After reading my past entries, you are probaly thinking this story is about Aaron and I and our happy wonderful life together. Well, you're wrong. I have no idea where Aaron is now, what he's doing, what he has accomplished. Because I honestly don't care. In life we go about looking for love. Hoping and praying for that "one" to come. And every partner that you are with it seems as if that person is the one that you are supposed to be with; until someone better comes along. Sometimes, things in our life seem so important at the time. Like for instance-having the first boyfriend in your class, or getting a homerun playing kickball in P.E. No worries, I felt the same way, most of us do at a young age. And sometimes your heart does get broken on purpose-sounds harsh I know- but it's the truth. Without all the heartache, the pain, and the suffering, how could we distinguish happiness?
Back to my story-
After being rejected, I was wallowing in self pity, like most preteen girls do. I felt as though no one would ever like me and my life was over. In reality, my life was just beginning. I had- and still have- so much of my life to look forward to. And I was just in the primacy of it. I didn't understand that back then. But I do now.
My family and I live near a local park. So to cheer up my mood, (or to cry by myself) not sure which yet, I decided to go to this park. It really is a beautiful park. There are acres of trees, playsets, a pond, it was the hangout. So, I'm there, same day, a few hours after being let down, shedding a poor little tear (boo hoo) on the swingset. Then I looked over my shoulder and I see two guys from my school-Kyle and Jones. "Oh great!" I thought, "Now they're gonna see me crying and they'll go and tell Aaron, I just don't feel like seeing anyone." But, even though my mind was begging them to leave the park and go home, it didn't stop them from coming over to see me."
"Hey Caty!" Kyle said. Kyle and I were good friends in grade school. I would tell him just about everything. He was always nice, understanding, and a very good listener. So they come over, me saying "Hi!" while wiping my tears. Thankfully they never did see those tears, at least I hope not.
We had our usual talk about school, parents, etc. And Kyle brought up his best friend Jake. "Did Jake talk to you by chance?" "No. " I replied. "Why?" Kyle, a smile crackling up on his face told me that Jake better tell me and it wasn't any of his buisness. 'This must me serious." I thought. Kyle told me practically everything. I WANT to know. I NEED to know. So I finally got it out of him, and apparently Jake, thought little old Caty was hot. HOTT!!!! And wanted to go out with me. The first thing that popped into my head was not, 'That's so nice of him'. No, I was much more evil to think of that. I wanted to make Aaron jealous. I wanted him to hurt just like I did.
Jake was a fine looking boy, and played on the same baseball team as Aaron. This was a prime opportunity for me to take revenge. Jake had the "bad boy" persona and was creepy at times, but I could stand that to get to Aaron. I should have known Jake liked me. He tried to buy me pretzels at lunch, held open practically every door for me, and tried to start up pointless conversations with me even though he knew I wasn't interested. So, this wasn't a huge suprise. But my evil mind had never thought about making Aaron jealous. I would get my man.. even if my life depended on it.
