Chapter 19: just another day

Her three days of happiness were gone and hidden in the past and buried deep down in her heart. The bubble of living in love and happiness was burst and Jessica hates knowing that it was her fault.

It was the right thing to do, she thinks to herself. There's a knock on the door. It's Linda.

"Hey, where were you today?"

"I.. I needed time to think."

"About what? Wait, you're not talking about Grant are you?"

When Jessica didn't answer, Linda took that as her answer.

"I thought you two were, you know, not seeing one another anymore."

Jessica bites her inner lips and let's Linda in. She leads her to her bedroom where she closes the door and explains the events of the previous night when she got home.

"...I can't help but feel like I made the wrong decision. He made me feel so good and the right kind of good not the toxic kind. It was as though I was on a constant high this weekend and now I'm starting to feel withdrawal from not seeing him. Oh fuck it, maybe it is toxic and I'm biased. What do you think i should do Linda?"

Her friend thought about it for a moment. "You do what you feel you should do. I can tell you what you should do but that wouldn't be right of me because I'm not living your life. But what I will say is this, you don't want to feel this way now and years later regret not telling him how you feel."
