This is a story about Jem, her tragic and sweet romance.
............
She took a deep breath as she rose up with a 'bright' smile....
"I AM OKAY!! I, JEMROCHE LEE, CAN DO MUCH MORE THAN THISSSS!" she shouted, destroying the peace and quiet of the shore.
She laughed, as if she's satisfied to what she did.
She went to back to her house by foot, she hummed happy songs....hoping that all her negative feelings go away.
Suddenly....a car which is driving so fast almost caught her.
Jem took a step back as she fell down at the side of the road.
"Cough, cough" she breath the smoke that the car released, making her cough hard.
Jem felt something stingy and folded her sleeves up, she saw that her arm is slightly bleeding.
"So careless" She thought, she's not in the mood to argue, the injury is not worth a fuss.
"MISS!" a shout said at her back.
'Me? No...in my current state, many would mistaken me as a boy' she didn't turned around and continued walking.
But what surprised her is that, someone grabbed her hand, when she was about to slap it away, a money appeared at her sight.
"Sorry, my friend is...Huff...in a bad mood, so he drove so fast, he almost caught you. I saw your arm was bleeding earlier, so take this a compensation," he is panting as he said that.
He got a brown messy hair, his eyes is also brown, he got a tall nose and slightly thick brows, his slightly tanned face have a few sweat.....in short, his face is slightly above average
Jem took a look at the thick bundle of paper as she thought, 'Its just a simple graze, did he just randomly grab this?'
She sighed, she was in a good mood earlier but was disturbed again, 'I better solve this quickly'
"Good sir, it's just a graze, I'll just get 5 of these, not all, because it's too much" she said as she grab 5 paper money that have 3 zeroes. It's ₱1000
'I can live for a week with this much money' Jem thought.
"W-what? just that much?" the man said with surprise.
"Good sir, I don't know how you know that I'm a girl (maybe you are a play boy that's why) but this much money is already many for me, it's just a simple graze anyway"
"O-oh you are not like other women" he said with a smile.
"Good sir, there are many women that's like me, you just met many gold diggers" Jem said with monotone as she started to get irritated.
"Oh hahaha" the man laughed in embarrassment, then his call rang
He answered it, Jem want to leave already, but it's a bad manners to not say goodbye to the other party, she is raised as a well-mannered lady.
"Yes, yes, sorry...I made you wait for too long" the man said as he hanged up
"Nice talking to you miss, I'm going now, my friend waited for too long now"
'Noice' she thought as she said with a slight smile, "Same here, good sir, bye now"
She turned around as she didn't noticed that the man inside the car, didn't left his gaze to her figure, not even a moment.
