The following story that your about to read is a work of FICTION. Crafted from my mind, some of his ideas did come from sources such as tv shows, movies and news articles. However I wanted to state that it is strictly fictional and nothing more.
As I left that woman’s house I got thinking that I thought I may have found someone to love me for my disfiguring looks, but I guess that wasn’t the case. How could someone treat another person like that, just because I may not have a six pack or have super model looks but for some reason she looked at me as if I was something from a horror movie, like an escaped lunatic.
But I’m just a nice guy, trying to find love and acceptance. But I guess there is no room in this world for nice guys.
As our character continued to roam down the street thinking to himself about everything that just happened and how he got looked at, he seen that look in other people too.
“Perhaps I can’t be loved” he mumbled to himself...
It begins to rain as he sits on a park bench and continues to mumble to himself “Love is a complex emotion, but yet nobody feels it for me, they seem to look at me like I’m the ugliest thing they’ve ever seen”
Just then he heard a lady scream for help, he decided to venture forth to see what was going on.
As he ventured near a group of trees he seen a man with a lady, the man appears to have ripped her blouse open.
“I feel like I should do something as the lady called for help but yet no one seems to be around” said our character, so he yelled “Hey!” the man got startled as our character tackled him to the ground the man proceeded to fight so our character fought back landing a few good haymakers in the process. But as the fight ensued our character grabbed the man by the head and started to bash it against the ground over and over.. The next thing our character knew was a pool of blood has started to form around that man’s head.
As our character got up, he ventured over towards the lady who was still trying to compose herself while she was curled up on the ground he stuck out his hand to her and said “May I help you up miss ?”
The lady extended her hand and he helped her up.
He proceeded to talk to her “Are you OK ?” She replied with “I thought he was going to....” then she paused... Our character asked “Is everything OK ?”
The lady kept starring at him she finally said “Your hideous, get away from me you freak!”
Our character replied “I just saved you from getting raped or worse”
She once again started to scream for help.
Our character ran off, as he did he began saying to himself “What was she thinking she was going to get saved by the perfect guy and fall in love with him like a fucking movie ?”
The rain started to pour
Our character felt it would be quicker to head down an alleyway So he took the first alley he came across... It was dark, but it had a little bit of light in it, enough to walk through it as he was walking through he heard a muffled scream followed by a guy saying “yeah, you like it like that don’t you”
As he got closer he noticed the man who said it who looked at him and said “you want some of this whore too ?” That’s when he noticed the lady that he was speaking of was being raped.
He shoved the man to the ground as the lady fell landing on all fours trying to catch her breath and gather her thoughts.
Our character ran over and kicked the man in the head then started to punch him as he threw the man towards the wall the man slipped hitting his head off the corner of a dumpster, which appeared to knock him out only for our character to realize that he just killed another man.
He wasn’t thinking much about it, the main thing was he saved the girl, kinda feel like Superman he saved the damsel in distress just like a superhero.
So he walked around to where he last seen the lady and helped her up, she thanked him. Even gave him a hug, he gathered her things as her purse fell and various articles came out of it.
As he begins to walk her out of the alley so he would know she’s safe they come up to a light
She stops him and says “Let me have a look at the man who saved me”
As she does she them screams for help as our character says to himself “geez is this a common thing with people today ?”
So he grabs her by the shoulders and says “Lady, I just saved you... Nothing else is going on around here”
She then proceeds to scream louder.
So he pushes her away in frustration and confusion
Her heal breaks she falls down knocking herself out.
Our character leaves the alley in a hurry.
While walking he keeps asking himself “Am I that monster that they see ?”
Our character walks up to a hospital.
