Jealousy
364 Words
It had been a few weeks since Sarah, Luna, and Orion had their honest conversation. Things were going well, and they were all making an effort to be open and respectful of each other. But one day, Sarah found herself feeling jealous again. She saw how close Luna and Orion were, and she started to feel insecure. She couldn't shake the feeling that Luna was trying to steal Orion away from her.
As the three friends hung out together, Sarah noticed Luna and Orion laughing and chatting more than usual. She felt left out, and she began to interrupt their conversation, trying to insert herself into the discussion.
"It's like you're speaking a different language," Sarah said, trying to sound lighthearted. But her tone came across as sharp and sarcastic.
Luna and Orion exchanged a look, their smiles fading. "What do you mean?" Luna asked.
"I just feel like you two have your own little world, and I'm not part of it," Sarah said, her voice rising.
Orion looked concerned. "Sarah, that's not true. We care about you and we want you to be a part of our friendship. But you're making it difficult when you're rude and dismissive."
Sarah's face flushed with embarrassment. "I'm sorry," she said, looking down at her hands. "I guess I've just been feeling insecure lately. I know it's not an excuse, but I want you to know that I'm trying to do better."
Luna reached out and put her hand on Sarah's arm. "I know it's not easy, but we're all in this together.
Sarah's jealousy and insecurity boiled over, and she started to act out in a way that she would later regret.
As Luna and Orion were talking, Sarah began to feel a surge of anger. She couldn't stand the way they were bonding without her. She had to do something to make them see that she was just as important as they were.
So, without thinking, she reached out with her mind and sent a wave of energy toward Luna. She didn't know exactly what she was doing, but she knew she wanted to hurt Luna.
Luna felt a sudden, sharp pain in her head.
