Such a radiant beauty. Her eyes, like the heat of a flame, passed over my small body and tried not to lock eyes with mine as I spoke to her.

 

            “Gentle Aura,” I said, pausing my story, “are you angry with me? I sense that you are upset…”

 

She sighed and the fire in her eyes dimmed to a mere flicker.

 

“I am fine, Jacob. Continue your story.”

 

I was worried; I knew that tone of voice. She was lying to me – blatantly lying!

 

“Tell me the truth,” I shouted, suddenly angry at the goddess before me with the silken hair.

 

“The truth,” she screamed back, “the truth?! The truth, Jacob, is that you are a bratty little boy who has no interest in me, let alone women, and cannot get over your precious Zach because you are too mentally unstable! I have no time for boys who feign interest in me and cannot grow up.”

 

I sat there in shock as she picked up her coat and purse and left me. Once alone, I remained stuck to where I was, replaying every event in my life that made me hate myself. Then I finally came to a decision. I jogged upstairs and flung open the window closest to the road outside my apartment and perched upon the sill. I stayed perched there until the next morning, when a familiar face passed by my window. So, I jumped. I know I will be remembered, at least, because right before I hit the pavement, my face will be engraved in Eros’ memories forever.
