Stay as Jane

After a little while, you fall asleep with a big smile on your face. Steve stands up and takes a shower. Minutes later you stand up and join him in the shower. He seems distant, you try hugging him, he just smiles. 

Afterwards you walk out of the shower. While you are wrapping a towel around you, you tell him “I love you” you which he replies “me too”. But sounds a little bit fake. 

You go back to bed, and get dressed while he shaves himself. His phone vibrates. You pick it up and read the notification  “did you tell dumb blonde about us?”. You couldn’t believe it. You put on your heels on, throw the phone on the ground and step on it, “oops” you say. 

You call an uber and step out of his home. You have tears in your eyes, “this sucks” you tell yourself as you are being driven to your home. 

Your parents hug you and tell you he is not worth crying for. “Am i really dumb?” You ask yourself. You then say “not anymore”. 

As hard as it was, the next few days you spend less and less time partying, and more time studying. Everyone says you are a completely different woman. Steve tries to apologize, you tell him “i actually don’t care Steve”.

A couple of years later you finish college. You apply for your first job. Which you get with ease. You have turned your life around, and for better or for worse it was thanks to Steve.

You will eventually find love again. And while you can hop out of Jane, it’s been your little project correcting her course in life. You want to be her forever. Well you might hop out when you are an old woman, but for now, you will be her. 

THE END
