Weekend Freewrite- The Sad Revenge

‘I like hats.’ That’s what Donald said the day before he killed Sally.’ Donald and Sally had been seeing each other for about 2 years now and their relationship was quite a rocky one. They were extremely passionate lovers at one point- those who were head over heels in love with another and would go at lengths to prove their love for each other. But God knows what would happen to them after a few days and they would fight crazily over petty issues. Maybe they both had temperament issues or maybe this is how they were- crazy people who were too expressive with their feelings.

Although their fights were pretty crazy at times and all of their friends knew how insane the two could get- threatening each other to kill the other and stalking each other like psychotic serial killers, nobody really thought Donald was capable of murdering Sally. Sadly, this was the truth.

Donald was found in Sally’s living room lying numb next to her cold body covered in a flood of blood when the police found him. he did not deny the charges and his fingerprints on the dagger confirmed the police officer’s suspicions.

Nobody really knew why he did that but slowly the story unfolded. Donald was involved with some underground gangsters and Sally suspected him of that. She had found him taking a huge sum of money from some random guy who didn’t look decent at all while she was on one of her ‘stalk-Donald’ ventures.

It was then that she became suspicious of his actions and broke up with him for the final time but kept stalking him. When she last broke up with him, Donald started drinking heavily and became addicted to booze within 2 months.

She found him in the Terminal Bar and Grill. He was sober for a change and Sally was relieved to see that. It was then when she saw him after 3 months of their breakup. She had no intention of talking to him but he came right to her and began sobbing in front of her. He was wearing a strange hat and told Sally how he liked hats with a funny smile just to make her smile. His humor often cracked her up so he tried using that to cheer her up and make her rethink her decision.

When nothing worked, he even pleaded her to get back with him but she didn’t budge in this time around. She loved him a lot but she wasn’t ready to be accepting enough of the things he was involved in. She didn’t tell him why she broke up with him when she did the last time around so Donald was still unclear on why she wasn’t getting back with him. He believed it was one of her occasional mood swings and she would feel better after a week or two. However, 3 months had passed and Sally hadn’t returned any of his calls and had even gone away to live with her sister in another sister during that time which is why Donald was extremely frustrated.

He compelled her to talk to her but she left the bar. Donald followed Sally to her home and even though she had changed her locks that didn’t stop Donald from getting in. he broke the backdoor- he was quite huge and strong and got in her kitchen. Sally saw him getting in the kitchen and threw whatever she could find in her reach at him- it was a ball.

The time he caught a fly ball (okay I know this sounds absurd here so I’m just going to continue anyway), he just threw it away and then pounced towards Sally. Whether it was the booze or his extreme rage from being dumped, Donald was extremely violent. He started beating Sally hard and when he felt his punches weren’t enough, he began using things he found around. His hands got hold of a knife and that was the end of Sally.

I know things may seem out of place in this one and the story is quite a disturbing one but that’s what I thought of and since a freewrite isn’t supposed to be a monitored piece of writing, I think I did fine lol.
