The news was the biggest blow of my life. Jenna took a few days off to go with me to the funeral even though I told her it wasn't necessary. But she refused to leave me alone in those hard times.She did not stop pampering me and hugging me throughout the day. I was very grateful to her and was able to totally vent about her. That day we buried them under a terrible rain. The gray sky seemed to want to accompany me and mourn the death of my loved ones.Little by little, Jenna and I stayed, she didn't complain at any time and she waited for me to finish saying goodbye to leave. I was finally able to place a few roses on her graves and say my last goodbye.

"Are you better?" she asked, handing me a cup of coffee."A little...I can't believe they're gone," I replied, "I wish I'd spent more time with them." I... I... I miss them." Seeing me cry, she took me by the face and gave me a few kisses. She was broken with pain, she wanted to have known them better."I'm sure they're proud of you, my love." She gave me a hug.

I had to come home to put all my parents' things in boxes. Jenna was helping, silently, saying nothing and she didn't mind getting her hands dirty at all. Once that was finished, we took everything to the closets of a room that was hardly used except to store furniture and other things.I didn't want it to affect Jenna's work so I asked her to go back to normal life, that we couldn't stay stuck in the past. Now it was time to do all the steps that Jenna recommended to a friend of hers. The truth is that he was very nice and professional with the matter.

The worst thing was seeing the whole house empty, with no one there except me, who needed to stay for only a few days to clear my head. Jenna refused, but she had interviews and it was the first time we'd discussed anything. But I hugged her and told her that everything was fine, but she needed to be alone to sort my head, finish coping with the situation and move on.Jenna gave me a few kisses before leaving for work.

"If you need something, please call her," she told me, "yes?""Of course, thanks for all your love." She blushed a little at being called that.-I love you.-Me too.

We parted with a hug. Now I would just be there, picking up and organizing the house to be able to continue in life.The days that I was alone were very hard, but knowing that Jenna, with all her projects, her hard life and everything else about her, was by my side, gave me the courage to keep going. I kept a few photos of them, I wanted them to continue to be proud of me wherever they were.

—Come on Tn, it's time to get on with your life—I slapped myself on the face, I needed it.

Jenna came to pick me up after a few days and we hugged. But this time I didn't cry, I was convinced of my path. The first thing was to look for a job and keep my head busy. She told me that in the factories where she filmed they needed people in the warehouse. And headlong and thanks to her, I would go to work. As she believed, the first few days were hard, but she helped me keep my head on what I was playing.

"Thank you Jenna," I said, kissing her, "for supporting me in these moments and giving me a job."—It's nothing—she scratched her arm —hey she...-Yeah?"It's been a while since... well..." she lowered her head, "you know."I got a little red, I knew what she meant.—Come here—I took her by the waist and we kissed for a long time. Little by little we were letting ourselves be carried away by passion and lust.

I woke up after a few hours, naked and covered with a thin sheet. Jenna slept next to me with an angelic face. Take the opportunity to go take a good shower and remove the sweat.As the days passed, Jenna was busy interviewing her, revising scripts, and working on a few commercials while I was in the warehouse. Thanks to the fact that they knew the stars firsthand, they treated me like one of their own and I felt very comfortable.It took us a week and a half to be able to see each other due to both of our work. Many nights were just heavy for me, but thanks to technology and video calls, they were less lonely.

"Finally we can see each other," I said as we hugged."Yes, it was about time.

Despite the fame, she and I led a normal life. In the room, covered with the blanket to protect us from the cold, we ate popcorn while watching a movie. Jenna fell asleep halfway, she was exhausted because she had access to her calendar and Emma was telling me things. She really worked a lot and between that and cheering me up, she deserved a good rest.Now that I was with her in my house, she didn't feel so empty, but I missed my parents a lot because her loss was recent. He wished they were all there for dinner. A tear ran down my face as I thought of them.

"Yu..." she whispered in her sleep."I'm here," I replied in the same tone.

She hugged me as she settled on my shoulder.I had to carry her to bed in my arms, she was very light. I covered her with the sheets and then fell asleep next to her, enjoying her company.Now the sadness little by little disappeared from my heart. I was really very happy to be able to spend time with her. That night it took me a little longer to fall asleep, but I was sure things were going to change for the better.

Thanks to Emma, I found out that Jenna's birthday would be soon, so she had to prepare a big surprise party to give her all the love she deserved. I began to form in my head ideas that could be fun for a day like this. But little by little sleep overcame me, yawning, with my eyes closing slowly without almost noticing and finally I fell asleep.The next day, she was more animated and energetic as she made me breakfast with a big smile.

"Come on, we have to go to work," she said very happily.Yes, one more day at the office.

What she didn't know is that she had the perfect idea to surprise him.
