Courage for Goals

*Chapter 10*- The Confession

He couldn't hold it anymore. He had to confess his immense love for Jenni. He had to much in his mind and heart that he just had to let something go. They were waiting for their parents to come. Julio called her and she came fast. 

She stared at him with a brightness and her eyes change color, he has never seen her eyes do this.

"Hi Jennifer" said Julio.

"What's up Julio" said Jenni excited.

" I wanted to tell you something since a long time ago, But never had the guts to tell you. Since third grade I had crush on you but I never got the chance to tell you, since we got separated".

She looked at him with confusion with a little grin. He couldn't tell if she was happy or mad.

"Well, I'm sorry to disappoint you Julio but I don't like you" said Jennifer. Julio felt the tears falling, the tears that should've have fallen four years ago, but no...

"Okay, well either way Jennifer thank you for being honest with me and telling me truth the first time I asked" Julio said. He left because his dad had come. He got into his truck with his head down and sad but relieved he had gotten all that he had on his mind out. He had one thought in his head and he knew it was truth: "Sometimes "later" means "too late". And he took to long.

Julio went through his day fine and happy. But felt that Jennifer was avoiding him.

The next day while Julio waited for his dad to come, Jennifer called him. With a surprised face follows he. She starts.

"Julio... about yesterday I actually do like you too. I said that I didn't like you because..." That's all I got out her when her eyes focus on my lips, on my eyes, and finally her lips meet mine. he grabbed her face gently and kissed her. She put her right hand in his shoulder and stopped kissing and said..

"I love you"

" I love you to, Jennifer" Julio said stopping too and going back on what they were in.

Life passed by fast and slow and even faster than seconds. Jenni and Julio had gone through middle school,high school,and college. Their love truly had gotten through a lot. Through lies, fake friends, and problems. They loved each other.

But one day Jennifer's parents had died in a car crash while going to the house of Jennifer and Julio in Florida. The police had doubts that it was an "accident" that the car had crash. They thought it was caused by someone purposely. But the police didn't do anything about the case because their was a woman in it. They believed that womans had no rights. Jennifer couldn't believe what she was witnessing.

She entered a police program that helped he a lot to start her career of a police woman to get the same rights for woman. She believed that woman didn't have to get less rights than man. She believed that womans could be as good as men or even better.

It took a lot of time and hard work for Jennifer but finally achieved he goal. With Julio by her side and never leaving her on her hardest times of the of her new career. He did the same thing when he wanted to give her support.

He pulled her towards him. Telling me "they'll be proud of you". Meaning her parents. Seeing his strong arms around her, so strong, full of life. Made her feel... plentiful.

She amazed all of the police men because she was the only police girl. She had advanced a lot of positions. She kept on improving by going all the way to the FBI. The FBI realized that sh was a very valuable and strong woman who fought for what she wanted. She knew what she had to do a lot more for the rights of womans. The memory of her parents death gives her strength. She knew that it had hit her hard. She lost those that she loved. It seems that life has taken those who were most alive.

She fought for womans rights because her mom had not gotten the same rights as her dad. The police had given her dad more rights to him then to her mom. She felt disgusted,frustrated,and most importantly hurt. A wave of pure unfairness raised inside her. Every time she remembered. She was assigned an important case. About women that had been killed by a car crash (just like her mom). 

She knew she had to fight for this women. Because she didn't want the same thing  to happen to her like it did to her mom. Jennifer knew what she had to do. She examined the body and looked at her face. She looked almost like her mom. In fact, she was believing that it was her mom. She knew it wasn't it though...she was dead. 

An agent of where she worked gave the woman CPR and got her to start breathing again, luckily. After that she looked up her mom's case all over again. She had seen that the police that were in charge of the case hadn't found a body. She started to have thoughts.
