Bab 9: Scene 1; A Slap In A Story
INT. CAELS' HOME - EVENING.
The wet streets lies in silence as the Evening sky reflects in a puddle. Many clouds were rapidly parting and merging, making different shapes and forms pretending they were a story, acting on the endless canvas. The sun was illuminating the horizon, its' warm colors blending smoothly with the darkness surrounding it. Some of the brightest stars were already showing, reflecting their light on the raindrops that were now falling on the ground. Cael is sitting on his bed with a book in his hand, thinking about everything he has heard of, the last few days.
CAEL
The story is a mess. I should put them into an order first. It all started with Eve and his sister as they transferred to a different school.
EVE
My mother is a busy woman, she works as a financial advisor and therefore has a lot of clients. One day she received a generous offer to get a job for more money, only it was really far away. Me and my sister of course, would not let that stop us though and urged her to accept the offer. We then moved away, and changed schools.
CAEL
From that point on, They disappeared from my life, only after a few years, would I meet Jakob, no I mean, Eve.
EVE
The first time I saw my new home, I was pretty excited. It had a balcony, it had a garden, it was much bigger than our old place. My sister too, found the place to be quite fitting for us. The environment would also positively impact her mental state, and her spilt personalities would appear less and less frequent. I hoped that maybe this time, she could make some decent friends in the new school.
LUZY
The first time I met Eve and his sis, wasn't at school. I met them when I was driving home with my bike. Usually, I'd pass by on a abandoned house and then drive around the corner, but not that time. What I saw that time was a truck with packages of different sizes parked next to the garden. My interest was immediately roused and I wondered who would live at that place. It was then that I met them. (beat) The first time I saw his sister i felt like thunder had struck me. Her beautiful long hair, whiter than the sunbeam glossing through it, her fair skin chiseled from the most beautiful marble, her red lips blossoming on her face, made me think I met an angel. I was so entangled by her beauty, I almost forgot my way home.
EVE
After a week of getting accustomed to our new environment, we finally started going to school. That was the first time I had ever met Luzy. Quite the eccentric girl, I have to say. But my sister would quickly get accustomed to her, and soon they started to become friends. Slowly other people would to join them, and she finally had people she could have fun with. Naturally, I was happy for her.
LUZY
After realizing that me and Eves' sister where in the same class, I was so happy, I could have died on the spot. It must be destiny, I thought, she must have been godsend, that girl. And I wouldn't let this chance pass by.
CAEL
And so Eve's sister and Luzy became friends.
EVE
To be honest, I wasn't quite fond of her friends. Luzy was a bit weird. She was so happy all the time, it was mildly irritating. But her other friends, were even worse. Actually, I can't even call them friends. Most of them were guys. I don't wanna brag, but I do know a thing or two about guys. And their impression didn't really imply 'friends'. Luzy had always been a beautiful girl. Her charm would attract a lot of unwanted attention, she was, in the crudest sense, a honey trap. I don't know if she ever realized that, though.
LUZY
Could you imagine? It's like the person in your dreams ends up being your lover. How thrilling. In all my years, it was when I was with her, that I had the most fun. She would always be there, and listen to what I say. Never had she rejected me. She saw me for what I am.
EVE
But how could I ever tell my sister about that? Luzys friends were her friends too after all. Never could I break that radiant smile of hers, when she told me how much fun she had. That innocence of hers, should never be sullied. In the end, I decided to keep quiet.
LUZY
I always wondered though, why she would never talk much, at first I thought that she was a shy girl, but after everything that we have done, shouldn't she have opened up to me, I thought. I had never experienced her real emotions, she was never angry, never sad and never happy, just a slight smile. When I confronted her, I realized that there was a deeper meaning. She was actually plagued by a mental disorder. She had multiple personalities. Only through shutting down her emotions, would those personalities stay hidden. So, when she was with us, for the sake of our friendship, would she cut of her feelings.
EVE
My sister was always full of emotions, but she could never show it around others, only I was capable of seeing the real her. This was another reason, for why I started disliking her relationship with Luzy. While she was around them, she had limit herself. Only when she was alone, could she be free. Is that really friendship?
