I secretly hate Alexa.
God... who does she think she is? She comes up with so many good ideas and she makes me look bad. She's so smart. It's so annoying. I mean, who gave her the right to be so amazing? Like, she knows our story inside and out. She plays out the story in her head just like I do. I hate it. When we're writing our script, she knows which adjustments to make and whether we need to add or delete something. I feel so useless. It's like she can totally write the script without me, but she's nice enough to make me feel like I'm actually doing something... even though it's all really her.
When I suggest something, she always agrees with me. She keeps saying that my ideas are good. I know she's lying! God... I wish we would just fight sometimes. We get along so well. That's a terrible issue. Partners should never be perfect with each other. It totally ruins everything. We're not supposed to have chemistry with each other... figuratively and literally.
In class, she sits there and types like a pro. Then I look at myself. I realize that Alexa's just so damm good at everything. I hate it. I keep trying to find flaws, but I come up with nothing. One day, I'm going to find something wrong with her! But all my efforts will be pointless. She's just too perfect.
Mr. Lemos said that we need to change several things with the script. Alexa and I agreed. We haven't exactly established what our conflict is and that's an issue. The story is there, we just need to find a way to rewrite the script so that the conflict is more distinct amd obvious. Alexa was already coming up with different things we could do to fix our script problems. I just smile and nod. She knows what she's doing.
And it's her birthday this Friday. What the heck, man?! At 16, she's already amazing. At 17?! I don't even know what's going on anymore. It feels like just yesterday, she was younger than me. Now she's my age too?! She just won't let me catch a break, can she?
I really hate Alexa.
I really do.
