Fascinating (A Duskwood Fanfiction)

Chapter 6

After (YN) talked to Lilly about Phil and her plan to visit the Aurora Bar, she decided to get back to the apartment to refresh herself. Lilly wanted to accompany her but coincidentally she was advised to have overtime because their guest, (YN) told her it's okay and she will just take care of herself but if something bad happens she must contact Lilly right away.

While staying in the living room, she noticed a few picture frames with Lilly herself, with Hannah, and with her family in the top of the drawer. They seem a quite good family in those pictures but she thought about Jake suddenly. She just turned away, trying not to think any negative thoughts while she's here. (YN) looked back on her phone and she remembered Jessy. Yes, she could talk to her in person besides she's already seen by her brother. She dialed Jessy's number right away and just within a couple of seconds, Jessy answered her.

"Hello, (YN)." Jessy answered with a joyful tone.

"Hi, Jessy. I was just wondering, if I can meet you today? At the Rainbow Café maybe." (YN) asked continuously.

"Wait, you're here?" Jessy asked out of amusement in her voice.

"Yes. So, can we meet?"

" Absolutely. Good thing it's my break. I will just tell Richy that I will be gone for a mean time." She confirmed.

"That's nice. See you there."

"Sure. OMG! Bye!"

(YN) turn her phone off and change her clothes. After that she rode her own car and drove straight into Rainbow Café. When she got in the place she already ordered two slices of strawberry shortcake and teas for her and Jessy. She waited for her within ten minutes as she spotted a red haired woman entering the café, she's wearing a yellow top with skinny jeans and she really looked like a bright and pretty person. (YN) waved her hand to her and Jessy beamed a smile the moment she saw her; they both hugged each other as they sat opposite on the round table.

"Thank goodness, Richy let me have a longer break." Jessy started.

"Maybe he also thinks that we have so much to talk about that's why." Both of them laughed and Jessy agreed to what she said.

They continue to have fun, long and girly conversations about themselves. They shared their common favorites, Jessy asked so many clichés and random questions and (YN) seems happy to answer them.

However, there are some topics they have decided to avoid but at least Jessy was fine to discuss her attack last time with the man without the face. For her, it's pretty traumatizing because it might possibly be the abductor of Hannah. (YN) felt worried about her when she saw that in the video call, she keep on listening to Jessy's stories until she realized again that the man without a face is just merely to scare her, to tell the others what happened therefore they will become scared of their lives, just like on Cleo who were seen in the woods.

Nevertheless, Jessy told (YN) that she's finally fine and she will just take a lot of precautions once something like that happens again; (YN) was relieved to hear the recovery of Jessy. However, (YN) cannot be that confident enough because the storm is yet calm for now and worst things will once again come in their way, she just needs to be ready for that.

When (YN) finishes her tea, she asks Jessy the real reason why they meet.

"Jessy, by the way," She said, placing the cup on the table. Jessy looked at her. "I remember when your brother asked me to visit his bar, I happened to meet him on the way when I was strolling here this morning. He asked me again about his visitation, I am thinking if you could come with me?" (YN) explained.

"You talked to my brother first before me? That's not fair you know." Jessy said in a mockery manner, (YN) chuckled.

"Well, not my intentions to see him though. So, is it okay for you to accompany me tonight?"
