This Romantic Novel [√]

Chapter 1: The Romance Novel

Where two old childhood friends meet under the full moon.

Problems and pain that kept them from moving forward would soon be released.

As one wants to find love while the other thinks that love is a nuisance,

Will it change the other person's mind, or is it another waste of time?

But more of a reason to waste it all on me?

"What the hell am I saying?" I scribbled in my book, questioning myself on my ability to write.

"Having trouble with the story, my little friend?" I hear my best friend ask while placing an iced coffee on the wooden table.

Eying the cold beverage, I soon snickered.

"Are you my best friend? You should know that I hate coffee," I pout, glaring at it.

I heard my best friend chuckle before he sat on one of the unoccupied chairs in front of me.

"What are you talking about? This is mine," He informed before taking a sip through the paper straw. "Anyway, what's troubling you?".

It took me a few moments to answer, as I was too busy staring at the passage that I had written.

"I don't know what to write about," I confessed, "I already finished my recent book yesterday, but now he wants me to write another story - a romance novel as such."

I rested my head on my hand for support as I whined.

"Oh, I thought you were going to go on vacation, Jade?" questioned James with a puzzling expression.

"Well, that's what I thought, but no~ that didn't go as planned." I paused as I changed my position, "Writing a mystery novel- sure, I can do that. Writing a fantasy novel- sure, I love too. But writing a full-on romance novel is so hard, James,"

Meanwhile, my best friend just sits there, sipping his iced coffee, as I see him nod once in a while with his eyes not leaving me for a second.

"I mean, I understand . . . I write some romance scenes in my novels, but I can only write clips . . . CLIPS! . . . Not a whole story about," I sighed.
