Jess/ica Chapter 6 of 11 [Inside Scoop: Picture of Jess Dewey]
Jess is so stupid, isn't he? How could he forget that he just confessed to Jessica last night? That it was their first kiss? It's his fault, he's the reason why Jessica had a heart attack again. Then she woke up...they made up...but another girl hits the scene, trying to separate them again.
"Jessica? Are you alright?" I heard his voice again. When will he stop bugging me?
I woke up inside a hospital ward. The room was all white and I’m wearing white scrubs too. The beddings were white, so as the curtains and the bedside table. The only different colored thing was a vase of red roses with a sticky note saying ‘Smile! :)’ I smiled.
For a second, I forgot everything that happened in the morning after breakfast, but when I looked at the white calendar on my bedside table, I’ve been here for a week already! The door creaked open and there’s the reason why I am here- Jess.
"I’m sorry about what happened. I didn’t mean to forget about that night. I really forgot-" Now, I cut him off.
"This was what happened." I leaned forward to him and there it was, our lips were locked together again.
"I was drunk and I kissed you? How upsetting!"
"I know, but it was good enough." We both laugh out our mistakes.
"I’m sorry-"
"You’re forgiven. With that note? You’ve done more than enough to make me smile."
It was already 5:00 in the afternoon when I was ready to be discharged. The doctor said that it was good though, that my brain wasn’t permanently damaged by the impact or else there’s a great possibility I’ll experience amnesia. Forgetting about the one that makes me happy would be the most miserable that would happen in my life.
Mr. Dawn drove us to the house, yet there was an unfamiliar car parked in front of the gate. A long black Limousine. It was Loise who entertained the uninvited visitor. A lady went out from the doors of the car.
"No way. Victoria! You’re back!" Loise yelled in delight. She hugged her like it has been a long time since they’ve met.
That time Jess and I went out from the car to welcome the visitor. To my surprise, it’s Vicky, my best friend when I was in 8th grade!
"Oh my god, Vicky!" I shouted and rushed towards her.
"Is that you Jessica? It’s been 6 years since we’ve met!" She replied in the same manner. I gave her the tightest hug I could give.
"You’ve grown Vicky, you’re a lady now!"
"Hey, guess what? Belated Happy Birthday! You thought I would forget?"
"Aww, c’mon let’s go inside!"
She was the same old Vicky I’ve met in grade school. The only thing that changed was her height and her hair. She’s still sweet and understanding. I remembered when she bought a cupcake and a candle for my 9th birthday. When mom and dad were working in California and nobody remembered it was my birthday, she was there. I couldn’t believe we would meet here.
"Hey, guess what? I have a boyfriend!" I whispered to her ear. She was thrilled upon hearing the news.
"Do you remember when we IM-ed? The one that I told you I’m engaged?" She opened a new topic.
"Yes, am I going to meet him?" I asked her, the way she was thrilled.
"Yes! But tell me who your boyfriend is first."
"No, you first!" I made a deal with her.
"Okay, it’s…" The door squeaked open and it was Jess bringing a pitcher of juice for us.
"Hi, Babe!" She was addressing it to him, I’m sure.
"Now, who’s yours?"
Her question lingered in my mind…
