Alexis: I’ll look at you in a minute….
Lexi continues to browse, clicking the checkout option on the Kurt Geiger and Michael Kors websites. After completing the orders for Brooke’s gifts, she moves the cursor of the mouse over to the HWA App icon and clicks on it and there it was, a new video from Briar. She reflexively rolls her eyes.
Alexis: This should be interesting…
Lexi watches Briar has to say and once the video finishes, she leans back in her chair, her face contorted in an expression that says “Aw hell no!”. She prods the inside of her cheek with tongue, a derisive grunt escaping her lips.
Alexis: You have GOT to be kidding me?!
Lexi signs into the HWA App using her talent sign-on details and navigates to the upload section. Before she begins, she cricks her neck to the side and exhales deeply through her nose. She waits for the light to turn red and then begins to speak.
Alexis: Ok, little sister, little daughter of darkness, you ignorant, disillusioned quim! If your intent was to grab my intention then congratulations, sweetheart, you f*cking got it! You think I’m some plastic blonde doll who’s afraid to get hurt? Experience the real world? Terrified of the perils of Mother Nature?
Lexi scoffs, shaking her head with contempt.
Alexis: Honey, I grew up in Adams County, Ohio! I got bitten by a Northern Copperhead when I was thirteen. Every camping trip we had to check for Eastern Timber Rattlers, black widows, brown recluses, coyotes, you name it. My dad is a veteran firefighter, I was raised in firehouses! I’ve seen men and women I’ve known my whole life go off to risk their lives and not come back. I watched my f*cking brother die in front my very eyes when some asshole decided the paper in his wallet was worth more than his life! So don’t you f*cking dare assume you know ANYTHING about me!
Lexi takes a moment to compose herself, she knew she Briar had gotten under her skin but she didn’t care at this point. So much of what she had said touched too many nerves.
Alexis: And if I were you, Briar, I’d be a little less concerned with my exercise routine and my sex life and more worried about what I’m going to do to you at Havoc. See, it may be your precious sister and Sarah’s match but if you think I’m going to let you leave North Little Rock with all of your teeth in your mouth and your face in one piece, you’ve got another thing coming, you ignorant, close-minded bitch! I don’t know what you’re on about when you’re talking about me going after someone who’s married but then again, it doesn’t surprise me you jump in feet first without getting yourself clued up on the facts. Speaking of which, see that?
Lexi turns her iMac so it faces the wall, where her diploma hangs.
Alexis: Graduated with Honors in Education Studies from Bowling Green State! So take your narrow-minded, braindead ideals and shove them up your ass! Better yet, I might just do it myself next week! Whether it’s mocking my sexuality, my looks, my education, making blind assumptions, all you’ve done is poked the bear, Briar and the claws are out. At Havoc, I’m gonna tear your f*cking head off, bitch!
The scene fades to black with Lexi staring at the screen, her eyes ablaze with menacing intent.