LUZY
I told her, that I would always be with her, and no matter how many personalities she had, my love for her wouldn't waver. We still decided to keep that info to ourself though, to save unnecessary trouble. However, for me that was enough, because when we were alone, I got to see her real self, that no one else knew about. Slowly, she began to open up to me, and I learned more about her.
CAEL
After being friends for that long, Eve began harboring feelings for her and confessed.
LUZY
And I rejected her.
CAEL
And she died.
LUZY
And I cried.
EVE
And I did too. It was to sudden of a change. One minute, she is making friends and living a normal life, and another, she leaves the world without saying goodbye.
LUZY
Imagine my suprise after I heard she was killed, too. Inconceivable.
EVE
Her death, I couldn't understand why anyone would harm her. I never found out who the killer was, and with no one else to blame, I could only redirect my hate to somewhere else. Soon my irritation for her friends grew, and shortly after, it grew to hatred. Especially for the one closest to her, Luzy.
LUZY
The next few weeks is hazy for me. The whole time, I could only count the seconds of my life, drifting closer to the end. I was hoping to die, so that I could meet her in heaven. At the same time, an old friend approached me. He frequently hung out with me and Eve, I would say that we were pretty close. He told me how sad he felt for Eves death and how he has been stricken by grief.
EVE
The only thing that could calm me down was the mirror. Seeing my reflection was like seeing my sister. The resemblance wasn't much, however it still gave me hope. I admit, it might have been my warped sense of love, but doing that, I felt close to her. While finding peace through looking in the mirror, a daring thought emerged in my mind. I applied a red color on my lips and was astounded by the sight. How far could I push my appearance? If I transitioned into a woman, would I look like her?
LUZY
That guy was the only one I could confide in. Only he could understand what I felt at the moment and I began to put too much trust on him. It wasn't long before he told me that he had always had feelings me. Obviously I rejected him, Eve might have disappeared, but my love for her never wavered, in fact it only grew stronger.
CAEL
He didn't like the response though.
EVE
My hate for Luzy, was slowly suppressed by my love for my sister. I began adapting her appearance, her lifestyle, and also her mental condition. I would spend less time resenting Luzy, and use more to groom her, no our life. But that life also included Lucy, though. To truly transition into my sister, I had to accept the whole package. When I thought about that she became somewhat like able. I went around, searching for Luzy, only when I saw her, she was lying on the ground with someone else pressing her down. In a moment of folly, I took a brick and hit him as hard as I could. After I was sure that he wouldn't move, did I run to Luzy and held her up. I desperately called to her, but she didn't answer.
LUZY
In the end, I woke up to Eves crying face. Her ash blond hair waving through the wind covered her beautiful eyes, but I could still feel the tears hitting my face. First thing I thought was that this is the afterlife. That thought lasted only for a second though, the acute pain I felt was still there. Nevertheless I was happy. It is said that after a storm, there would be a rainbow. And only after Misfortune could one be lucky.
CAEL
Shortly after, Luzy found out that she was pregnant and aborted the child. But an accident occurred, leading to hear never being able to bear children again.
LUZY
I didn't wanna make the same mistake twice, and decided to confess to the new Eve. It may have only been my selfish decision, as I wanted to make amends with my regrets, but I was still delighted, when she agreed.
EVE
And so our story ends. I became the person I am now, a transgender who is in love with a lesbian.
LUZY
And I became a lesbian loving a transgender.
As Luzy holds Eve each in her arms, compassion is reflected thorough their faces. Their radiant smile could melt even the coldest hearts.
Cael closes his notebook and leans on his chair, exhaustion showing on his face. Silently, he stares into the void and starts thinking. Suddenly he jolts up with a strength that causes his chair to fling on the ground, creating a heavy thud.
CAEL
No, something's missing.
Eve and Luzy stare at him, as he starts approaching them.
CAEL (CONT'D)
Luzy, tell me more about how he ravaged you.
Luzy stares at Cael in disbelief and slowly puts Eve on the ground. in a swift motion, she lifts her hand, and a SLAP rings through everyone's ears.
