I Love You (A Short Semi-Horror Story)

There were once lived a girl named I love you. She was once cherished and adored like a Chinese piece of art by her parents, brothers, girl friends, mates, neighbors and strangers she passed by the streets. She had an easy smile that pulled people into her. They were longing and seeking and sipping comfort in her vibrance. 

                                                                        

The next day, this was when the madness started: the people seeking comfort in her woke up feeling happy with a persistent beating in their hearts that says, "I want to see more of her. I want her to be part of my body; to own and taste every part of her is a longing I need to have. I want her smile on my face..." on and on it beat with absurd chaos. At random, a crowd started piling up outside her house. Banging the whole goddamn house in a riot and screaming "I love you, I love you! I love you. I love you...." repeatedly.

                                               

The whole family presented i love you to the crowd with the innocent and not-so vibrant look on her face. And a bit taller. And not a bit too young; with long limbs. Everyone got dismayed and started pulling back, crying. They can't accept that she had grown up.

From then on, people began to treat her with indifference. She was becoming an awkward human being to the society. She was lost, to god knows where. At school, she had few friends. And these few friends get to decide when to talk to her. Which left her distraught.

Life had meaning to her again the day she met the man she fell in love with. And that was also the day she realized what her name meant to her and to everyone around her; why everybody seemed to like her in the beginning and hate her in the end.

Heartbroken was his name. A cool guy with mysterious appeal. She followed him around and outside school until they've become friends, buddies.

The day when heartbroken said to her, "sorry, i love you..." everything shattered and what is left was a name without a soul; short semi-horror story with I Love You as its title.
