There's this girl I happen to work with that I like. For all purposes, let's call her "Shara." Now, I had a crush on Shara since she started working there in September or so. She was dating this guy the whole time from then until last month. Let's call him "Sophomoric Dickhead." So, I waited and waited for her to realize he's an ass and come around. May: The time arrives. While working one night, she divulges that he broke up with her because he wanted to be "a better person." He was going to teach himself how to treat her better than he had been. Fat chance. I tried that once. It didn't work. It's impossible. I told her that. She didn't care. She loves him. She'll wait until the end of the world for him to come back to her. What a joke. Anyway, it was only a week until the prom, which they would have to attend together, because they've been planning it for months. Even though I knew she was single, I suddenly had no urge to make a move. What's come over me? After speaking to my pal in NY, I decided that I don't need her, because she's beneath me.
Okay, enough back story. On to the true fact that I'm pissed. She didn't show up for work on Wednesday, leaving me as the only person over the age of 18 to sell the booze. I didn't find out until the next day why she didn't come in.
Here's a little of that conversation:
"Wanna see some pictures from the prom and the beach?"
"No thanks. I don't enjoy looking at pictures of other people's fun."
"Oh." She riffles through her pictures and pulls out a bunch.
"What're you doing?"
"You wanna know why I didn't come to work yesterday? I almost got arrested."
"Umm, excuse me?"
She holds up a picture of her and another girl. "She had sex with my boyfriend."
"And that led you to the police station?"
"No, I told her if she ever came near me again to watch out, then her aunt called the cops."
"Oh. Isn't she sixteen?"
"I don't care."
"Yeah, but the law does. You can't just do that."
"Whatever. I told my boyfriend if he ever does something like that again, I'll cut off his dick."
"Wonderful. Remind me not to get on your bad side."
"Yeah, well, I had to explain that the only reason we're back together is because I always give people a second chance."
"Right. Teriffic."
End scene. So, now, I kinda have this feeling that I wanna be the guy Shara gets revenge on "Sophomoric Dickhead" with. I feel weird 'cause that whole week when she was single, I wanted nothing to do with her. Now I have those crazy feelings towards her again. Any thoughts?
