I had a dream last night.
oh yeah?
what about
I was dying. I mean I think I was.
The stars were really bright. It was cold too.
Then the fire flies came, which doesn't make a lot of sense. They don't like the cold.
It was really peaceful though.
everything ok?
Yeah, I'm okay. I was just thinking.
about dying?
More so about what I'd be leaving behind. It made me realize something. I'd only be leaving my mom, which is kind of sad don't you think?
willa
Yes?
is this because of tomorrow?
if you're scared you can say that
it's ok
Jasper, tomorrow could change everything. If it's serious enough, they'll keep me over night to run all these crazy tests then next thing you know, two weeks later I could be going under chemo.
they've all been benign
you said it yourself
im sure this one wont be any different
You can't guarantee that.
no, i cant
but i can guarantee you if you need someone, there is this dude like right across the yard
he has gorgeous black hair, pretty tall too
if that's something you're interested in, hm?
Interested in?
yeah
Oh I don't knowwwww. If you couldn't tell by now, I tend to stick to myself.
there's nothing wrong with a little bit of change
change is scary
but most definitely worth it
I'd like to hear some terms and conditions before considering anything.
of course of course
to be my—if you will—partner in crime, one thing you'll have to get use to is more in person visits
you can't come over just once and leave kona hanging like that, you know?
two, learning sign language, you probably won't have your phone to be able to talk to me plus it'll be like our thing, and just for the sake of being introverted XD
lastly, no lying to each other
i want to know what's going on with you as it happens, ok? so you'll have someone to talk to about this stuff that isn't your mom. it's not good to bottle everything up
are these conditions sounding a little far fetched?
No, not at all. I already know sign language though, Jasper.
what?? since when
Since you moved in.
🥀
I knowww, I know, I've been gone awhile and I apologize for that. I won't make excuses and instead will say this. Thank you guys for the love and support even through the blackout moments I have in writing. I do badly want to start publishing this full narrative story but made the promise to myself I will only publish parts to one story at a time.
I'n my earlier days I had at least like five stories open and would always neglect them and I don't want that to happen again. So I'll promise to continue Willa and Jasper's story, no matter how many more parts that may be 👀
