>>JenaAs the days passed by, I felt like I was falling apart. I had come to like Ulrich more than I thought I had, but the thought of leaving my sister behind is impossible. I can’t go without her. And that thought was constantly tearing me apart.Every time I thought about leaving, my heart ached with a deep sense of loss, and sadness was all I could feel. I felt so torn, because on one hand, I had the person I fell in love with, and knowing it’s something special is keeping me from turning away from him. I know deep down that someone like Ulrich will not come into my life again but on the other hand, I had my sister, the person who has always been there for me through thick and thin. I practically raised her.I tried to act like everything was okay, but I was a mess i
>>UlrichA solution? I sat in the lounge of the penthouse staring at my phone screen after my call with Jena ended. There won’t be a solution for this. We can’t take Jenny with us since she’s a human and Jena won’t leave without her…I stared at the pendant in my hand. Well, I could at least start by giving her this. She said she wanted me to meet her sister, so not all hope is lost, right? I’m being introduced to her family after all…I looked out the window. The place was dark but the view from the lounge was pretty. The city was burning bright with all its light and it glowed.Tomorrow is the seventh day and the last one Dad gave me. That means if I&rs
>>PortiaJena waited for Ulrich as soon as the party started. Since it was a picnic party, we were having it in the morning. I watched her as she anxiously paced around the place. Time kept passing by but he didn’t make it and neither did Egon.After getting tired, she looked at me, “Egon was supposed to be here today, right?”I nodded, “He did say he would come,” I wonder what’s taking them this long? “He and Ulrich were coming together,” I took out my phone from my purse and noticed I had missed calls.OH?Shoot!?!?I think I left my phone on si
>>PortiaI stand alone in a white barren space, watching as Egon walked away from me. The distance between us kept growing and I’m shaking in fear. Yet, I can’t seem to move forward, I can’t even take a step toward him.I try, but I don’t move, and I slowly see him fade into the distance.***I woke up with a gasp in the middle of the night and looked around my room in horror. Sweat dripped down my neck and I noticed I had my hand out reaching for something in front of me. I looked at it with my eyes still wide open and then clenched my fists.I sighed and brought my hand down in misery. After taking a few deep breaths I reache
>>Egon “I see,” We sat in the palace courtyard and she told me why she chose to stay behind, “I get it.” I smiled at her softly, then moved my hand to her cheek, “But none of it would have mattered to me.” I told her, “I still love you, just the way you are.” She had just shared her deepest insecurities with me and I may not be good with stuff but I want her to know I will always love her the same no matter what. She shyly smiled back at me and leaned her face into my hand, “I know,” Her cheeks turned a cute shade of pink, “I know you’d never do anything that would hurt me but I didn’t want anyone to point fingers at you.” “No one would ever dare to do that,” He replied, “You’re my mate.” I placed my other hand on her back and pulled her closer, “You would never be an embarrassment to me, never.” I hugged her. “I know,” She replied, “But I want to do this.” I felt her hands cling to the back of my shirt as she hugged me back, “And I don’t ever want to feel like I’m lacking.” “You’
** I was originally going to write a separate book because the POV changes to Jenny, Jena's sister, but now I'm continuing it here** >>Jenny “Congratulations!” The female homeroom teacher, Miss Lee, complimented me, “You got first place in the Literary competition.” She handed me the certificate in front of the class as both of us stood by the front desk, “Everyone,” She looked at the students, “A round of applause,” She had to ‘softly glare’ at the students, “Please,” And after she requested it, the kids clapped for me and I took the piece of paper from her. I gave her a slight bow, the kids stopped clapping and I went back to my seat. “You should all learn from Jenny,” Miss Lee said, “You’re all third-year students, you should all study better. You’ll be graduating even before you know it.” “Yes…” The students gave a boring answer back and no one paid me much attention. I quietly went and sat down on my seat. “The teachers are having a meeting, so today we’ll have a self-stud
>>JennyBruised neck, bruised under-eye, a tissue up my nostrils, and bandages on different parts of my body. I sat in my seat in my class with a frown on my face.What even happened?How did it happen? To be attacked by random strangers you’ve never even seen before, my eyebrow twitched, and on what basis? That I tried to seduce her boyfriend?My eyebrow twitched again.What bullshit!!!That doesn’t make any sense, not with that lousy photoshopped picture. I know the guys I hang out with and neither of them is named Daniel or look remotely like that ugly log in that picture. But I don’t have any e
>>Jenny“Yes,” I gathered my strength and stood up, “We were just fooling around,” I brought my hand down from my neck as the annoyance in my heart continued, a sense of injustice crept into my mind, and I kept wondering why I had to put up with this behavior.“Really?” Mister Koen asked againI didn’t look at him directly, “Yes,” My eyes were wandering off like my mind.I hope this is the last time and now they’ll stop bothering me. Mock tests are coming and I have a lot to study. I pursed my lips in anger. This better be the last time.“I see,” He nodded, “Go back to your
