Chapter 3.3

Jessa’s POV

I try to open my eyes as I feel a very sharp and excruciating pain in my head.

The beeping sound of machines and the smells surrounding me makes me realize immediately where I am.

I feel my throat is very dry so I try to sit up for some water but something moist touches my lips before I can even try to sit.

I greedily gulp the cool liquid down my throat, quenching my thirst .

I try to open my eyes again and this time, it is successful.

I immediately met with my grandma’s worried face and Thea’s sympathetic look.

’Hey, how did I end up here? I do not recall ever coming to the hospital or ever getting sick’ I ask them, confused.

However, my confusion is cleared before any explanation can even be given to me as all the events of the dreadful day play vividly in my head.

’Oh forgive my forgetfulness. There is no need for you to explain anything.

I have got everything now.’ I tell them as I start to laugh, making them look at me as if I have grown a thousand more heads.

Thea POV

I know Jessa is really hurt by what my brother did to her but she is at the same time trying to put up a brave front before her grandma and me.

her laughter does not last even long as they immediately turn into painful sobs.

’Hey, it is ok.’ I say as I pull her into me for a comforting hug, telling her indirectly that I will always be here for her, that she can always lean on me.

’How could I be so blind? All along, they had been playing me and I was so blinded by the love I have for Randel to see’ she says as she chokes on her sobs.

‘I knew that girl had no good intentions. I had my doubts about her but you would always say I was just jealous of the fact that someone new was joining are circle, however, I want you to keep this in mind, whatever happened was never your fault.

They are the ones who hurt you so they are the only ones who have to feel sorry.’ I tell her and give her another hug as she cries all her pains out on my shoulder.

I just rub her back and whisper soothing words into her ears.

Jessa’s grandma on the other hand just looks silently with a troubled face as her granddaughter cries her worries away.

Jessa finally calms down a bit and I help her brush her teeth, making sure she eats the breakfast I prepared for her.

Staring at her, I make a silent vow to myself to always stand by her side, I promise to always be her solace.

Even though we are best friends and I see her as my mate, she has always regarded me as an elder sister ever since she came to know about our age difference of two years.

She is very amazing and a selfless person, who will not hesitate to put others’ needs before hers.

Yesterday, I made it known to my brother that I have no more ties with him and my furious parents also left without saying a word to him and his slut of a wife.

After spending some more time with Jessa and her grandma, I tell them I need to go home.

Even though My husband, Brian knows that I am with them, he will not be able to manage everything alone at home and I am sure he will be worried since my phone has been off all night.

Jessa’s grandma tells me not to worry for she can take care of her grandchild.

I tell them I would come later to bring them food. Hospital foods are not really the best.

Jessa’s POV

After crying and Knowing crying will not solve anything and also realizing I still have people who cares for me genuinely, I feel more at rest and more determined to move on.

My main motive now is to become successful and have my revenge on Randel and his bitch of a wife.

~

After two tiresome and unbearable weeks in the medical prison labeled as hospital, I get discharged.

When we get home, I inform my grandma about my plan to move to a new place, a whole new continent to have a fresh start.

I figured I can’t stay in this country if I want to really move on from my first heartbreak.

I have to get some space from the people who hurt me, the people I am trying to move on from.

My grandmother immediately understands my point and agree for us to move.

I decide I would tell Thea later tonight when she comes to visit me, since she could not come to pick me up from the hospital.

We have also agreed to have a sleepover today to reminisce on our teenage days.

Thea is the one who suggested the idea of a sleepover.

I know she is doing all that to get my mind off things and I really appreciate her efforts.

I do not hold any grudge in my heart against Thea for what her brother did.

I am a full supporter of the idea that no one carries the burden of the sins of others.

Randel hurt me and it is Randel I have a problem with.

Later that night

Jessa’s POV

We are currently in my living room, arguing about Thea’s decision to relocate together with me to wherever I choose to go.

’For Christ’s sake Thea, do not make this any more difficult for me.

You are a married woman and that means you cannot take this decision alone.’ I try to reason with her as she fetches her phone from her bag and dials a number.

’Hello honey, could you come to Jessa’s place?’

’Yeah, sure, we are waiting’ She says to the person whom I know is no other than Brian and hangs up the call.

Brian arrives very soon after the call and also agrees to what Thea had suggested so that leaves me helpless.

There is nothing I can do but to accept.

We all decide to move to the United Kingdom.

Since we both own our own houses, we decide to sell the houses and use the money we gain from it to purchase a new mansion at where we are going to relocate to.

As for Brian’s job issues, It is not a problem as he is the C.E.O of his own company, B.Y Corp. and thankfully, he has a branch in the UK.

Two weeks after we have made the decision to move, we sell the houses and the money we get is enough to buy a mansion huge enough to accommodate all of us.

We stay in a hotel for an additional one week as Brian makes arrangements for preparing the mansion.

Mode of transportation and plane tickets are not a problem since we decide to use Brian’s private jet.

’Goodbye Miami’ I whisper to myself as I stare at the place where I have had all my happy moments and fair share of problems too, the place that had been my home.

I am leaving the place to move on from some people but I am never going to leave the memories.

I just need a fresh start but I sure as hell will keep the memories locked up deep within me and I will unleash them when the time to satiate my burning desire for revenge is up.
