Sarah: Sublime

His eyes.

I frown.

He smiles.

It was the way he looked at me, and i knew he was the only one for me. That's how i

knew we'd never be together.

Sarah: I Didn't want him to know I cared. The bed we had kept for each other was now occupied by my boyfriend and another woman. I walked past in an effort to appear as if I didn't care. I strolled past them, grabbed my keys, opened the fridge and took a beer. told him to fuck off and then left with intent to never come back.

Sarah: Im Sarah, the girl Jon lost. Ours is a story, never meant to become anything more than a tragic fairy tale.

Jon: Her hair.

Her skin.

Caress.

Love.

Hate.

Whats the word.

I loved her. Sarah. I loved her so much, I cheated on her to ease the pain. Thats why i could never be with her.

Jon. I watched Sarah as she took her keys and left. I smiled at the woman in my bed and called her a whore as I touched her lip. I never wanted to be with anyone other than Sarah. I never wanted to hurt her. And in the end, I felt like its the things I never want that become my only reality.

Sarah: A day has passed and I knew there was nothing left in my relationship with Jon. I knew it was time to tell him that they'd never see each other again.

Sarah: * Sarah is crying.* Im only going to tell you this once, Jon.

Jon: Im listening

Sarah: Dont follow me. Dont call me. Dont text me. Dont chase after me. I never want to see you again.

Jon: How are you going to stop me from calling you.

Sarah: I'll change my number.

Jon: i always hated that about you.

Sarah: "What?"

Jon: You bitchy sense of humor.

Sarah: Youre the bitch Jon

Jon: Im not trying to argue with you.

Sarah: You are arguing with me. I dont take you the least bit seriously.

Jon: I like to think i take this every bit as seriously as i should. Youre the one not taking me seroiusly.

Sarah: you dont know me.

Jon: There's such a thing as being too much of a good thing Sarah, and that's what you are to me, too much of a good thing.

Sarah: There's such a thing as God, Jon and someday he's going to put you in your place and give you what you deserve.

Jon: There's no such thing as God, and somedays a long ways away from here. im not worried about it."

Sarah: Dont you ever wonder why god put us here.

Jon: No i dont actually.

Sarah: Well i do and i think that when the time comes he'll put us right back."

John: *laughs* Is that some kind of joke.

Sarah: I dont joke about things like this.

John: Youre a bitch and Im glad youre leaving. Good riddence. Once less headache in my life isnt going to kill me.

Sarah: Goodbye John.

Sarah: I walked away. I didnt want to cry in front of him. His words were like liquid and they bled right through me. I sobbed when he was gone from sight.

Love.

Why did i bother.

What did i know. It was only through great inconvenience that I'd ever learn to fight off the feeling of insecruity i felt in my heart every time he was near me.

My love for him was deep, as deep as the ocean and as far reaching as the sky itself. But he didn't want me. When life gave him choices, he chose someone else. I couldnt live like that. And so i left him In an effort to save myself from heartbreak. I left him, wondering what the point of life was going to look like if he wasn't going to be there too.

GOD: Candles

Dim reality.

Dont hesitate.

Opposite.

In the land of opposite

We'll never be the same.

So says me. I am God.

So says god.

I sign the document in a hurry.

The candles flicker in front of me . I am at my desk.

In life, we find many thing wrong with ourselves. Maybe its our appearance or our wasted talents or teh way we do things that annoy us.

Creak

Creak

A mouse?

I hesitate before continuing.

Sometimes we even fall into a pattern of dreaming, of lowered awareness. And half hazard reality . We dream we walked a million miles toward some unattainable goal. just to realize we're never going to get there.

Shadows dance on the walls.

I long.

I love.

I dream.

And done.

So says God.

I sign another document and continue thinking.

There are two people I'd like to get to know a little better. The tale of two people who will never get along or feel love truly in the meanwhile. They will crave one another's affection. And the more tehy try to pull close, the further it'll tear them apart.

I AM GOD.

Please

Thank you.

And there's no such thing as suffering for what about to do here. With tehe occassional psychological exception of course.

So says god. Thank you.

To do the opposite.

To continue on with life with out a speck of hope for the future. You'll ever be happy if you continue to live this life in the way you are.

Not like this.

Not this way.

If you continue to live a life of doing the opposite of wht you feel, I will take you and put you back. You will dissappear from the place you came from. I will annihilate you.

And done.

So says God.

Jon: I

` You

Us.

Please dont leave.

I only ever wanted to be near you.

