First Love First Sin

2

As I looked at that photo of Adam I remembered our first encounter. I was so innocent pure and naive, with no knowledge of the world. I remember how mesmerized I was the second I first saw him.

We were all alone, and as he looked into my eyes I knew he would always protect me. What I didn't knew then is that "always" meant an eternity, and no one stays by your side that long...

I did not have much time to drown myself in memories, as two guards came by my cell and grabbed me, I was being taken to the interrogation room.

-C'mon Ms. Adams, Mister Johnson is waiting for you.

- Yes, I'm sure he can't wait to see me again! I said while rolling my eyes sarcastically to the guards.

As I was passing through them, I noticed the way they were looking at me. They were taking great pleasure in gloating upon me. I know I am a beautiful woman, a flawless creation of God Himself, so beautiful that I could be a perfect masterpiece, and I am not saying this out of lack of modesty, but I would offend God, if  I said otherwise, He, Whom gave me the perfect figure, a faultless figure, and this is why I chose to keep my appearance very close of what God created me. My long red hair with perfectly circled curles,reached the end of my back, and my green eyes always looked inside of every soul I glanced in my entire life. God had given me many gifts and many burdens as well.

As I reached the end of the hall and walked inside my torture room, the guards were practically drooling. There was Alex, one of many others who could never understand my life, I am a proud woman so I started smiling as I was entering the room. I never want to show pain nor weakness.

-So I see you're in a good mood Ms Adams. Can I know why?

- Of course you can my dear Alex. Your guards made me smile.

- And how is that?

-They just did. I see you brought me here again, so I'm guessing that you'll be questioning me again.

-I like that about you Eve. You are smart and you show me no fear. Please be smart and don't make a monster of me. Cooperate and give me the answers I need.

- Am I that smart or are you so very predictable? It is easier for human kind to find excuses, even by completing others, then to notice it's own flaws. And if I won't talk? You brought me here because you think that I am some sort of an immortal being. What are you going to do my dear Alex if I don't say anything?

-There are ways to make you speak Eve. You are the most beautiful woman I've seen in my entire life, it would sadden me so much to scar and ruin that perfect beauty of yours. All I want it's your story.

- Are you going to kill me if I am not willing to speak with you? Poor you Alex! If you actually believe in your theory, then you must be in such a difficult situation. What a paradox, to threaten with death an immortal? I don't know if its to laugh or to get concerned over your mental state.

- You are so brave, but there are other ways than killing you. As I said dear, sweet Eve, just tell me your story and we can forget all about this.

-And then? After I'll tell you my story, what then? Ok, I'll tell you! Then you're gonna keep me here for God knows how long and you will try to understand something that no science can explain. I'll be in pain and locked here who knows for how long and all for nothing, because even if I'll tell you my story, your brain will refuse to believe it. So why waste my time? Do your best my dear and show me what a monster you can be! You are not the first one I've met, at least try to be a better one than others were.

As I looked at his frowned face I noticed a struggle. He was fighting himself. Alex the male, wasn't happy to harm me, on the other hand, Alex the officer had to to do his job. But even though I saw his struggle I also knew what part of him will win that fight.

-Ok Eve. I am so sorry that I have to this, but you give me no choice. Strap her to the chair boys, and let the fun begin.

They thought a simple human torture would make me speak. How ignorant of them. Ahh! They are zapping me with electric shocks. What a shock...

An hour passed and I have skin burns. I look at Mister Johnson and smile. Every time I do that,I can see in his eyes that his regret for hurting me grows deeper.

- Please Eve. Stop this. Stop me! Tell me what I need to know! How? Just give me an answer for God sake, just tell me something, anything!!

- Go on with your torture my dear. You won't make me speak. Stop despairing because either way, you don't have the capacity to understand my story.

If he only knew that I faced real monsters in my long life. He was just a mere human. If i were to speak in a more biblical way...he was a child of mine...

- I noticed you stealing that photo of you and that man. You care about him, am I right?

- Just stop with the questions and zap me again, lets end this already.

How on earth did he saw me lift that picture...?

He was good...but not enough!

- I thought I told you to zapp me! Or what...you can't do it anymore?

He looked at me with disbelief. I saw his pain for hurting me like that...and yet i knew he won't stop at anything. He wanted to know how am I still roaming the Earth. Immortality....such a desired curse. If they only knew that this it's not a gift. It was meant to be a curse and it sure did acted like one. I lived for so long and yet my eyes shed so many tears.
