Novel & Cerita Jessica The Book

Jessica’s POV "Jess!" Adele squeals as she jumps into my arms. I giggle and encircle her tall figure with my arms. "I missed you so much! Oh my, I have to tell you about the hot babes. Oh, you would die." In comparison to Dominic, I have my doubts. Jessica, enough. "I think I missed you way more," I mumble in her neck, making her laugh. I notice my other best friend, Edward, as we pull away.

By the time she heard the commotion in the hallway, she was weak from it. “Gods and goddesses!” Ben bellowed as he and Jasper appeared out of nowhere. “Butchers! They’re all spawns of the devil!” Racing from female to female his voice cracked with emotion as he said to each one as he inspected their conditions, “I’m so sorry. What have they done to you?” It took several moments of asking questions before he realized that they didn’t respond because they couldn’t. “Lila?” Jasper softly choked out as he gently placed a covering over her naked, bruised, and bloody body. “Lila, it’s Jasper. I’m so sorry it took this long to rescue you.”

As if all of that isn’t ominous enough, there’s traces of blood on the map, forming a rather perfectly drawn line on it, and an arm’s length away from the setup, is a big book open on the floor too. My heart full on starts to race for more reasons than one, and I turn to meet Jessica’s sheepish smile. “Don’t freak out, okay? Sireen!” She snaps her finger in front of my face when I don’t respond after a few seconds, and I gasp quietly. This is why I always thought she was weird. All the cowries she liked to put up on her head…the freaking tea, the mysterious statements, and the even more mysterious ways in which she and I always met. All of it was because Jessica wasn’t normal.

Their expression was calm but tinged with urgency. “You’ve come far,” the stranger said, their voice layered with echoes that reverberated through the very fabric of the room. “But your journey is far from over.” “I’m tired of riddles,” Jessica shot back, her voice rising slightly. “Tell me what I need to do.” The stranger tilted their head slightly, as though considering the question. “Do? There’s nothing left to do. Only to decide.” Before she could respond, the books began to fall from the shelves, each landing open at her feet. Pages flipped rapidly, revealing fragments of lives lived and lost, choices made and undone. Some showed moments of triumph; others depicted failures so profound

Taking her bath, cooking, and even when dressing, she wouldn’t stop humming a song like a widowed witch. Daniel was tired and could not watch her that way anymore and he yelled at her to be quiet. “What’s making you so happy Jessie? You just made a deal with the devil and you are so happy?” He said. “I don’t care about that baby, that’s why we should get married soon before they come for my life,” Jessica said. Daniel sighed in frustration and he went to his closet to find something to wear for the day but then he noticed that the fake book was gone— the couple's necklace.

But it was worth it, when Jessica started coming out of her shell a little. I didn’t know all that much about Jessica before. I knew she was bookish, and smart, and liked Joyce a whole lot, but that was it. What I learned, speaking with her over dinner, was that she was headstrong and opinionated. She obviously didn’t care much for Julian, glaring at him whenever he spoke. But her smile was bright and honest for the rest of us, especially Elva. “You have such an intelligent child,” she said to me, after Elva had told Jessica how much she enjoyed reading all kinds of books. Especially the ones about animals. Elva loved animals.

“The odds of my getting out of here and meeting with them alone are next to zero.” “Can you contact this Benjamin fellow and explain the situation?” Jasper asked. “Since your safety is hinged on mine, I imagine he’ll want to do something.” Lila raised a brow at his words. How did he know that Benjamin wanted her for more than just a member of the coven? Was he psychic as well? Before she could ask, Jasper’d smiled and said, “I’m a little psychic. It comes and goes, and I can’t control what I see so it’s worthless.”

3 days ago Jessica found herself alone in Michael’s home, a rare moment of privacy. While Michael was busy with a call in another room, she casually wandered around, her eyes scanning for anything interesting. Her fingers brushed against the spines of medical books, trailed along the edges of photo frames, and finally settled on a small drawer slightly ajar.

It feels like I lost the inspiration even to want to write books in the first place. "Well, that’s why we’re here. You need to be able to let loose and live life to the fullest to have these authentic feelings. So just let go and relax. I’m going to be by your side-" Jessica's reassurance is interrupted by a text. She takes out her phone to see what the text was about. She looks up and has a face full of guilt. "I’m sorry, Christine, but I have to get something. I’ll be right back, and if I’m not, then I’ll text you," Jessica stood and leaves me by myself.

It's a handwritten book by a toddler. Lucifer looked at the drawing. It had a sun with two adults and a child in the middle. The book had a name written: Jessica's mommy and daddy. Lucifer glances through the book and turns to the second page; it says to believe. The third page says, ‘I have not abandoned you.’ The fourth page, ‘if you are reading this it is because it was planned you find this.’ As Lucifer turns the page, he sees gods hand reaching out of the sky. As he checks the other pages, it is all blank. This is where your story begins. Tossing it aside, Lucifer can't help but tear up, seeing this girl's picture with long blonde hair and about seven years old.
