After getting the directions, Rory searched for the house. She found it finally. It was a nice ranch house with a fenced in yard.
Rory stood on the sidewalk across the street and stared. Someone came out of the house behind her.
"Can I help you dear? Are you lost?"it was an elderly woman.
"Um, actually my friend used to live in that house. I was wondering if he still does."
"Little Johnny Parker dear?"
"Um, yes."Rory lied.
"Oh, dear, he passed on several years ago from the cancer."
"Oh that's horrible."Rory felt bad for asking."Who lives here now? Are his parents still there?"
"Oh no dear. A nice young family moved in. Sasha, Jimmy and Lily. There's a teenage boy hanging around sometimes too. Sasha tells me that he's Jimmy's son."she explained.
"Oh. Thank you so much."
"Sorry about Johnny dear."the elderly woman smiled politely and went back inside.
Rory stared at the house a minute longer. The door opened and a man walked out who looked similar to Jess. Rory quickly walked back to the hotel. She'd lost her nerve.
She headed back to her room and got her purse and then headed out again. She walked down the street bit and found some cute little shops. She went inside and instantly found some things she loved. She bought them and even got Lorelai a little hula dancer. It looked like something you would find in Hawaii.
Rory got some dinner and went back to her hotel to eat it, alone.
She had come all the way to California to see Jess and had now lost her nerve. She only had a few days. She couldn't do it again. She couldn't. She hadn't come all this way for nothing.
After finishing her dinner she called Lorelai.
"Hello?"
"Mom?"
"Rory!"Lorelai shrieked.
"Rory?"Rory heard Luke ask in the background.
"What's Luke doing there?"
"I'm at Luke's hun. Are you safe?"
"Yes."
"Why do you need to see Jess, Rory?"Lorelai asked.
"Mom, I told you in the note. You didn't call him and say anything did you? He doesn't know I'm here yet."
"No, no. Luke was ready to but I made him hang up the phone till we heard from you."
"Don't call him."
"Are you going to see him?"Lorelai asked.
"Yes. I went to his house but chickened out and left."
"You weren't a girl scout again were you?"Lorelai teased.
"Mooom!"Rory whined.
"Sorry, couldn't resist. Call me and keep me posted hun."
"I will mom. love you, bye."
"Love you sweets."
Rory hung up and turned her phone off and then went to bed early. She didn't want to think about seeing Jess anymore.
