THE ONLY J (Author's Reco)

Part 37 | The Woman I Am Still In Love With

JENNIE

My trip from New York to Nagoya to Takayama made me realize one thing.

How brave Lisa was.

I was searching for the port where the scrap shop yesterday. I actually went first to a wrong place, but then people there knows Lisa and they guided me to where she really is.

When I was introduced to Mr. Kinotaki, he immediately recognized me as Lisa's wife. Hmmmm.

I was shaking the moment he opened the door of the scrap shop. He was screaming letting Lisa know that I am here.

And the moment I saw her...
I told myself, I am never letting you go again.

You are still the woman I am in love with.
The only person who can pull my heartbeat out from silence.
My Lisa.

She has lost weight, but still looks hot.
She's even lovelier with her natural ash light brown medium length hair than the long one she had before.

Her eyes still melt my heart but breaks it the same time because all I can see is sadness.
Sadness that I put her through.

Let me bring back the happiness into you, my love.
I am sorry for everything.
I swear, give me a chance and I will let you experience the love that you deserve.
Let me make it up to you.

We had the most emotional night of our lives. Of course, because of what I did. I regret everything I did.

Lisa, I hope you'll forgive me and join me back to New York and start a new life with me again.

I kissed her. I couldn't stop myself. I missed her. I missed those plump lips that makes my body shiver whenever she kisses every skin in me.
She tastes the same. Same sweet taste. Same hot sensation.

When the morning came, I accompanied Lisa to her jobs.

I noticed she wore her thin slippers while we're preparing ourselves.

"Wear your shoes. It's too hot outside. Your feet might get burnt." I said.

She took the pair of shoes from her cabinet.

"I refuse to wear this sometimes, especially when I have a duty at the market. You know, it might get too dirty." She said. I noticed it is the Chuck Taylor sneakers I gave her during our last Christmas together. It has holes already but she still looks hot in it. And deep inside, how my heart crushed, seeing her in a not so good situation. Well, this is your fault Jennie. She had the best life in New York and you took that away from her.

"Don't worry I'll wash it later." I told her and fixed the shirt she's wearing. I see holes and ripped marks.

"Let's get you some shirt later." I said and bit my lip. I can't deny I still find her hot. What are you doing to me Lisa?

"Don't I look hot on this shirt? I used to wear ripped clothes and shoes back in high school and you were already drooling, right?" She asked teasing me.

"If you're looking hot on that shirt, why don't you still have a girlfriend here?" I asked.

"I chose not to have." She said raising her brows. Okay. I'm speechless.

We first went to the flour and corn store.
Lisa said, this is the first store who accepted her.

She prepared the sack of corn for delivery. Man, it looks heavy.

"Hi Akari. Good morning." She greeted the lady at the store and she smiled at Lisa.

"By the way, this is Jennie." The girl's eyes went big.
