Toxic Relationships

Longings

...Happy Reading's...

A man now focused his gaze, his eyes now looking intensely at a woman coming out of a simple house before him. Two hours he waited and finally came to fruition, a woman he was waiting for now came out wearing a pink hoodie and her casual black pants.

Jack, the man developed his smile. It had been a whole month he had not looked at this girl in front of him. His longing immediately churned violently, wanting to feel like he ran in front of the girl and expressed his longing all along. But it could not, he could not act rashly. There's been so much stupidity that he's done lately.

Clara Villegas, the girl now seen waiting for someone in front of the house, looked around. Sometimes the girl stared at the watch and also the cellphone she was holding. Without realizing it, a man now got out of his black sedan car and began to step closer to him.

“Challa.”

Clara, who heard her name called someone, now appears to be sculpting and raising her head from the view of her phone screen. A few meters from where he stood there was Jack who now looked at him with a sad look.

‘Challa’ calls that he has very rarely heard lately, especially from a man in front of him. Clara fell silent and squeezed her phone strongly, too confused to give what kind of response. Especially exactly a few days ago he clearly saw Mary who was in Jack's lap so affectionately.

“What's up with me?”

Hearing Clara's question seemed to make Jack's heart tremble. Blame him for coming here just to see her? They were now only staring deeply at each other for a few seconds, as if channeling their longing all this time through gazes.

“Sorry, I'm sorry for you Chal."

Hearing Jack's words, Clara simply smiled wryly. Even after he saw with his own eyes the affection of Jack and Mary but the man did not even intend to meet him and just explain anything. But now that he has decided to be on Chris' side, Jack is back to see him.

“I don't think there's anything we need to talk about anymore Jack, let those six years just be a memory.”

Clara said briefly and again stepped into the house, but before the girl went any further, Jack quickly pulled Clara's hand and clasped the girl's body tightly. Clara's words made her chest so tight, not what she expected. Clara who felt that embrace could only flinch.

“Lease! Let go of me Jack!”

With all her might Clara now tried to push Jack's body, trying hard to release Jack's hand that was tightly coiled on his waist. Jack remained unmoved, Clara's yelling and rejection as if it didn't make him shiver. She hugged Clara tightly, trying her best to calm Clara through her arms. He only wanted to be like this for a moment, feeling the warmth of Clara's body in his arms. He misses this hug very much.

“You jerk Jack! You're a jerk!”

Clara was still screaming and trying to let go of their embrace. In recent weeks Jack has always made his insomnia relapse due to the stress and over thinking he faced. Regarding the words of Jack who was going to marry Mary, the trash articles he received to the intimacy of Jack and Mary that he saw with his own eyes.

At first he brushed it off, Jack chose Mary out of disappointment because she was trying to hurt herself because of Dean. But when Mary who wrestled spoiled and sat on Jack's lap as if opening her eyes wide. As if Jack with Mary wasn't just messing around, the man was actually going to marry Mary. Especially when Jack is even so reluctant to just meet him or even raise his call.

“After I was patient with all your attitude and now you choose Mary as your partner, you jerk Jack!”

Punch after punch from Clara as if weakened, the girl now began to shed tears. His heart was so broken lately and there was no place to lean, especially almost every day his mother asked for the whereabouts of Jack who seemed to disappear into the earth, it made his heart more broken, it made his heart more broken, as he tried to dismiss the fact that Jack had chosen Mary as his companion, even in front of all the media.

“I know Chal, I know I'm a jerk. Sorry, I'm sorry.”

Hearing Jack's words was able to make Clara go silent for a moment. The punch and screams began to disappear, now he allowed Jack to hug him tightly. This is exactly what he needs, Jack's presence that he needs all along.

Jack's words now made him shut up instantly, for the first time Jack asked him to do something. Usually the man even ordered something to her without caring about her response. This is the first time in years.

“Come back to me, let's get our relationship back to what it used to be Chal.”

Jack said softly and further tightened his embrace, Clara just fell silent. Wasn't it the freedom he wanted from his relationship with Jack? Now that he doubts it all, he wants to go back to what he used to be, he wants to re-establish a beautiful relationship with Jack Hilton.

“Can you accept this child?”

Hearing a short question from Clara was now able to make Jack speechless for a moment. Seeing how Jack was behaving, Clara simply smiled wryly, even such a short question Jack had to think of answering. I don't know what makes Jack so hard to accept his own son, but it really hurts him.

Jack now let go of his embrace and looked at Clara who was already looking the other way. It seems so obvious that Clara was quite disappointed with her reaction. Even she herself forgot the fact that Clara was pregnant with her child, after so many problems she faced, she forgot Clara who was struggling to maintain their baby.

“Clara.”

Both Jack and Clara now looked towards the source of the voice. A few meters from where they stood there was Chris who was looking at the two with a knotty smile. It's only been a few days and Jack has now asked Clara to come back to him. It was not a misstep this time to make Clara as the golden key.

Seeing the presence of Chris instantly made Jack clenched his hand firmly. Still clearly visible bluish marks on the corner of Chris' lips due to his blow a few days ago. And the man seemed to want to add bruises on his face by presenting his nose here.

“Calm man! I just want to pick up my girlfriend here.”

Hearing Chris' short words, Jack quickly pulled the collar of the man who had a few inches below. Seeing Jack's back flaring temprament, Clara quickly held Jack's hand and looked at him in annoyance.

Chris looked at Jack and smiled. It was obvious how Jack was so temperament when it came to Clara, and she liked him so much.

“Let go, Jack! Release!”

Clara began to say annoyed, always the violence that Jack did if he did not get what he wanted. It's one of those things he hates about Jack. Hearing Clara's words, Jack did not budge. The man still pulled Chris by the collar and looked at the man sharply.

“You rude man Jack, you monster. I hate you.”

Clara's slow remarks are now able to make Jack remove Chris' collar and look at Clara in disbelief. Seeing his chance, Clara quickly pulls Chris away from Jack by holding the man's arm into Chris's car. Jack who saw it only smiled wryly and lowered his head in seeing the departure of the two.

The words that even he did not believe were all coming out of Clara's mouth. He's monster? He even did all this for the girl. Shawn, Dean and even now Chris. Does Clara never understand?

“You're outrageous Chris, this isn't like our agreement. You always provoke Jack.”'s anger

Once in the car, Clara now looked at Chris with annoyance. Chris always said he was his girlfriend, even he only knew the man a few days ago. Either Chris or Jack has a competition like what, but it is clear that Chris is just playing with Jack's emotions.

“I like Jack and his temperament, I just teased him a little.”
