Burn baby

Jesse sat in her room and looked at her neatly iron clothes. Not a single crease or stain.1

Her hands were perfectly manicured and painted; her body was clean and fresh for the shower before.2

She could the heat from the fire; it was causing all the hairs on her body to stand up. She looked at it blazing and spitting, it was beautiful. 3

She turned around and looked through the window. It was beautiful view; she could see the city below her, with all its chaos and noise. But she could also see the lights glimmering. 4

She diverted her gaze back to the room; the bathroom was letting off the soft steam and stretching out towards her. She sat down on the neatly made bed with white sheets and sighed.5

She took and sip of her champagne and looked around, this was what she always wanted, to looks perfect and have everything around her perfect.6

She sighed one last time and took in her surroundings and went over to corner and picked up a red container. She unscrewed the lid, and poured the liquid around the corners of the room. Then she moved to the centre of the moved around quickly spelling out a word.7

She got a piece of paper from the blazing fire and held it down to the liquid. The fire came alive instantly and spread around the room quickly. Jesse smiled and lay down in the middle of the room and felt the heat surrounding her. The fire was getting hotter and more intense, and somewhere in the distance she heard the faint sound of the fire alarming going off. She felt the flames get closer to her and embraced the pain, her skin was now hot.  Suddenly the sprinkles came to life.8

“No!” she screamed and ran to the corner of the room where the fire was hotter.9

Instantly Jesse felt the heat, her skin was burning. The fire was burning and eating away at her flesh. Jesse began to scream and the flames kept on burning, melting and feeding off her skin. Jesse could feel her breathing getting shorter; there was no more oxygen for her anymore. Now Jesse was crying and screaming, the fire had succeed in melting her skin and now her skin was joining with other parts of her body forming massive parts of skin on her body. 10

The lack of oxygen was choking her and the pain was too intense yet Jesse did not move the pain was some how relieving. 11

After 2mins the fire had melted the skin around her face, Jesse could only hear the blooding pounding in her head. She could no longer see or feel her arms, they had all melted. The fire was devouring every bit of her flesh. Jesse body was now deteriorating and she couldn’t take it anymore.12

The pain was excruciating and she could no longer feel her face the fire had melted all the features on her face to only skin.13

“No… longer a failure.” She said.14
