XXXI. The other Jess
She didn’t say anything. After my knees got tired, I stood up. She was still crying. The fireworks stopped.
Jess’: Are those tears yes?
She looked at me.
Angel: I don’t know.
I got her hand, I placed the ring around her finger, the ring Jess choose. It won’t fit.
Angel: It’s okay.
She smiled at me.
Angel: Yes, I’ll marry you.
My whole life flashed back. The day I saw her… The day she said my name… The day my arms wrapped around her shoulders… The day she helped me recover… The day she asked me to leave her… The days I regretted leaving her…
Jess…
