Suzy’s Strange Saga
“Well, if you want to look for a job, just come in and see me and we can look together.” You say.
“Okay, maybe. First, I’m going to take these sheets and blankets and throw ‘em in the wash though.” Julie replies.
The pair of you head downstairs and part company as you head into your room and she goes into the basement. (It still feels odd to NOT go into the basement when heading to your room)
You lay down on your bed/couch, open up your laptop and prepare for the unfun task of looking for a job.
Ten minutes in and you’ve already gotten off track. You’re playing some flash game, but your mind keeps occasionally thinking about Bobby. You start to get upset again and think about calling him.
You pick up the phone and think of how you really shouldn’t do this, especially since you fully believe that he was being the asshole in this situation, but you can’t just let it end the way it did. You don’t know why, maybe its because he’s the first guy you’ve ever seriously been with and you can’t quite let go yet.
“Hey.” Bobby says on the other end of the phone. You’re sort of surprised that he picked up after only two rings.
“Bobby… I just want to say a few more things…” you say.
“Suzy I don’t want to fight with you. So…”
“No, it’s not that. Look I just want to say, I’m sorry I insulted your religion. I know how important it is to you.”
“Well I appreciate that. Thank you.”
“I just don’t want things to end like that last conversation we had. Our time together was special to me and I don’t want those memories to be completely soiled because we had a bad break up.”
“I agree as well…I know I probably shouldn’t say this, because it only makes this break up even harder, but I ALMOST came close to abandoning everything for you…it just…just…”
“I know. It was just too much.”
Bobby on the other end of the phone is silent, but you think you hear sniffling. Of course this makes your eyes water too.
“I think… (sniffle) I think I’m always going to love you Suzy.” Bobby says. “I have to go….bye.” Bobby says and abruptly hangs up.
Now you’re really upset. You knew you shouldn’t have called. You almost think it was better when you parted thinking he was a complete asshole. He sounded so sad, you wonder if maybe, just MAYBE you could convince him if you went and saw him one more time.
You get the idea. You’re going to do it, because what you had with Bobby is worth fighting for!
You leave your room and start shouting to Julie as you go down the basement stairs
“Hey Julie! I know you’ll probably think this is a bad idea, but I want to go talk things out with Bobby one last time. He and I have so much history, so do you know if Donna has an extra set of keys to her… Aaaaaaaahhh!” you scream when you see Johnny standing over Julie’s bloody body with a knife in hand.
Johnny doesn’t even flinch, he just smiles at you like nothing is wrong.
“Bobby? …you have a boyfriend? Your sister didn’t tell me that…oh well…” he says flatly.
Panic and fear fill every inch of your body and you instantly turn and run back upstairs.
You get to the top step and open the door just before you feel a sharp pain strike hard into your back. You manage to keep from falling backwards and instead fall forward so that you’re half way on the basement steps and half on the ground floor.
Trying to fight through the pain, you attempt to stand back up and stumble in the process. Attempting to grab the knife in your back doesn’t help either.
You manage to get partially down the hallway before Johnny catches up to you again. You are grabbed roughly and then thrown face first into the floor as he twists the knife in your back. You scream out for help, but there is none to be had.
“Stop screaming you fucking bitch! Why do you always scream!? I’m doing this for your own good! I can be your boyfriend! I can be a better boyfriend!” Johnny shouts as he attempts to strip off your clothes. The only consolation to your final fate is that you struggle so much that Johnny cuts your throat before he can rape you.
Not that it stops him from doing so after you’re already dead of course.
