| You know, the last time we saw Hannah-- I'm sorry, just one last thing. I can't get her out of my head. Last time we saw Hannah, she called me "miss" and you "sir". Didn't that upset you? You really don't get it do you? Hannah is my dearest friend. She will always come first. We may not be talking right now, and I hope to God that that changes, so, you saying that she's not in our lives anymore doesn't work for me. You know people hate me? I'm a hateable kind of person. I don't know why. I can't help it. Maybe it's because I have a big ass and good hair, but I know, I know that I have principles. And one thing that I don't do is steal people's boyfriends. But you ruined that. Don't you see that? I'll never forgive you. I will never forgive you for that. We could die in the same bed and I will never forgive you. And if you don't believe a fucking thing that comes out of my mouth is on you because the only time I ever lied is when said I cared if you lived or died. I'm so fucking out of here. Hannah may be a lazy, entitled, manipulative, myopic narcissist who knows a lot less than she thinks she does, and you hated me for so fucking long because she fucking hated me. Welcome to having a friend, something you would know nothing about! You fucking dumb fuck. You're kidding me. You didn't scare me, it was just so over the top unnecessary. I guess I'm going to make a great therapist because I'm fucking insane, and you're going to make a great actor because you're a narcissist sociopath. Hannah told me everything about you. Everything! I used to think she was being dramatic, but now I know that it was all true. You're actually even worse! Assfuck. |