Sarah: I awoke with a start. I stood up. The lights, they flicker on and off. I dont know why. Something strange is going on here.

When i think of Jon, I think of the ache in my heart that follows me wherever i go whenever he's around.

I need you.

I want.

Please dont let me leave you.

There's nock and my door.

I answer it and jon is there outside waiting for me.

Sarah: What do you want? I told you not to look for me.

Jon: I thought we could go for a walk.

Sarah: Fine. I'll get my coat.

Goes and gets coat.

Jon: I had adream last night.

Sarah: Did you?

Jon." Yes. it was about you.

Sarah: Tell me another one .

Jon: No really, i had a dream about you and me. We get married in it.

Sarah: That sounds kind of farfetched to me.

Jon: It's not.

Sarah: *Sighs.* Why are you here? What's the point of showing up now. You already cheated on me. I dont forgive you.

Jon: One last chance. I promise. I'll never do it again.

Sarah: I dont believe you.

Jon: No really, cross my heart and hope to die. I wont cheat.

Sarah: I dont know. I dont want to be disappointed again.

Jon: Please, you gotta give me another chance. I love you, Sarah. I love you so much.

Sarah: You dont love anyone..

Jon: Except you. I love you. I would never do anything to hurt you. I'd rather die than hurt you again. I'd rather die a million deaths than break your heart again. I promise i will never cheat on you again.

Sarah: Really?

Jon: Yes, really.

Sarah: *Thinking*

I think about it for a long time. John. I love you but i dont want to cry again. Not because of you. Youre the best and worst thing that ever happened to me. I want to believe you would never hurt me again. I want to trust you.

"Why now? why do you come back now?

Jon: Becuase i care. I care about you and i dont want to see you upset. Let me back into your life. You wont regret it. I promise you.

Sarah: I can trust you, cant I?

Jon: yes. You can trust me. I love you forever Sarah.

He takes her hand.

Jon: come home baby. Its lonely there without you.

Sarah: Yes. I'll come home. I love you too Jon. Nothing will tear us apart again. I wont let anything break us up.

Sarah: Everything went well for about a week.

Jon: It was for about a week that everything went well.

Sarah: Jon was everything i ever wanted and more. He was the perfect boyfriend.

Jon: Sara was a doll. She was only priority. She was perfect.

Sarah: I loved him.

Jon: I loved her.

Sarah: Then he cheated again.

Jon: Thats when i decided to cheat again.

Sarah: My world.

Its shattering.

You said you wouldnt hurt me.

You lied.

This time, its you who'll be hurt.

Sarah: I walked into the living room. My life. It was over. Same girl. Same scenerio. Same old Jon. I Felt tears well up in my eyes.

Jon: S... Sarah. Shit. * he jumps to his feet* I didn't know you were going to be home so early.

Sarah: Liar.

Jon: Im not. This. Who's this? Im sorry. Please dont get upset.

Sarah runs to the kitchen. She grabs a knife. She races after the girl, they run up the stairs. Jon also runs and grabs a knife. The girls struggle upsaqtairs. Sarah kills the girl.

Sarah: This time, I'll make Jon cry.

her blood.

It felt like I was the one that was dying.

I saw myself lying in a heap on the floor. But it wasn't me. It was the other woman that had died.

John: You bitch. YOu killed her. I knew you would. I knew you'd do something like this. You're fucking crazy. You crazy bitch.

Sarah: Die john! * Shrieking*

They struggle. They fight. They stab at each other. Sarah trips. She falls down the stairs, dragging Jon down with her.

Sarah: I thought to myself as I Fell down the stairs with Jon.

I loved him so much.

Too much.

I murdered his other woman.

Love.

Hate.

I frown.

AT least i could die a beaitufl death with the one I loved.

It was the way he looked at me. And i knew he was the only one for me. That's how I knew we'd never be together.

I loved him till my heart was sore.

Goodbye Jon.

They lay there for awhile. She reaches out and takes his hand.

Jon: I lay over Sarah, she took my hand and I let her. I felt sad. I had loved her so much that my heart and my mind couldn't hold it all.

Depth.

Hearts.

Hands entwined.

I close my eyes and here I die.

Goodbye Sarah.

GOD: *God appeared in frotn of them.*

So ended their tale.

They chose to die rather than be together.

They passed their souls away into a web of oppositge and dim reality. Goodnight mouse. Goodnight candles. Good night Jon and Sarah.

So says God.

And Done.

The end.
