What if I'm Jealous?

Josephine POV

"yes..." I replied before I went closer to him.

"Okay I'll be going, I'll be right back" I said to Jacob before I left.

I turned back, I noticed the way he was still standing on the same spot as he clenched his fist, I took a deep breath, before I continued my steady strides.

"Why are you talking to him so closely, you know that all these marriage stuffs is just a mirage, and very soon you will be out of it, so we can be together" he said clearly agitated.

"Calm down please" I tried to make him calm down, but he was finding it hard to do so.

"Why should I calm down?" He asked rhetorically.

I somewhat felt guilty, when the lingering thought of how I noticed the gaze of Jacob, it was full of hurt, I know he's trying to reconcile for that reason I'll give him the opportunity to do that.

I stared at him for one last time, before I held Aiden's hand, he was looking at me, clearly indicating he was waiting for an explanation.

" Can we go to our favourite spot.." I suggested we started walking to the car before we drove to a beach.

We then sat on the hot sand, while our gaze was fascinated by the beauty of nature as the unending waves kept on flowing like an unending river, giving the unknown tranquility that calms ones being.

" I want to tell you what we have agreed to do with my current husband" I started, while trying to keep calm.

" What have you agreed?"

"Jacob is actually my Best friend back in high school, not until everything changed when we have some issues, and now he wanted to reconcile..." I pursed for a while before I continued, "that after six months we would get a divorce " I said gently.

"Then what about our promise to be together, I know your father is against the issue of us getting married and living happily, but please don't do this to me, I won't be able to survive it" he said, as hot tears streamed down his cheeks, I felt so hurt that I'll have to do this, but I just can't help it,that I'll be leaving him for now.

"But it's just the matter of six months and no more than that" I said, he took a deep breath before he held my hand making me look at him directly in the eyes.

" I know it's just the matter of six months , but did you know what would happen in the span of six months?" He asked, making me took a deep breath before I managed to calm my raging nerves.

He was actually right I don't know what would happened within that time, but I was sure enough that I'll try to always stand by him.

He then cupped my cheeks using his right hand, I brought my cheeks closer, while feeling his soft hands, I plastered a smile on my cheeks while looking intently at him.

" Okey promise me that you won't fall for him and your heart would always belong to me" he said to me.

"I..."

" Why would she do that?" I heard the voice of Jacob that resonated, while cutting in between my words.

I immediately jolted in fear, before I stood up and went close to him, my brows was furrowed wondering why he was here.

"What are you doing here?" I asked awkwardly.

"I just came to pick you up" he said unperturbed about the situation. I took a deep breath, Before I went close to him and I took him to the other side.

" I know how you feel at this moment, but can you at least give up this moment to get to talk..."I pursed, "please let me just talk to him this once then after that I won't talk to him again" I tried to make him understand. I noticed the way he creased his brows as he pinched his nose, then he nodded as he went Inside the car.

I walked back to him, he was looking at me with utter bewilderment," is your husband that possessive?" Aiden asked.

"No he's not being possessive, I think he might have gotten over me right now, is just that he's parents are actually pestering him to get a wife, that's why he had to marry me, and after that we would get a divorce..." I pursed, " please believe in me, just this once, then after six months we would be together " I tried to make him see reasons, I saw it in his eyes, it was evident enough that he was about to succumb.

He took one last breath before he gave me one last hug, " I'll really miss you.. please don't forget the love that we shared, always try to remember me Okey " he said, because he break from the hug and he stared at me, then he kissed my lips so gently, it was not rough, but it was full of emotions, I found myself diving deeper to the kiss, I just want to continue feeling homy so closely.

After the kiss, I stared at him for one last time, before I left and I entered the car, I was trying so hard to stop the tears from trailing down my cheeks, but it was so hard.

I noticed Jacob was quiet, he didn't say a word, it was more like he contemplating about something which I can't really decipher.

" What's the problem?" I asked, he didn't gave me an answer, he rather he kept silent as we drove home without saying a word.

" You are being weirdly silent, is there anything that I might have done wrong?" I asked him, but there was no reply from him, he just kept silent without saying a word, as he came closer to me, then he took a deep breath, before he whispered the least unexpected set of words.
