Apathetic Way 2 Be

By Nina Rippner

"Yeah I'm not angry…"

George King looked down at his latest victim. She had been his girlfriend for three years before he found out about her husband, after that, all he could think of was causing her demise. His clear blue eyes shined as he recalled the way his knife had cut through her flesh, he threw his head back as he inhaled the scent of her blood that filled the air. George smiled looked back down at the stained carpet; he had been meaning to replace it with hard wood floors for a while now, this just gave him new motivation. As his eyes lifted from the woman's body on the floor to roam the room; a deep chuckle rose from his throat and echoed through the cabin.

He was going to have someone new, she was going to be gorgeous and fun loving and she would behave. Especially after he showed her, the video tape of what he did to the whore lying dead in front of him.

The sound of a ballpoint pen being pushed repeatedly filled the air as Lisa Reisert held the phone to her ear; she was sitting in the airport. Her face, and voice, said something between professionally composed and screw you.

"Yep. Yes that's all set to go," she said as she dotted down notes in her day planner that was falling apart as she did so.

"And Ed Browning, all his-,"

"His massages, his tee times, his back waxing with Suzie, they have all be confirmed, reconfirmed and double checked a thousand times over." She said cutting of her boss Charlie,

"Don't give me attitude, Lisa, I'm in no mood!" He snapped.

"But I'm not giving you any-,"

"There are plenty of people waiting in the wings, you get me, Reisert?" Lisa took a deep breath.

"I get you," she took another deep breath, if it needs more smoothing over, tell Mr. Browning that the hotel will comp him for tonight and tomorrow."

Lisa heard one of the airport personnel yelling something about Jacksonville; she paid no attention to it because she was not flying out there. She slides her duffle bag with her foot and it accidentally bumps into the leg of the woman in front of her.

"Whoops, sorry," she blushed slightly.

"That's okay, sweetheart, can you believe this?"

"No, I can't, but I've just now realized that there is nothing we can do about it," both of them smiled.

"Well, I'm proud, I'm twice your age and I still haven't figured that out," she laughed.

"Once again, anyone who was scheduled on the flight to Jacksonville, if you want to get out of Dallas tonight, please come to front of the line at this time." The two women looked up at the airport worker.

"This is absurd, you're letting them go but we've been standing here for over an hour, how does that work?" Lisa turned to the man behind her who is talking; his reddish brown hair fell into his crystal blue eyes as he spoke.

"Sir, you're not going to miss your flight, but if we don't rebook them, they will."

"So it doesn't matter that you've cancelled my first flight and rerouted me twice?" the mans eyes seemed to turn to ice as he grew more angry.

"Please, sir, she's doing the best she can do." Lisa said turning to him,

"I don't think I was talking to you, sweet heart,"

"You'd think he'd be happy just to be allowed in this place," she turned away from him. She turned away, in fact, just a second to late to see the fire flash through his eyes.

"Next in line," the woman in front of her walked forward, but she forgot to grab her umbrella.

"Oh, you forgot this," Lisa quickly picked it up and ran to the women.

I'm not sure if I want to leave this as is, if I do make it a multi chapter, it will take a while for me to update. But I'll lots of reviews if you want me to continue.
