Mistaken betrayal
Sora's POV
Do you know what it feels like when your most beloved possession taken from you? You would probably feel angry right? That you would want to kill whoever took it. Then how would you feel if you found out in the end that your best friend was the one who took it, even though she knew that you loved that thing so much?
That's how I feel right now. Murderous. You're probably wondering what's making me so angry. Well, the answer would be my boyfriend. Taichi.
You see. Recently, he's been cold towards me, very cold. Whenever I try to talk to him he runs away. Besides that, he's been seeing my best friend, Mimi more and more. I investigate further, and I find out that he's been dating my best friend behind my back.
I can't stand it anymore. So when I hear them arranging to meet in the park, I decide to crash their party, and give them something they wouldn't forget.
I saw them standing there. Just in front of the entrance to the park.. They were laughing away, having a good time. I was livid. My hand tightened over the knife I had concealed behind my back.
I stormed over to them, whipping out the knife. They saw me coming towards them and surprise flashed across their faces. I raised the knife. And thrust it down.
The knife flashed crimson as I plunged it into Tai's chest.
Mimi gasped as she saw Tai collapse. She caught him and called his name frantically.
"Tai, Tai! Sora what are you doing?"
"You still have the cheek to ask!" I exclaimed, "You steal my boyfriend from me and you still act innocent!"
"Sora, since when did I steal Tai from you? I haven't even gone out on a date with him!"
"Then why have you been seeing him so often? Why else would he neglect me so?"
Mimi didn't answer that question, instead a voice that was filled with pain and agony. It was Tai. That idiot was still alive.
"It's because we've been planning a surprise for you." He said, "That's why I've been seeing her so much."
"Liar!" I yelled, "Do not insult my intelligence by trying to fool me with such a lie! If that was the case, then why would you neglect me and keep avoiding me?"
"That's because I didn't want you to find out…"
"Lies! Show me evidence! Or else I can't believe you!"
"I have evidence…"he said as he pulled a bloodied velvet box. He opened it to reveal a ring. I took it and examined it. It was an engagement ring with words engraved onto it. I looked closer and saw what was carved onto it. Sora, will you marry me…
I burst into tears knowing I had made a fatal mistake. That I had done a mistaken betrayal. The knife, stained red with Tai's blood fell to the floor with a clatter. I fell to my knees and sobbed over Tai's body.
"I'm so sorry Tai…" I sobbed.
Even though he was in pain, he tried his best to smile and comforted me "It's ok Sora, I don't hold it against you."
"I don't either…" agreed Mimi.
"Sora…look at me." Said Tai.
I looked at him with a fountain of tears "Sora, will you marry me?" he asked.
A fresh well of tears burst out as I heard this. He still loved me even now though I've caused him so much harm.
I loved him so much, but I couldn't let him be endangered by me anymore, he deserved better. I picked up the knife, stood up and said to him, "I would Tai but you deserve better, I've hurt you too much, I can't forgive myself for that, I'm sorry…"
After saying that I ran into the park, I heard him cry out to me but I chose to ignore him. I ran deep into a hidden part of the park. I knew I only had moments before Mimi or Tai caught up with me. I took the knife and held it to my chest. I thrust it in and felt the cold metal inside my body. I collapsed and my vision went blurry. I saw Tai limp over and and sob over my bleeding body. He grasped my hand and asked, "Why?" I just gave him a weak smile and with my last breath said to him, "I love you Tai…"
