Jealous Vs Envy Novels & Stories

“N-Nagseselos ka ba?” Liam had a long pause as he composed himself again. He sat straight and stared at her intently… “I am… I am jealous. I don’t want to hear his name coming from you…Is it not okay to get jealous?” Matiim nitong pananalita. He harshly bit his lower lip. “Do you still think that the Luis you’ve met is different from the present he is today?”

Her composure was back. But I saw something flicker beneath it. Rebellion. And something else. Confusion. “Is he competition?” I asked. Her lips parted slightly. “Competition for what?” I stepped closer again. Slow. Deliberate. “For you.” Her breath caught. Barely. But enough. “You don’t get to be jealous,” she said. “I’m not jealous.” Lie. “I’m observant.” “You’re territorial.” “Yes.” The honesty shocked her. And thrilled me.

"Bakit? Dahil ba bata pa rin ako sa paningin mo at hindi pa ako tapos sa studies ko? Kailangan ba talaga tapusin ko muna ang college bago ako magkaroon ng boyfriend?" "No, dahil nagseselos ako Niamh and I don't want this kind of feeling. Goodnight…" Tumayo siya at dinampot ang baso ng gatas niya saka niya ako iniwan na naka-awang ang labi habang nakasunod ang tingin sa malapad niyang likod. Jealous means? Love?

"Pero para sa akin kasi, kapag nagseselos ang isang tao sa simpleng bagay lang ay malamang wala siyang tiwala sa'yo. At bilang babae masakit sa parte natin na pagdudahan." "Not all—" "Yeah, not all. But that's my own perception. My definition of jealous. I hate jealous people because for me its shows a lack of trust in your partner. At kung magkakaroon man ako ng karelasyon, I won't settle for a jealous type of man like that. Ayokong masakal," ani Kyline kaya agad akong napatayo sa kinaroroonan at dire-diretsong lumabas ng restaurant.

Sinusubukan ko pang itanggi pero ito pala talaga ang nararamdaman ko. Jealousy. "I'm jealous for the way you look at them! Lagi mong ipinaparamdam sa akin na importante ako sayo pero ganun ka rin sa iba! I hate it when you do that! So yes I'm jealous! Kasi napapatawa ka ng iba at napapasaya ka nila bagay na hindi ko magawa! Nag siselos ako at naiinis na dinadamay kita sa pagiging miserable nag buhay ko! I'm jealous b--... " naputol ang sinabi ko at nanlaki nalang ang mata ko sa gulat nang sakupin bigla ng labi niya ang labi ko.

Mas matagal ang pinagsamahan nilang dalawa kumpara sa kanila ni Hellios, At kahit ayaw niya ay hindi niya mapigilan ang insecurity na unti-unting pumapasok sa puso niya. Jealousy comes from insecurity. The more insecure you are, the bigger the jealousy. Like a wound that festers, it never heals but grows bigger. Your body hurts as if the wound covered all of your skin. Jealousy and insecurity are two deadly combinations. Nang makarating sila sa ospital kung saan naka-admit si Bianca ay agad na bumaba si Hellios. Ni hindi man lang siya nito nilingon at dire-diretsong pumasok ng ospital. Lakad takbo ang ginawa nilang dalawa bago makarating sa kwarto ni Bianca. Parang ayaw na tuloy niyang pumun

“Anthony, naka-swimsuit din naman 'yung iba. Bakit ako lang pinoproblema mo?” “Because you’re mine. Mas attractive ang Filipina beauty sa ganitong lugar,” he said seriously. “And I don’t like sharing what’s mine.” Pinisil ko ang kamay niya. “Jealous ka na naman.” “I’m not jealous. I’m just protective.” “Magkaiba ba 'yun?” biro ko. “Yes,” he insisted. “Jealous is when I get insecure. Protective is when I don’t want anyone touching what belongs to me. And you belong to me, Kira.”

Kumunot na rin ang noo ko nang maramdaman na tila tinutusok ang puso. I smiled bitterly. "I'm jealous. What are you going to do about?" I asked the same question he asked. "Magpapabugbog? Ihaharap sa babae na iyon at ipamukha na ako ang reyna?" Natawa ako nang mapait. Hindi ko namalayan na tumutulo na rin ang luha ko. Shit! This jealousy is a scary thing. "Anong laban ko roon? Maganda siya. Maganda rin ang hubog ng katawan niya. At—"

Hindi tuloy siya makakain ng maayos. “Here, I’ll read it aloud. Jealousy is when you want something that is not yours. Territorial is protecting what’s already yours. Lexie also put a snake emoticon as the caption.” Nadia glanced up and shrugged. Her eyes clouded with concern. “What do you think? Sounds like it was meant for you.” “Yeah, sounds like it,” she sighed. And it really hit her hard. Inikot niya ang tingin sa buong cafeteria. She was wondering what do these people think of her right now. Sa paningin rin ba ng mga ito ay siya ang masama at mang-aagaw?

“Enzo, are you seriously jealous of Tristan?” Inis na inis na ako sa mga nararamdaman ko kaya’t sumagot ako ng hindi ko na napigilan: “Yes, I am! Hindi ko na kayang makita kayong magkasama ng matagal. I just… I just want to be the one you need. I’m sorry, pero natatakot akong mawala ka sa akin.” Ngumiti siya, pero hindi ko mawari kung ano ang ibig niyang iparating. “You’re not losing me, Enzo, but Tristan is just… he’s my friend. I don’t understand why you’re so jealous.”
