JENNIE
I don't know if it would be the right thing to do but I think we should talk , right?
I want to answer her questions but damn I'm nervous , should I tell her about him?
But what if she won't believe me?
"Jen?" I flinched a bit but managed to look back and there she was , I was sitting on the sand actually , facing the vast sea
"Hi" I greeted but she just gave me a small smile
That was a rough start, well...
"Can I seat beside you?" I raised my eyebrow while she furrowed hers
"Well if you want you could seat
a meter apart" she chuckled"I just asked tho but.." she plopped herself beside me and look at where I'm looking earlier
I watch her, her side view's always beautiful , shes beautiful
"So ... What's it to me?" she wasn't looking at me and I'm a bit thankful of it a little
"You can ....uhmm ask me things" she looked at me as if scanning my face , I sigh
"Okay?" She looked away and throw some stones while I can't help to watch
I could waste my time just watching her but I know things were different now
"The sun's about to set " she added
I froze when she looked at me , it's as if I was caught red handed
"What? " She asked as she chuckled
The small smile earlier doesn't make sense , I thought she's mad
"Nothing , I was just looking at your side view , It's so .."
"Beautifully handsome?" She was looking at me
I nod , and she smiled but it didn't reach her eyes, she averted her gaze to the sea once again
"You always say that ...... used to say that" Was just me or her voice sounds pained
Of course she's hurt , of the memory , of you
I looked in front me , I watch as the sea sends it's wave just below our feet's
"Lisa" I called but I wasn't looking at her , I felt her gaze towards me but I stilled in my position , when I didn't speak she removed her gaze off me
You can do it Jen
It was silent between us two , the only sound we can hear was the sound of the waves and the birds flying to their homes
I know the more silent we get would not lead us to anything
I was about to speak again but she beat me to it
"What happened Jen? Why'd you left?Where'd you go? Who's he? Is she your husband?" She was looking at me as she bombard me with those
I tried to open my mouth to speak but somehow I can't muster a word
Her face was serious yet her eyes screams pain, betrayal , and something I can't decipher , was it longing?
"No uhmm just answer the first.... 3 questions" she looked away
I heaved a deep sigh
"I'm sure you read the letter , rig-"
"I did " I sigh again
"But why ? Why'd you have t-to.... go ? You ... " she sighed , I recognize that voice she's about to cry , but what is it that she's about to say
"Lis-"
