I Choose You by Kemi Adejumo (classic novels for teens txt) 📗

“Jessica, you ruined a dying girl’s happiness all because of your selfishness. You watched me get insulted and accused. I found solace in you not knowing that I was just an idiot.  You must have laughed behind my back right?” He laughed mockingly 

“No Christian, I didn’t mean for any of this to happen. I swear, I didn’t want to loose you that’s why” I continued begging. 

“Jessica, I know we always planned to break Christian and his ex girlfriends but that is  because we both knew that they were cheating on him. As a friend, I understand your love for Christian but when did you stop telling me things Jess?” Molly asked 

“You went too far” Luke added

“I am so sorry “ I cried “ I love you so much Christian “ And for the very first time, I confessed to him. This was never how imagined it to happen. 

“And you think I didn’t love you too?!!!” Christian shouted with rage as tears fell out of his eyes. My eyes widened in shock  and my heart skipped a beat.  He loves me? 

“I loved you with every core of my being . All you had to do was say the word.  I was ready to do anything for you Jessica” He said with so much pain.

I stared at him speechless. I shouldn’t have let Mirabelle threaten me into this…. I should have just told him about my feelings. Who will believe me now if I say I was threatened. 

“Not anymore Jessica. This time around, I am going to meet the person that actually cares about me and you are not invited “ he said and walked away. 

“Christian please wait, this is not how it seems . Please hear me out “ I could only cry after him but shockingly, he stopped and turned around. 

He looked at me with a eye piercing gaze. 

“Five years ago, was that you too? You made us loose contact” He asked and I hung mg head low as I continued my shameful cries. 

“Who are you?”Christian asked in disbelieve. “You ruined it right from the beginning didn’t you? I was her last hope for happiness and you took it away. You knew how sad I was. You comforted me but you have always been the culprit. Tell me Jessica, how did you feel mocking me?” 

“I am so sorry, please “ this is only what I could say . 

“You know what Jessica? As from today , we seize to be friends “ Christian said with coldness in his voice. 

“No, never please don’t say that please Christian, you can’t do this to me please “ I cried as I wrapped my hands around him. He peeled my hands off of him as he walked out of the penthouse. And just like that ,he was gone. 

I fell to my knees as agony filled me. I kept crying with a heart drenched with the pain of love, friendship. I felt Molly kneel beside me and hug me but I could care less. My favorite person is gone because I was too coward to tell him about  my feelings. Because of the fear of rejection, I lost my heart. 

Soon I stood up from the cold ground and walked to my room. I closed the door behind me and I locked it . I don’t want anybody to see my shame. 

I walked to the bed and sat on it. In that minute, my eyes jammed the pregnancy Test stick on the coffee table. 

There it was with two lines on it. My eyes widened at what I saw….. No please no, I can’t be pregnant.
