Allow me to tell you a story. There is no innocence in this story, there is no justice in this story. This story will never have justice, and neither side will ever forget the wrongs committed by the other side. This is the beginning of a feud, one that will continue long after the reasons for it are forgotten. Sides have been chosen, and unforgivable actions have been taken on both sides.
There was once a twisted daughter of Cain. She had been through hell in her short life and had settled in on one unhealthy coping mechanism after another. Drugs, Alcohol, Cigarettes, Caffeine, Self mutilation, Etc. One day she woke up and decided to change. She no longer would lament the wrongs she had been dealt in her 14 year life. Lets call her Georgette.
She decided to seek help, and she found it in the walls of a private highschool in the next town. This school was set up for kids just like her, and she felt right at home. One of the first people she met at this school was a girl of the age of 16 by the name of Robin. Robin came with her own set of luggage, but the two hit it off almost immediately.
Robin and Georgette had an interesting relationship. They were thick as thieves, but neither one was particularly kind to the other. Robin instilled such insecurity in Georgette that she started to starve herself. Every time the two interacted, Robin would make some remark about 'chunky Georgette' or her lack of a need for a coat because of her blubber. Georgette was far from innocent, though.
Georgette was very dominant and passive aggressive at times. Georgette was very manipulative. She manipulated Robin in such a way that no one other than Georgette herself knew that Robin did not actually come up with these ideas.
Fast forward 5 years and the two took a trip across the country together. Their plan was to get away for the weekend, but upon arrival, Georgette did not want to leave. Robin didn't either, and the manipulation of Robin to stay had been easier than Georgette had expected. The situation even ended with Robin believing she had convinced Georgette to stay.
Robin was sleeping with the host of their little vacation, and so when Georgette returned home to collect her things, Robin stayed. The plan was for Georgette to be picked up in a week, but she was to contact Robin if there was trouble.
There was trouble. Georgette's father slapped her across the face unprovoked(there was a reason she did not want to return). Panicked, Georgette contacted Robin immediately but was written off. Thankfully, another friend stepped up to the plate and took Georgette in for a week. Time passed, and nothing was done to retrieve Georgette, so she made plans for her own transportation.
Robin came down then to collect HER things. The two of them fetched her belongings, then made their way north to go to their new home. Only nobody met them when they arrived. You see, Robin had not communicated anything to the host. They returned and stayed with Georgette's family. Robin stored her belongings in the basement. One day Robin told Georgette that they were being picked up in a week. Georgette made all necessary arrangements, including telling her parents they would be gone by the end of the week.
The night before pickup day, Robin told Georgette that she would have to stay behind. Transportation for the two of them had not been arranged. Whats worse, there would be nowhere for Georgette to stay upon arrival. Robin left on the train the next morning, leaving the majority of her things exactly where they sat.
Georgette was now homeless. For two months she had nowhere to call home. Then she found a place with another friend.
Fast forward another year and Robin came for a visit and to get her things back. Robin had been staying in a friend of the host's basement, unemployed, for the last year. When she found out Georgette was in need of a new roommate, she decided to "save" her. It didn't work. The house was lost and again Georgette was homeless. Robin left, this time never to return.
There is more to the story, but neither is innocent. Georgette has nightmares and struggles with the eating disorder to this day. Robin has started a crusade against Georgette, contacting all her friends and s**t talking her. Robin blames Georgette for the way the last two years have gone for her, as she rightly should.
Thoughts?
We will now return to the previously scheduled mind ********.
