Jubilance

Chapter 11

"Come on, Jules," said Molli. "You can do it. Pull through. You're one of the strongest ladies I know."

Juliette wanted to respond to her dear friend. Thanks Molli. I want to. I know you are one of my biggest supporters. Thank you.

"I miss you already," said Molli. "It's hard not knowing if you're even hearing me, you know? But I'm sure it's even harder for you, if you're hearing everything but can't respond. And I'm really sorry if that's the case. But if it is, I'm really glad you can at least hear me and know what I'm saying to you."

Yes I can hear you. I can't respond. I really don't know why. I just can't. I'm glad you at least understand though, thought Jules.

Molli stared to sob. "The thing is, though, if I don't get you back, I have no idea what I'm going to do. I mean, you're like a sister to me. You're my best friend. I need you in my life, but I don't know for sure if you'll stay in my life or not. It's the not knowing that scares me the most out of anything."

I know, agreed Jules, I wish I knew, too. And you're my best friend, too. You'll always be like a sister to me.

"I understand," said Molli as her crying intensified, "if you don't want to stay, though. Life with God in Heaven would be so much better than life here on Earth."

I couldn't leave you- Juliette thought as Molli's talking interrupted.

"The selfish part of me wants you to stay, but I know that may not be what's best for you. Especially if you won't come back as you anyways," cried Molli.

Molli- Jules wanted to hug her and comfort her, it's okay. I'll always be me.

"If you can never do what you could again," said Molli, "you might as well be up in Heaven celebrating life in Jesus with the others who love Christ." Molli was quiet for a bit. "I guess what I'm trying to say is, I'm missing you already, but I understand if you don't stay. Don't hang on for me if it's not worth it...that's all." Molli left the room.

Juliette had a lot to chew on.
