Jay Lewis I Hope Novels & Stories

I hoped I would one day be healed of this sickness, but here I am, still fucking struggling to breathe everytime it rains. I hoped mother and Sylvia would love me one day, but all they’ve ever done is hurt me. I hoped papa would never die and leave me all alone in this world, but my last memory of him is his body hanging from our ceiling fan. I hoped Drake would love me, but he looked me in the eye and chose my twin sister over me. So I won’t hope anymore. I won’t hope that the intense look in Harlan’s eyes means he feels something for me.

Roy with his serious face plainly said, “Protocol.” “Leila…” “Just let him be, Juls.” Her sweet voice eventually convinced Julius to give way. Leila is on the couch opposite him, holding her tablet. No matter how upsetting Julius’ presence is for Leila, she still feels happy. The article that Eleanor Stein wrote about her lawsuit was something that would fill her happiness jar for a straight week. “You seem happy,” he commented.

“I love this first one. It’s freakin’ hilarious.” Leesa hoped so. She was going to need something pretty freakin’ hilarious to take her mind off Rave.

“Now, let’s get to class before we’re late.” As they walked down the hallway, Lily couldn’t help but feel a sense of hope. Despite all the chaos and uncertainty surrounding them, moments like this reminded her that there was still room for happiness and new beginnings.

“He's not with the other kids. They're probably just out playing hide and seek or something, but...” “But?” Laura felt the pressure in the room change. It was the same feeling she got before a big thunderstorm. It was the feeling she got right before she got the call about her parents. Jace looked uncomfortable. “But, I can't find Jupiter either.” The bottom slowly dropped out of Laura's stomach. It felt like she was leaking all her substance and would crumple to the floor like a used balloon, yet somehow her legs stayed beneath her and she didn't collapse.

said Jake "Yeah, that guy would never-oh look who's here," Gray said while staring at the glass doors of the airport entrance, this made Jake turn his head towards where Gray was looking and they saw a very flustered looking Skylar jogging and waving his hands towards them. "Ugh he acts like a child I swear," said Gray with an annoyed expression "Don't be so harsh on him," Jake spoke while waving back at Skylar "Hey, *huff* guys! I'm so sorry *huff* for making you guys wait for so long!!" Said, Skylar

Looking at my reflection in the elevator doors, I replied, "Let's leave it to fate." As the elevator doors opened, Miles and Nora were standing there, chatting intimately. The moment Miles saw me with Carter, his expression darkened instantly. "Leilani Jabs, are you so desperate for a man that you're talking about 'fate' with someone younger?" I simply smiled faintly at him, unwilling to respond. Carter cleared his throat. "Uncle Miles, you misunderstood Leilani. Don't you have someone else now anyway?"

She stood at the podium, while Adryan sat in the front row, his gaze never leaving her. “Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, honored guests," she said, her voice strong and clear. "My name is Gabriella Lewis, and I am the founder of the Hope Foundation. I am not here to talk about numbers. I am here to talk about hope." She then told the story of Leo, the little boy who loved dinosaurs, and who called "tyrannosaurus" "King T-Rex." She spoke of his bravery and his love for life. She spoke of the importance of not giving up, and of the power of hope.

As my hand fell, Janine seemed to understand everything, and all hope drained from her. “I told you. Our relationship ended a long time ago.” I had saved her not just out of gratitude to Mr. O'Connor, but because I didn’t want her to die so easily. Living half-paralyzed, in constant suffering, would be far worse than death. I would never forget the soul-deep pain from being skinned in my last life. With Janine’s reckoning behind me, I turned to the stage and unveiled my survival plan to everyone. From power-free shelters to heat-resistant suits and emergency medical treatments, the audience gasped in awe. By the end, the applause didn’t stop.
