"MONSTER IN HIS EYES"
Prologue
Karissa Reed/female lead
(pretending to be asleep)
Ignazio Vitale/male lead
(tracing the index finger on the curvature of her spine)
Karissa Reed/female lead
(trembling at the feather light touch)
Ignazio Vitale/male lead
(still moving his fingers)
Karissa Reed/female lead
(breath hitches)
Karissa Reed/female lead
*why must he do this to me?*
Karissa Reed/female lead
*I hate myself for it, almost as much as I hate him. and I hate him...... boy, do I hate him. I've never heated something or someone so much in my life before. I hate his hair,his smile, his eyes. I hate the word he says to me and the raspy tone of his voice. I hate the feeling he does, the man he is.I hate the way he treats me, the way he affect me, the way his hand inflict the worst kind of pain before somehow igniting a fire within me. it burns deep, raw passion and desire mixing with the purest agony.*
Karissa Reed/female lead
*I hate it.
I hate it.
I fucking hate it*
Ignazio Vitale/male lead
(reaches the small of her back,and pauses his finger, before tracinging a line along the waistband of her panties.)
Karissa Reed/female lead
*I feel my body coming alive, heating.... he's expertly kindling a fire, one only he knows how to stroke.*
Karissa Reed/female lead
*I want to douse myself in gasoline and set myself ablaze, melting away in the frames just to escape this feeling, but I know it's useless. even as a pile of ashes, I'd never get away. he is a force of nature. the air would carry me right back to him.*
Karissa Reed/female lead
*the air feels thick, like it's filled with the blackest smoke, aur maybe my lungs are just too stiff, strained long with every muscle in my body. I want to scream. I want to pull away.
....
I want to run away
but I don't, because I know he will catch me if I do.
he did it before.
he'll do it again.*
Ignazio Vitale/male lead
(training his finger up to her spine)
Karissa Reed/female lead
(keeping eyes closed and willing not feel it)
Ignazio Vitale/male lead
(touching her slowly all over the back)
Karissa Reed/female lead
(every cell inside in body is coming alive from that touch, every nerve ending sparking like livewires.)
Ignazio Vitale/male lead
(finger reaches the nape of her neck and pauses once again.....this time little longer.)
Karissa Reed/female lead
*five,ten,fifteen..... counting second in head, waiting for his next move, trying to think I had as if this is game of the chess and I can plan counter attack.*
Karissa Reed/female lead
*it's pointless even wondering.he is already captured my king. CHECKMATE.*
Ignazio Vitale/male lead
(once more, started to move finger the path of her spine, making it halfway down before deviating. explorers the rest of her back, going every which way, making shapes and forming patterns along her warm skin)
Karissa Reed/female lead
*his motion making me feel like.... I am a living Canvas and he is an artist.*
Karissa Reed/female lead
*it feels random, nonsensical, but I know this man. everything he does is for a reason. there's always method to his madness, meaning behind every word, a point to his action. and it's usually NEVER good.*
Karissa Reed/female lead
(squeezing eyes shut tighter)
Ignazio Vitale/male lead
(continue the movement of finger on her back)
Karissa Reed/female lead
*is he drawing me a pretty picture of a life he once promised, trying to make the lie seep through my skin? could he be writing a love letter, swearing to do better?.......
oh maybe it's more like ransom note.*
Ignazio Vitale/male lead
(following the same continual trail, looping and carving.)
Karissa Reed/female lead
*envision it as he does it, realising after a moment that he is spelling out a lone word in cursive.*
Karissa Reed/female lead
*VITALE*
Karissa Reed/female lead
*
Karissa Reed/female lead
*his full name is ignazio vitale, although once, not so long ago, he urged me to call him NAZ. and it was Naz who charmed me, who won me over and made me melt. it wasn't until later that I got to know the true Ignazio, and by the time I met Vitale, it was far too late to just walk away.
if I ever even could've......*
(......) this represents the action
*.......* this represents what are they thinking
episode 1
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
ugh, that's it. ( slamming the book so hard.... entire table shakes)
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
I can't take it anymore. I quit.😫
Karissa Reed/female lead
(fully concentrated on the section of text.... didn't look up)
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
this is just way too complicated
Karissa Reed/female lead
(struggling to keep focused)
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
half of it doesn't even make sense 🙄🙄
Karissa Reed/female lead
(flip the page of book)... sometimes the question are complicated and the answer are simple.
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
who said that?Pluto? I am telling you karisa that shit's not even in my book
Karissa Reed/female lead
(look at melody)
it's Plato, not Pluto.
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
oh 😯 who really fucking cares 🙄🙄...... what's the difference??
Karissa Reed/female lead
one's a philosophers,the other's a dog
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
yeah well, I am inclined to believe the dam dog make more sense than the old planet y bastard.
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
I mean listen to the shit.... many men are Loved by their enemies and hated by their friends, and are friends to their enemies, and enemies to their friend. Like...... what does that even mean?
Karissa Reed/female lead
means people are people, I guess
Karissa Reed/female lead
(scanning the text in book again)
and it wasn't Plato by the way..... it was Dr.seuss
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
seriously 😳 you are quoting Dr.seuss now?
Karissa Reed/female lead
he was sort of a philosopher himself, most of his work dealt with the logic and reason society and human nature. you can learn a lot from his book.
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
yeah well I prefer a different philosophical doctor.
I think Drey put it best when he said bitches aint shit but hoes and tricks.
Karissa Reed/female lead
😂.... and here I thought you worshipped at the altar of Tupac Shakur.
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
now that man put Pluto to shame......
a coward dies a thousand deaths... Soldier die but once.that's deep.
Karissa Reed/female lead
that's Shakespeare, straight out of Julius Caesar
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
no way😥😥
Karissa Reed/female lead
yes way
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
(open book again.......and started to cram again)
melody is damn close to failing philosophy and need to do decent on the mid term to bring up her grade. Anything less than C and she's skipping down the path of probation, straight toward suspension.
karrisa is may not be in danger of failing,per se, her scholarship is a different story. She doesn't belong to wealthy wall street bankers like melody and can afford to piss around. Her mother isn't in position to help her.....and her father......not all of us have one of those.
Karissa Reed/female lead
*if my GPA dips any lower, I am on my own . and if I am on my own, I am fucked six ways to Sunday. something tell me NYU won't take an IOU as tution payment*
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
whose bright idea was it to take this class, anyway? ( mutter )
Karissa Reed/female lead
yours,......you said it would be easy.
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
it supposed to be easy..... it's philosophy it's like opinions there are no wrong answer when it's someone opinions right? I mean it's supposed to be rational and logical things that make sense not this existential science bullshit
Karissa Reed/female lead
Ah... it's not so bad.
*truthfully I like philosophy all b******* aside if it weren't for our professor am I even love it*
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
not of bad? it's way too much thinking
Karissa Reed/female lead
(closed the book and glancing around cafe)
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
only you karrisa....
we get a freak 70 degree day in March and you still order hot chocolate and wear a goddamn scarf
Karissa Reed/female lead
(take a sip of drink.... savouring the rich creamy chocolate flavour)
Karissa Reed/female lead
what's wrong with my scarf?
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
pretty sure it's what Aristotle was talking about when he said how awful the truth is when there is no helping it
Karissa Reed/female lead
(burst out laughing)😂😂
Karissa Reed/female lead
sophocles said that
Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate

Karissa Reed/female lead

Melody Carmichael/fl's roommate
