Jess And Rory Novels & Stories

Jealousy burned within me, and I had to remind myself that Klyde and I were bound by marriage, even if our connection felt strained. Finally, Jess waved goodbye and walked away. Klyde stood there for a moment, his gaze fixed on the spot where she had disappeared. I felt a knot in my stomach, a mixture of insecurity and frustration. Why did her presence affect me this way? I had no right to be jealous – after all, he was still the cold, distant husband who barely acknowledged my existence.

Never. And yet here he was, buried in dirt and shadow, while monsters still walked and the real villains still breathed. I stared at the grave until my knees hurt. There was no justice in this war. Just survivors. And death. And I was beginning to wonder if there was even a difference. Rory disappeared that morning, walking off into the brush like she was going to pick berries. She never came back. The next few days passed like smoke—shifting, shapeless. The air felt heavier without Leo’s voice to cut through the silence.

Palangoy langoy si Jess sa swimming pool habang si Tiffany naman nasa Jacuzzi, gusto niya kasing ma relax lalo na pakiramdam niya hinihilot siya ng tubig.

Sabi ko at binigyan siya ng contact lens. Hazel brown ang kulay ng mga mata ni Jessy kaya Kailangan niyang magsuot ng itim na contact lens upang maitago ang totoong kulay nito.

"Alin ang walang masama? What is it exactly that you have seen? Ano ang sa palagay mo ang nakita mo?" "You and Rob. You can't deny the chemistry between you," tudyo nito. Inis sa sarili sa naging reaksyon kay Robbie kanina, si Jess ang napagbuntunan niya. Pagbukas ng pinto ng elevator, mabilis na tinalikuran niya ang kapatid kahit hindi sa floor na iyon ang pakay niya. "Julia!" Hindi na niya pinansin ang pagtawag nito.

ng isipan ko sakin. "Hi Ton! Welcome to the University." wika ni Jess sakin. "Ha hi Jess, salamat." munting tugon ko sa kanya. Bigla akong nag ka roon ng hiya ng makita ko si Gab at Ken na naka tingin lang samin, pati na rin si Aling Nena. "Pag ka nga naman swineswerte ka iho, may nobya ka agad sa Unibersidad." pabirong wika ni Aling Nena sakin, nakita ko naman si Gab na tila naka simangot, ano naman kayang problema netong kaibigan ko?
