C H A P T E R 1
we start by introducing a woman
shes battered and bruised
but her eyes are bright
her face still damp with tears
as she runs into an apartment
and a man gives her a room
because he pities the young girl
C H A P T E R 2
the girl cleans up in a half bath
she smiles at her reflection sinisterly
and the reader begins to see that shes not what she seems
she offers to make him food
he smiles and excepts
noticing that after she cleaned up was quite beautiful
she cooked at the stove
and as she put a soup in a bowl
she poured a large amounts of arson
C H A P T E R 3
the man eats and is jovial
she also smiles watching him
watching as he laps up the drops of her soup
we begin to see a memory of hers
a man perhaps her father an empty bottle in his hand
his face is contorted with uncontrolled anger
he hits her until shes unconscious
he then proceeds to **** her
as she falls in and out of consciousness
C H A P T E R 4
we see the man falling very sick
he stumbles to his room sweat beads on his face
he excuses himself to bed and smiles at her
she smiles back but her face isnt a normal smile
he lies in his bed sweating crying
his heart begins to slow as she walks into the room
she watches until his last breath
as he begged her to call for help
C H A P T E R 5
she cleans the entire house
and takes his car to the river
he is sitting in the back eyes open wide
and still glistening with drops of old sweat
she drives up the dock
putting all the windows down
she hits the gas and lodges it down with a brick
like a seal on this mans fate
as she swims out of the window
C H A P T E R 6
seven bodies at the bottom of the river
each with a brick on the petal
each man killed with arson
each with a small heart carved on there wrist
she was a killer and the scene ends
with her ending yet another mans life
on the last page of the story
our novel asks you a question
was her killing justified
could she say she was a product of her surroundings
was the blame on her father
who showed her that men were untrustworthy
or perhaps her mother who was never there
not even to comfort her as she cried to sleep
or do you believe that she was just a
