Over Jealous 소설 & 이야기

"It's true. We have a contract, an arrangement. You can sleep with whoever you want. Bring whoever you want, I don't have any claim on you." He studied me for a long moment. "And yet you were jealous." "I wasn't….." "You were." He tilted his head, that infuriating smirk returning. "You were jealous of Leona. You were jealous of the way she touched me, talked to me, looked at me." "I was annoyed, there's a difference." "Is there?" "Yes. Jealousy implies that I care. Annoyance implies that….." "That you care."

This sour and bitter feeling churning nonstop in my chest is making me want to destroy something. I don't go to bed. Instead I turn around and pretend to be thirsty. Sneaking glances at my husband and Jo the motherfucker, I volunteer to wash the dishes, something I've never done before. I bet Jo and Alessio are sleeping together or have slept together. Hold on.

he pressed. He sounded jealous. And I loved it. “Mr. Gulden, are you jealous?” I asked in a flirty voice, slipping one shoulder of my top down slowly. “God damn it, Zara, who is he?” Adie shouted, making me flinch and step back.

What’s not natural is when the jealousy is so blind that you hurt her physically and emotionally. *** “You said you’re inviting a designer today. Where is she?” asked Ansel. He looked around. No one was in the living room but the couple. They looked confused. They stared blankly at the door. “Why are you dumbfounded?” Ansel waved his hand in front of Felix’s eyes. Felix and Joanna came to their senses.

and she already left without smiling. [Shrug] I just feels so weird. I’m just being friendly, that's all. Awhile ago, I felt nervous but now I felt angry. What a bitchy attitude she have. I just rolled my eyes. I hope my other boss have a good personality. I really hope so. I wish I have a hunk boss so I can have inspiration while working. I’m just joking. I just want to have a decent job right now. The security personnel who brings me here, suddenly popped out in somewhere so I got shocked. So weird.

Three seconds later, mine buzzes back. 《I’m simply marveling at the lack of standards some people have for their company, Miss Ellis.》 I hide my smile behind my water glass and type: 《you’re not jealous, are you?》 The response takes slightly longer this time, which I find very telling. 《Jealous would require me to consider whatever that is a competition. It is entirely illogical to be jealous of something I am objectively superior to》 I press my lips together against a laugh and look up at the ceiling for a moment and then type:

The flavour burst into my taste buds nicely and I moaned in delight at the taste. “ Jealous?.. Me? Why will I be?” He stuttered and I only smiled at how cute he looked with jealousy written all over him. “ I just don't want my cousin's hands all over what is mine” “ Sounds like jealousy to me” He raised his eyebrow at me, something he does anytime I'm winning in an argument.

It wasn’t jealousy. It was disgust.

“Are you jealous?” Those words sent flames all over my body. I turned to him, my voice trembling. “Don’t reduce what I’m feeling right now to just jealousy. It’s more than that. It’s anger and hurt.”
