It’s not Belle. It’s not the Belle French we know and love.
Our Belle would never dump Rumple because of a simple assumption. She would
forgive, listen, and be more understanding than this. This new Belle is
unforgiving, hateful, and even short-fused. She is a dark Belle, an
unpredictable Belle. Something’s got the good Belle and imprisoned her deep
inside the body of the bad Belle.
I would like to think back to the book Teardrop. In
the story, Eureka’s best friend Brooks becomes possessed by a dark force and
does everything he can to hurt her to the point she could cry. I have to say
that the actions of Brooks when he’s possessed are very parallel to Belle’s new
behavior. Like the mind of the one possessing Brooks, I think that Belle’s
anger and distrust have gotten control of her and she’s not herself anymore.
If you’re not convinced that Belle is currently displaying
her bad self, let me ask you this: would the good, kindhearted Belle cheat on
her husband while he’s out of town…by her hand? Would the loving Belle just
discard Rumple like a useless, pathetic doll and get him as far away from her
as possible? And would the wise Belle just listen to the words of someone who
wasn’t born at that time and yet held a bad view of his father? The answer to
all three questions is “no”. The good Belle would shower her husband with
unconditional love and give him limitless chances for love whether he deserves
it or not. Also, was she not the one who always looked for the good in people?
I sincerely hope that the good Belle comes back soon before
any irreversible regrets can be made. If Belle lets her forgiveness and ability
to see goodness in people die, then the good side of Belle will die with them.
