My first story about The Summer Trilogy. All rights belong to Jenny Han. I am merely filling in the parts that she left to the reader's imagination. Reviews are strongly encouraged!
This is the prologue. I know it's short, but the chapters will be much longer.
Sincerely, Lynn
It had been about a month since Jeremiah and I called off the wedding. I was heading back to school. Anika said I could be the fourth roommate with Shay, Lynn, and her. I was glad because I had nowhere else to go.
Jeremiah ended up buying Gary's apartment. At least he actually got something he wanted, even if it wasn't me. I still hadn't seen him since our almost wedding. It was too soon. I don't think we'd ever go back to being just friends. It would be too awkward.
I hadn't seen Conrad either. I guess it was a good thing. We finally let each other go, but in my heart, deep down inside, I knew he was always there. Always had been. Always will. Sometimes, I feel relief when I think about him. To know that we finally had closure, but then this grief takes over. It's like I can hardly breathe. My chest starts hurting and I have to close my eyes just to get my pulse and breathing back in check.
I needed to stop. Stop thinking about the Fisher boys. Or Beck's boys as my mother would say. Yes, I had known them all my life. They'd been with me through every step, but finally, I needed time to myself. A life of my own without either of them. I was making a fresh start. Starting anew. If things were meant to be, we'd find our way back to each other. If not, I could move on. Maybe there was a different guy out there for me, maybe not. At this point, I didn't care. I just wanted to focus on myself and graduating college. Starting a career and a life and maybe…a family.
