"Why, Joel?" she straddled on his lap and kissed his glabella. She didn't like the frown between his eyes. "Why? Why did you go that far for a girl you f*cked at the pub one night?" "A girl I f*cked?" he let out a snort. He didn't like that phrase. For him, she never was just a girl he f*cked. Maybe for her, he was just a guy she f*cked? Whatever! It is understandable if she thought that way if she didn't remember what happened. He didn't think that sleeping with her that night was very…-

Holding her hand, Jeremy knelt in front of her, making her stunned for a moment. "What are you doing?" she asked but he scrolled down his phone. The light from the phone revealed the smile on his face. Jerlina covered her face with her free hand as a piece of soft music started to play on his phone. Is he recreating the famous serenading scene from 'Say Anything' by replacing the boombox with his phone? Well, I'm down for that! What song is he going to play? She couldn't stop giggling and…

Jerlina was impressed that Jeremy knew each of those kids and he had their parents' number too. She tried to stop him, but he called the parents of each one of them before confiscating their keys. The parents arrived to pick up their kids and after lecturing them, Jeremy handed over the keys. One couple seemed to have lied to their parents that they are going to the library to study. Another seemed to have been honest with them, but they didn't say they were going to the bridge. And the last one- the…

Geraldine Bridge - The beautiful bridge that is built across a stream in the outskirts of Peyton. When she was in high school, the cool kids who are dating the popular kids and those who own a car will brag if they come here for "dates". Since it was used to be a spot for drug dealers before, there were curfews in place to go to that bridge. Sneaking to the bridge with their dates has been like a rite of passage to adulthood back then. It seems like it still is. She could see a couple of…

Jeremy didn't know what he thought, but he held her hand as soon as she turned. He didn't like to see her leave. My dear Jerlina, just don't leave me alone. I can't wait to hear you say those three words to me. So, say those words to me first. My heart's pounding and my chest hurt. I want to say how much I love you but I can't find the words. I can't find my voice either. I fear I'd die of the love I am feeling for you. So please, fall for me soon. Say "I love you" to me and relieve me of my…

"Emma... I don't know if she'd actively sabotage your company," Jerlina actually didn't think Emma would go against Jeremy hard at first. Emma still needs Jeremy to pay for her after all.

Emma will hurt Jeremy where it only hurts him – she'll hurt his heart. Unfortunately for Jerlina and fortunately for Emma, the one Emma hates and the one Jeremy loves is the…

Jerlina with a sigh bowed her head. Well, I tried! Was she happy he refused to help? No. But she understood him. She wanted to give it a try as she promised and she did. But she had a suggestion and she would have been happy if he listened to it. But... well, I can try later. "Jerlina," he stopped at the door. He didn't feel good for using that tone on her. He was not going to change his mind, but he can explain it to her. He was harsh with her, but it is for her own good. And if she…

"Are you sure about this? You're not mad? Charlie doesn't think this is a good idea... he thinks I might provoke the Tigers' gang leader by hiring a member of his group," Jerlina asked Jeremy. She was currently in Jeremy's office after leaving the clinic. She was happy she found an amazing artist to design for her glassware company, but the problem is he belongs to another gang and there might be trouble attached to him. "Do you think he would be helpful for you?" Jeremy asked. "Yes! When I first…

Jeremy had very little hope, but he decided to wait. Waiting for her comes easy for him. He waited for some time and her door was still open. And as he watched, she came out of her room, still with her pout on. Is she still feeling bad? "Tell me more stories from your childhood, Jerlina!" he tried to use his normal voice, but his excitement to see her walking towards him got revealed by his excited voice. "Really?" he saw her eyes widening with relief. "Yes, tell me more about your…

Jerlina looked at the man lying on her lap, playing with her fingers. She prepared dinner that night since he seemed so out of it. After dinner, he asked her to join him to watch television and he didn't seem to be watching that comedy sitcom either. "You can talk to me about Emma if you want, you know..." she said caressing his hair. "Good memories, bad memories... I'll listen..." She won't mind much, and it would help him if he talks about Emma. Jerlina also wanted to know what Jeremy actually…
