AT THE BOTTOM OF A DEAD LAND

"Nobody deserves to hurt anyone," said Marilyn and then added:


"We should all love each other and agree and respect each other without distinction or discrimination of any kind. Why do you behave like this? What did life or people do to reduce you this way? "


The evil Snake could only be enraged by the words of Marilyn.


If before she wanted only to hurt her, now she wanted to see her on the ground with all the teeth scattered around because she has truly angered her very badly.


"Oh, my mistress was right, you deserve to suffer well. Since you asked now, I'll tell you why I behave like that and, believe me, it won't be a good story. "


Before Marilyn could escape, the evil Snake managed to stop her and forced her to listen to his story filled with years of repressed evil accumulated by this creature.


"From an early age, I was forced to be alone and to learn that the world is not at all good or generous to you, just because you had the misfortune of not being considered pretty enough or because you don't have the same luck as others."


I was always left alone and abused by others who laughed at the fact that I was the ugliest and most basic, every day I had to look in the mirror and agree with the people who made fun of me.


I couldn't argue because every time I looked at myself, I had to accept the harsh reality. As they said, I was a scum without beauty and luck.


If I didn't already suffer enough of mine, I also had to face the world that had no regard for my feelings, even my parents felt ashamed for having as a daughter a useless being like me!


Marilyn kept shaking and didn't know what to say.


"Nobody wanted to be nice to me if they could abuse me, they did it with great fun and without shame. After all, what is the use of being kind to those who don't deserve it because it's not like the others?"


I always and only had to suffer, sometimes I wanted the night to never end because the sunrise made me remember how depressing and desperate my life was.


No smile, no friend who had given this unhappy life and no way of salvation with a little sense.


I couldn't be like the others, I always missed something.


Envy and resentment tormented me every day. As soon as I could, I closed my eyes so as not to look at others who enjoyed life and were happier than me.


I could not compete with others and I always heard from those who were happier than me that I was never competitive enough and that I was stupid and lazy and in life, I would have been nothing but ruin for everyone and would have failed afterward the other!


Throughout my life I have always heard myself say that I was too low, ugly, too stupid and I could not stand those like you who did nothing but live in the world of dreams, full of luck and love.


If life had been evil and cruel to me, then I had to become one myself, and certainly, I was tired of continuing to suffer and cry.


Marilyn managed to find the courage to answer her:


"I understood that your heart is suffering, but it certainly isn't hurting others that you will be able to heal your heart. If only you refused to be so bad and resentful, I think your life could improve. At least try it. "


As soon as he finished the sentence, unfortunately, our protagonist found herself hurled to the ground and with a punch printed on her pretty face.


"Then, you don't want to understand," replied the Malignant Serpent. "If I have become so evil it is precise because of your hypocrisy and others!"


To survive I had to fill my heart with hate and pure wickedness, and this gave me the strength to go on!


I know I am a despicable being, but seeing others, and especially women, suffering fills me with happiness and gives me life to keep going.


I was born to hurt and spread suffering, this is my evil nature and I am proud of it! "


The Snake also added, "You pretend to be friendly and with a generous heart, but secretly you look down on us and enjoy shoving in our faces that we will never be like you and that we must suffer without complaining about our cruel and infamous fate.The other Snakes and I are tired of not being considered like other women. We must take ourselves by force and deceit what you steal from us every day. "


"How?" Answered Marilyn. I didn't steal anything from you."


Yes but, you and the others steal our happiness every day and you must pay for it.


"I am unhappy, I hate my life, but if I cannot be happy because of you and all the other women, then others should not be too!"


That Snake rushed at Marilyn, but fortunately somehow managed to get up and, even if wounded, to escape from all the malignant and disgusting creature.

The Snake, unable to reach Marilyn, thought that if she could not finish it, surely in Dead Land there would have been those who were able to do it and retired to her dark meanders.


Marilyn, fed up and still shaken by that first meeting, decided to rest for a moment, sitting on a stone to regain her strength.
