Chapitre 93: Auntie...

"So, that's the situation." Jessica sat at the bar, her fingers cradling a glass of wine. She wasn't in her usual police uniform but in a casual shirt and jeans, still looking sharp and composed.

Scarlett sat next to her, staring at the video on her phone, her other hand covering her mouth, her eyes wide with disbelief.

"Honestly, I'm kinda jealous of you," Jessica confessed, taking a big sip of her wine before coughing lightly and setting the glass down. "Actually, not just kinda. Super jealous. To have a guy like that into you, and here I am, single as a pringle. Just thinking about it drives me crazy!"

Scarlett wasn't really listening to her best friend's complaints anymore. Her eyes were glued to the screen, watching the boy on the stage.

Watching him say, "I want to share her burden."

Tears started to well up in her eyes, and finally, she couldn't hold back her emotions any longer. Tears streamed down her face.
