A Lot of Suffering
Bryson’s eyes flickered. He thought the look in Jennifer’s eyes was weird.
Bryson pressed his lips together and looked at Jennifer in confusion.
Jennifer let out a deep sigh and spoke again, “I’ve got a crush on someone as long as you adore
Gloria, even longer.”
Bryson was surprised. “You…”
All these years?
She’s been in love with a guy for years?
How can I not know about this?
According to Jennifer, it must be a man I’ve known for a long time.
But Jennifer is never particularly close to a guy.
While Bryson was lost in thought, Jennifer spoke again, “And I often see him show his love to that girl.
He loves that girl as much as I love him. I have to hide my feelings for him and see him liding his at the
same time. He and I are suffering.”
Bryson’s face changed slightly.
He saw deep affection in Jennifer’s eyes, and her eyes never left his…
For a moment, Bryson panicked.
The guy Jennifer likes…
Suddenly Bryson fell silent.
He was afraid if he kept asking her questions, he would face more difficulties. And he feared that this
feeling would come over him again.
In an instant, he felt like he understood Gloria’s feelings.
And he realized who Jennifer’s crush might be.
Gloria knows I’ve had a big crush on her all these years, and that bothers her, right?
She’s even a little scared, isn’t she?
Just as Bryson was contemplating his own thoughts, Jennifer smiled and spoke again, “Do you know
how bad it makes me feel? I love him so much, but I can’t be selfish. I know he doesn’t love me. I can’t
tell him about my feeling for him but only keep it to myself. At least you can say it out loud. Bryson, do
you know what that feels like?”
Bryson opened his mouth but could not utter a word.
He didn’t know what to do.
He was in no mood to talk just now, but now he felt that if he didn’t say anything, it would make Jennifer
feel worse.
Jennifer told him everything, though she didn’t put it very explicitly.
Bryson should have realized that Jennifer had never been around a man except himself. It was pretty
obvious that she liked him.
Jennifer couldn’t help but sigh, “Bryson, sometimes people can’t decide their fates, but if two people
love each other, there’s not so much drama.”
Bryson pressed his lips together and remained silent.
Jennifer, sitting next to Bryson, chuckled, “Sometimes I wish the girl he likes was me. How I wish I
could spend the rest of my life with him! But striving so hard for this only gets me nowhere. Even if I
hope it’ll happen, I know that it won’t. An act of true love is to let go.”
Jennifer spoke with emphasis on the last words.
Bryson’s pupils dilated a little.
An act of true love is to let go…
So I’m supposed to let go, right?
Jennifer looked down silently, trying to resist the urge to tell him her true feelings.
I’ve said everything I need to say.
And I can’t tell him more than that.
