《Contradiction》Yellow Sunshine

AMANDA P.O.V
Heading back to Lex's car, I realize that there was some familiar about today. You know that deja vu feeling but you one hundred percent sure it never happened? I'd had this feeling since I saw her open the door. Or maybe I'm making myself have the feeling since I recently thought back to my abortion. Yeah, that's the reason...nothing else. In the car ride down towards Alki Beach, I search the clouds while Lizzie sings along with You're Welcome from Moana. I let the window down and close my eyes. Pondering over why I felt so mad at myself all of a sudden. Why did I tell him about my parents and about Jim? Why was I that stupid?
Because girls like to comfort, to nurture...my mind answers.
I lost track of the time I had my eyes closed, the minuets slipped away as if I went to sleep. I'm guessing I blocked out the music as well. "We're here." I hear Lex say, his window let's down, then I hear a beep. he uses the passcode card.
When my eyes open, my mouth drops at huge, cabin like beach house up ahead. Decorated with many windows, tall and reflecting the sun. Trees lined behind it, logs and pebbles before it. Oh my god.
Inside, I gawk at walls of oak white paneling and dark wood floors. Spacious, jumbo rooms and furniture. Lizzie takes my hand in hers. Again, familiarity. Or is my mind playing with me...making me feel like I know this place??
"I'll throw in a pizza." Lex locks the door.
LEX P.O.V
To the kitchen I go, sliding a pizza into a squeaky clean oven and setting it at 450 degrees. Then I step outside. The last time I was here was with my mom before she....did what she did. I didn't wan5 to come back, but then I couldn't have my little princess in a crummy one room for rent. She need a better environment than that. In the back ground, trees line in a row, and a huge lake sits in the center of grass as green as ever. I take out my phone and dail a number, the number to Struve Treat.

"Strive Treat, how can I help you today?"A guy answered. Ha...it's took late to change to make receptionists.
"I'd like to speak with Mr. Pierce."
"And who is calling?"
I think fast. "His lawyer, Mr. Robertson." This was his actual lawyer, the guy that stripped me of having any rights to money or to the company."
"One moment."
Fast jazz music plays, for a bit before the link taps. "Hello, Robert, how are ya?"
"I have Lizzie, if you try to come for her I'll leak the documents of the twenty two girls you sexual harassed, if you try to scare any of them, just think about how guilty that'll make you look in court."
"YOU MOTHERFUCKER, YOU FUCKING DISGRACE. I HAVE THE BEST LAWYERS AND MEN WHO WILL END YOU FOR GOOD, TRY DOING ANYTHING AND I WILL SEND OUT THAT HIT I PROMISED YOU. DON'T FUCKING THREATEN ME, BOY!!!!"
I hang up, inhaling long and deep.
AMANDA P.O.V
Like a kid on Christmas, I explore rooms with Lizzie. "And that the rock climbing room, but I can't go there Lexie says no."
"He's right."
"Oh, and this a fancy bathroom."
I peak into a spa, white and pink patchy walls, a jacuzzi tub, two saunas on separate sides, back messengers, glass cabinets stacked with hygienic items. Pink robes and tiles. "Wow."
"And this is the movie theater!"
We weren't even through one percent of the house yet, how many rooms are here?? "What Movie should we look at?" I give her a funny, devious grin. "Something scary?"
"Monster House! She jumps up and down.
Inside the red and black theater, I take a seat and watch as Lizzie selected a movie from a playlist and hops beside me, lifting up the arm rest to cuddle me. She's so sweet and cute and so drawn to me. The smell of her skin is sweet, strawberry from the ice cream she had. As the movie plays, I wonder where Lex is. Where did he go? I'm half tempted to go see but then I like the position I'm in right now. About thirty minutes into a movie that was my childhood, every Halloween I watched it, I noticed Lizzie fell asleep. Aww, that's from all the fun she had.

Footsteps from behind me, makes me turn my head. Lex with two plates and pizza and chips. "Only two plates."
"I knew she'd drop like a fly." He handed me a plate and sat two seats away from me. Odd...with how intimate we were before. Maybe he thought it was stupid too. Maybe he regretted it too. I snack on the pizza, eating a lot more lady like n front of him. He wasn't Jim, I could eat like a pig in front of Jim. Just then, my phone vibrated. I could sense urgency in the energy of Lex's body from the corner of my eye, alertness, his shoulders tensing. What the? I wiggled my phone from my pocket. Jim.

Terminal
My heart was shattered that day. It was on that day that I realized that life had an end, and that mine was coming. It was on that day that I realized that I was going to die. Leukemia, they told me. It's almost over. I didn't know what to do after that. I thought that maybe it would be best to die right then, get it over with. I thought that I could push myself away from all my friends, all my family, stop them from missing me after I was gone. I thought that I could handle it on my own, that perhaps the world was better off without me. I was wrong. So please help me, I'm dying. Save me, I'm falling. They tell me I won't survive. Please catch me, because if you don't, I'll shatter. I can't grab on anymore, I can't keep fighting. It's going to swallow me up. My name is Alyssa Gray, and by the time you finish reading this, I'll be dead. ________________________________ A few warnings and things to note: -I've put up the tramatising content tag due to a lot of mentions on death, dying, illness, and a mother who tends to be rather cruel. I know that I take a perspective that many will strongly disagree with, and I'm okay with that. Just be warned that this isn't lighthearted stuff. This is real, and death is real, and this part streaches beyond the fiction into reality. -I'm going to say a minor spoiler, but I don't want it to take you unaware because it is something to be aware of. At one point, my MC attempts suicide and fails. It's a very violent scene and I will put up the gore tag after writing this, and it's also just really depressing. If this will be triggering, you need to be aware of this before you read it. -This is a christian book. It may go against some of your beliefs. I hope that you can read and comment anyway even if some of it does not sit well with you. Credits for the cover go to the user 'Media in Sanity'. Your help and assitance has meant so much to me, God bless you in your writing and your endevours. A proud member of WriTE. I've promised to finish this fiction and update it at least once a month. My schedule is very irregular, and I'm working on that, but I'm going to do everything I can to make sure that this book stays out there. I'm not ending it until it's done.
