Two years ago, I broke 𝘩𝘦𝘳.

A year ago, 𝘴𝘩𝘦 broke 𝘶𝘴.

 

Ever since that day two years ago, I was a shadow of my own self. Everyone saw me as the funny jokester, the life of the party. No one knew the truth hiding behind thick walls of sarcasm and jokes. 

Not even my best friends.

I thought I could hide from reality if I didn’t say it out loud, but when I finally broke down confessing the darkest secret weighing me down, I could no longer escape the truth. 

I still cared for 𝘩𝘦𝘳. I still wanted 𝘩𝘦𝘳. 

Despite every fibre in my body hating 𝘩𝘦𝘳.

After all the pain, suffering and hurt we’ve put each other through, she remained my one true love.

But in our game of love, where she expected me to Buy-In by changing my behaviour and actions, there was no folding. 

If I was serious about her, I had to see it through.

Till the very end.

Otherwise, I would lose the greatest games of all.

Jessica was born and raised in Kentucky, but has been moving with the waves and is currently residing in southern Maine with her husband and cat, Nebula. 

Jessica's love of reading and writing began at a young age with the help of her grandmother and her local library, and she hasn't looked back since. Exhausting the stories at the library, she began to write her own. 

 Similarly, her love for pirates, mermaids, and all things fantasy have only grown more intense with time.
