Rebekah I had to squint due to the sunlight. I booked the afternoon train to get to Rhode Island from St. Louis, I was gonna get the night train but I heard someone on that train was sulking, something about "champagne problems". --------- There he was my handsome and wealthy husband, the heir of The Standard Oil name... and money. "Let's go home." --------- We approached our saltbox house, which I named "Holiday House", located on the coast. --------- As we entered the house we greeted by our wedding picture, it was charming, some people were gossiping about how I a middle-class divorcee was able to marry Bill, they also complained about how gauche it was and how "There's only so far new money goes." I got them kicked out. Hater's gonna hate. --------- I took off my cardigan, which I picked out myself, bought it from someone named betty, I don't wanna toot my own horn but I had amazing Style. "It's time to go Bill" I said to my husband, we were going to coney island today. --------- We were having a party today, I even bought a new Dress, some people called my party tasteful, other called it loud, those other people will get their dog dyed green, like my neighbor when we got into a feud. I still remember the look on his face and I faked apologized but he catched me and he said "You're not sorry, mad woman!" he screamed, it was hilarious. --------- "You need to calm down" My husband said. "But the cats ripped my curtains!" He's a madman he has 13 cats roaming around the house. I noticed he was breathing a little heavy "Bill are you okay? The doctor told us to settle down, maybe I should cancel the part-" before I finished my sentenced Bill collapsed. --------- Bill had a heart attack, today's his funeral. "Bill was the King of my heart, my true Lover, my End Game. I'll love you forever" Some people were rolling their eyes, they thought I married him for his money, fine if that's how they'll treat me I'll act the part. And that's what I did, I bought Bejeweled clothes, went to Paris, engaged in illicit affairs. But I still miss him, I remember All too well. --------- "I knew you were trouble" people say when I walk past. Or they're original and say "Look who got Karma" or "There goes the last great american dynasty" or "It must've been her fault his heart gave out" I reply with "Call it what you want" --------- Who know what could've happened if I never showed up, but what I do know is know I'm regarded as the one who "Had a marvelous time ruining everything" I gave up on the Rhode Island set a long time ago. "Heyyyy" I said to my friends, who I flew in from the city. "I filled the pool with champagne, and invited a couple people" We talked and swam with a couple people "I'm thinking of starting a ballet company" I said, Ballet has been my way to cope with Bill's death. "Oh look the boys have arrived." I said, pointing to the couple of gentlemen who have arrived, one of them is my good friend, Salvador Dali, "Wanna play cards." "Sure" He replied smirking, because I always lose. -------- They call me a shameless woman, because I go out at midnight and pace the rocks, but they'll never understand what I go through. Taylor "The house was owned by Rebekah Harkness 50 years ago" My realtor said. "Wow It's nice I'll take it" "Wait, the house has been free of woman with madness, their men and bad habits, are you sure you want to buy it" "Yes, It's mine" --------- Some call me the loudest woman this town has ever seen but I reply with something that seems very Rebekah Harkness "I had a marvelous time ruining everything"
