Chapter 1
JJ happily greeted Brett when she saw him entering their house.
Brett greeted her as if she was someone he doesn’t plan to speak with.
JJ smirked. His indifference didn’t stop her from throwing herself at him. She cling her arms on his arms as she whispered in his ear.
Brett obviously forced a smile and gently removes her hands wrapping around his.
He cleared his throat and suddenly asked,
Brett Thorpe
“𝐀𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐦! 𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞’𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐛𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫?”
JJ Dean
“𝐇𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐦.”
Before JJ could protest, he immediately run upstairs as if a demon is chasing him.
JJ stomped her feet in frustration. She went directly to the kitchen and pesters her mom instead.
As soon as her mom noticed her, she shook her head.
Shiela Dean - JJ's Mom
“𝐉𝐉, 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐨𝐧 𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐲, 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐩 𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐨 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐲. 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐰𝐤𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮'𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠. 𝐀𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐮𝐠𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐥𝐲 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐨𝐨𝐧 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐨 𝐣𝐚𝐢𝐥. 𝐃𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐬𝐞𝐱𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐰𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧? 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐚 𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐭!”
JJ hugs her mom and rested her chin on her shoulder.
JJ Dean
“𝐈𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐦𝐨𝐦? 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐈’𝐯𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐭 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐈 𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐝 𝐦𝐲 𝐞𝐲𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐡𝐢𝐦. 𝐇𝐞 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝𝐧’𝐭 𝐛𝐞 𝐛𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐲 𝐢𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞.”
Shiela Dean - JJ's Mom
“𝐇𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐲, 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐟𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐞𝐲𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐡𝐢𝐦.”
JJ agreed with her mom for once. She smiled as she remember their first encounter and then she says,
JJ Dean
“𝐘𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐦𝐨𝐦. 𝐈 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐡𝐢𝐦 𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧. 𝐇𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐦𝐲 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞.”
Her mom shouted in disbelief.
Shiela Dean - JJ's Mom
“𝐉𝐉! 𝐘𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝟏𝟕!”
JJ Dean
𝐒𝐨 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭? 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐬 𝐧𝐨 𝐚𝐠𝐞, 𝐧𝐨 𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐭; 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐧𝐨 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡.
JJ laughed as her mom raises her hands telling her that she’s done with her.
A loud thud caught both of their attention. They turned around and saw Joaquin, JJ's father, standing not far from them.
There is this stupefied reaction on his face.
Before they could react, her dad runs toward her and hugs her senseless.
Joaquin Dean - JJ's Dad
“𝐍𝐨, 𝐦𝐲 𝐛𝐚𝐛𝐲 𝐉𝐉, 𝐈 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰 𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐠𝐮𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮. 𝐎𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐦𝐲 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐲.”
JJ Dean
“𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐨𝐧 𝐝𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐲! 𝐋𝐞𝐭 𝐦𝐞 𝐠𝐨. 𝐈 𝐜𝐚𝐧’𝐭 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞.”
JJ pleaded. She tried to get away from her father's tight grasp.
She then looks at her father who was teary-eyed. He looks like a puppy.
JJ Dean
“𝐃𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐲, 𝐈 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐨 𝐦𝐮𝐜𝐡.”
She finally was able to greet her father whom they haven’t seen in 2 months.
Joaquin Dean - JJ's Dad
“𝐎𝐡, 𝐈 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐨𝐨 𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐲.”
