work, afterall, I had come here to cook together with my boyfriend, like any normal couple would.

Once we had done the deed which we had decided upon, I asked for where his room was and told him that I wanted to take a shower, and he happily showed me the way. The fool, not that i minded it, he only made it easier for me to search his room for evidence.

After locking the door and confirming that no one could catch me in the act, I got to work. I wasn't just randomly searching, i had spent over a year learning all about my boyfriend/enemy and i knew that he had a diary, in which he kept everything. That diary was the sole reason I had come to his home.

I searched some common locations and found the diary right away, hidden under a pile of junk in one of his drawers. After confirming its contents I smiled like a sadist, I had spent over a year acting like a completely different person, but now it had all paid off. Using this I would now slowly break down my cute boyfriend and make his life a living hell. You know what they say, Always keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
