Everybody has heard of the story of Romeo and Juliet. You know the "star crossed lovers". Well, the story of Rosaline and Pierre is similar to that. Except the love didn't go both ways. It was one-sided. To make it clearer, I will go by Pierre's point of view.
You see he loved Rosaline with every fiber in his being. It all started when he was five. When they first met, Pierre was being picked on by a group of boys who hated him. You see he was poor and they were rich. They were both in two different social classes and Pierre, being poor, made them hate him.
The boys were raised to hate those below them. In this case it was Pierre. Who they thought was nothing more than a dog. Back to the story, as the boys chased him they hurt abused him. Both physically and verbally. They called him names and threw rocks at him, beat him with sticks, and threw mud at him.
Pierre was crying and curled up in a ball when Rosaline came. Like the other boys, she came from a very rich family. Rosaline hated bullies so she stuck up for him. And since the group of boys didn't want to make enemies with one of them sot powerful families, they ran off.
Rosaline took care of his wounds and treated him kindly. That was all it took. Even though at the time he didn't know it, Pierre began to fall in love with Rosaline. As they got older the feeling grew stronger. Soon he became completely obsessed with her. That's when he discovered his talent as a painter.
All of his private pictures were pictures of Rosaline that he showed no one. Everyday he would paint a picture of her doing something she loved. Gardening, signing, dancing, laughing, or just standing there. He loved her with all of his being. But she didn't love him.
One day, when Pierre was going to tell her he loved her, Rosaline was with another man. They were hugging, laughing, and kissing. When Rosaline finally noticed Pierre she smiled happily and showed him her ring.
Pierre was totally crushed, but faked a smile anyway. Rosaline was oblivious to his pain. The man was handsome and named Pedro. Pedro was mannerly and polite, but Pierre still wanted him dead.
As the weeks went by, Rosaline visited him less. Soon she stopped coming at all.
A few years passed and Pierre has never seen Rosaline again. That is until she comes over one day with a child. That shocked Pierre beyond belief. But he should have expected it. Rosaline spoke to him in her same calm, loving voice, but something was wrong. Her voice was hollow and sad as if she was going threw some type of pain.
Pierre, of course, questioned her about it, but she shook it off and changed the subject. Rosaline began visiting like old times, but for different reasons. One is to get away from her husband. Pierre didn't know what was going on until Rosaline broke down.
She told him how her husband beats her and the children, how every night he rapes her, and hurts her. But Rosaline still loves him no matter what he does. This makes Pierre blood boils, but he doesn't do say anything, but comforts her.
One day Pierre walks Rosaline home and has a run in wit her husband. Who at the time was overly drunk. He began yelling at her and hitting her. Taking no notice to Pierre at all. The anger that Pierre held in all those years finally came out and he killed Pedro. Right in cold blood in front of Rosaline. Her eyes were wide in shock and then the tears came. She cried over his body and as she cried Pierre felt no pity, only anger.
He kept asking himself why she loved Pedro and not him. He was there for her threw thick and thin and she only cares about the bastard who hurt her. Pierre then did something that he would regret. He killed the child and then raped Rosaline. After that, he hid the bodies and went on with his ordinary life. But it wasn't as easy as he thought.
Pierre started to go crazy because his nightmares were haunted by Rosaline. Soon he took his own life.
And that's it. This is there story. It's not a happy, but not all stories are happy. Frankly, I don't care. Rosaline's own beauty was her downfall and Pierre's jealousy destroyed him. Sad isn't it, how beauty can hurt and how Jealousy can kill. I guess this story shows us what one-sided love can do. So beware, it can kill you.
