Vengeful love .

He ruined me . I had to leave this town where I had stayed for my entire life because of his doings . No , he didn't hurt me physically but the mental pain he caused me was enough to break me into tiny pieces . Now , after almost a year I am back in town with only one thing in mind . My revenge . He will not be able to recognise me but I can never forget his face . Never . The face I had fallen in love with , the face that earns him popularity among many girls . I never thought that same face would destroy me , ruin me . My life wasn't so good from the start but he made it worse . From the day I was born my whole life was nothing but a tragedy . First my father left me then my mother and in the end I had to leave this town . But now I am back . I step foot into the town which never brought me any good . There were memories I had with this place . Bad ones . A little good ones too. The good time when my mother used to love me . Now she is not alive . Her body is cremated right here in this town and today is her death anniversary . The first thing I want to do is meet her so I can pray for her soul to rest in peace and even ask for some strength for myself to fight the battle . The melodious sound of my mother breaks my train of thoughts . Confused . You will know . " Take care , Alina . Don't stress yourself too much . " " Yeah , mom ". You might be wondering why I am calling this woman my mom . She is the one who adopted me when I had no one left to support me in this godam world . " Don't worry honey , she will be okay " . That's her husband and so my dad . He is a nice person but I am not so comfortable around him because I had some serious dad issues , they trouble me even now. He has always been a great dad only I could not be the good daughter anyone would wish for . Nevertheless I am sure that one day we will have an unbreakable bond . Mom hugs me and kisses my cheek . I wipe the tear rolling down her face , " I will miss you mom " . " And you too , dad " . Both of them are stunned to hear the word ' dad ' from me for the first time . This is like a great achievement for us as a family after the incident that happened 6 years ago with me . Mom is reluctant to leave me alone . Dad like always holds her hand , intertwining his fingers with hers and leads her to the car . They are a great couple , the way they look at each other is enough to know how much they love each other . I can see their smiling faces as they both wave back at me before the car disappears from my view . They both were stubborn at first , trying to convince me that one of them could stay with me . But I refused . I wanted to be strong and independent . After all , I am 18 now . An 18 yr old who wants nothing but revenge . Better to call it justice , atleast that will make me feel good about what I am going to do further . I very well knew how love could destroy people , make them lose their own self . None that I haven't seen . And love will be the weapon I will use against him . My plan was very simple . To make him fall in love with me . The question was how and I was still planning out things so to make him fall for me . He was the one who brought me to the edge of the cliff , it was only because of him that I was going to end my life . I am quite thankful that I didn't do it . Now , he was going to suffer . I head to the apartment which my parents have rented for me . The owner is in her 80's . She gives me a weak smile before handing me the keys . I unlock the door and start unloading my stuff. After choosing a fresh pair of jeans and tee I change into them . It's time to meet my mother . The streets here are crowded and busy with people flocking around . This town has changed . Pretty much . Almost 10 minutes later I find a flower shop at the end of the road . After buying some red roses I directly go to the cemetery . My mom used to love roses , she liked their sweet fragrance. She wondered how such beautiful roses came with their own thorns . Well , I know now . He really taught me a lot of things . Seeing the grave and her name carved on it , tears start accumulating in my eyes . I keep the flowers near her grave and let the tears fall freely . This is the last day when I cry . After this the people who troubled me will be the one to cry . " Mom , I don't know if what I am doing is right or wrong but I do know that I want to teach them a lesson . A big one. And yes mom , I missed you ". Wiping my tears off , I gather myself and try to focus on my revenge . When I am back at the apartment I find the door ajar . Before leaving I had locked it, how come it is unlocked . I enter without a care in the world as I have already faced worse situations than these . " Hey " . " Who are you " , I ask the girl . " Your new roomate , Cassie " " I didn't had an old one " " So just roomate , is it ? " " Yeah ". I didn't like the girl a bit . She seemed to be too " Life is all fun " type of a girl . Don't have the slightest idea how we are going to stay together . " Is it your first day here " , she asked me . " Are you a detective ? " " No " " So why do you wanna know " " We could hangout together tonight and you haven't told me your name yet " " Hangout ? I am not into these things " . " You are weird " , did she just read my mind . I was thinking the same about her . " Mia , that's my name ". She smiles at me , more of a grin. I give her a fake smile and walk into my room . After laying on the bed I let my thoughts wander. Tomorrow will be my first day at the same school I had left one year ago . I will be there with a new identity , a new name and a totally new face . A beautiful face , I might add . Anybody would easily fall in love with me . I know people say it's all about hearts but let me tell you the ugly truth it's all about your face . It's going to be tough on you , Max . Be ready .
