Feelings of Nothing
Ego rushs, Ego losses, and Ego envy
Jack left the Midwifes house, knowing that he was a coward for what he tried last night. But he didn't care, because it was all coming down to him making yet another stupid idea. Cliff was waiting for Jack at the cemetery, and quickly told him what he did when he walked by. Jack nodded, and Cliff rushed off quickly to get fish for his dinner that night.
As Jack came into the crossroads between the mountain, vineyard, and the two farms, he saw Harris. Harris looked mad, Jack didn't really care. He would kill him if he tempted him, and he was quite sure he knew he could do it. "You had no right to see her Jack. You b--" Harris started, but was stopped by Jack. "Shut your mouth, you foolish man. Mind your buisiness, and keep your nose out of others." Jack said rudely, as he walked by him.
"Now you listen here! I am the type of person for Maria! And you know it! You're just mad because you made a stupid decision!" Harris yelled at Jack, not thinking before he spoke. "And what does stupid decision mean?" Jack asked, ready to attack him at any moment. "You know what I mean, Maria told me, and I also read a letter Karen sent to Ann this morning." Harris said, with a stuck up smile. Jack clenched his fist, "Mind your business, and I'll leave you alone. So get stay away from Maria." Jack shouted, as he turned and walked away.
Jack was interrupted while walking away, from the idiotic post officers' bag of letters. Jack turned around, "You stupid bastard." Jack said, as he walked up to the now, brave Harris. "You actually think you could hurt me?" Jack said, acting tough. Harris nodded, acting brave. "Then lets fight, unless your a coward." Jack said, as Harris glared at him angrily.
Harris stuck his fists up, like the type of person that has fought before. Jack laughed, then quickly gave Harris a left hook, throwing him back. "You were warned Harris." Jack said, as he quickly threw another fist at him, hitting him in the lip. Harris flew backwards, "Bastard.." Harris muttered, as he hit the hard ground.
Jack turned around and started to walk away, when Harris idiotically got up, ran and tackled him. Harris unleashed a flurry of punches on Jack. Jack kicked him off, and spit out some blood, Jack didn't know it, or at least he wouldn't admit it, Harris hurt him a little. Jack stood up, and pulled Harris up too, then quickly, giving him several punches to the face, knocking him unconscious.
Jack dragged the now unconscious Harris to the beach, leaving a small trail of his blood in the sand, as he dragged him onto the dock, and pushed him off. "Goodbye you stupid bastard.." Jack muttered, as Harris sunk. As Harris sunk out of site, Jack slowly started to cry, then looked at his hands.
"What did I do.. What did I just do.. I killed him.. I killed..." Jack started rambling off, as he put his hands to his eyes and cried. "I'm sorry.." Jack said to the water, as a letter from Harris's pocket floated up. Jack quickly grabbed it, and opened it.
As he read, he soon learned that Maria didn't have feelings for Harris, but she still had feelings for Jack. As Jack came to the bottom of the letter, it had Maria's name signed, and jack realised that he got in a fight over nothing with Harris, and let it go to far, for nothing. Jack dropped the letter into the water, and watched as the waves bashed it around, and slowly took it out to sea.
Jack got up, washed the wiped the blood from his hands, and walked away. Jack thought as he kept walking to his farm. Jack saw Maria, sitting besides the mailbox, semi-crying. Jack walked past her, his hands still covered in the blood of the innocent man he killed. "Jack.. Cliff...He.. Explained everything.." She said, slowly, as Jack walked to his pond, and cleaned his hands.
The water slowly absorbed the blood of Harris, and turned back to its normal blue, as Maria's reflection came over it. "And I want you to know, that I accept your apology..." She finished, smiling, as Jack could see from the pond. Jack shouted inside his head, "The one for me cheating on her!? The one for me killing Harris!? The one for me not just letting it go!? What one!?" Jack shouted louder in his head.
"I'm sorry for everything.. Maria.. Please accept all of my apologies.." Jack whispered into her ear, as he hugged her.. Starting to cry slowly. "I will.." Maria said, as she buried her head into his chest.
