More Than Two
Jessica found herself utterly confused by the unfolding situation. From the moment they crossed paths, she and Jefferson had been inseparable, like two peas in a pod.

Swathed in a cloak of uncertainty, Jessica remained in the dark, eagerly observing and patiently awaiting Jefferson's next words, struggling to contain the whirlwind of emotions swirling within her. The best day of her life was going nowhere but downhill.
It Was Not All a Garden of Roses
As doubt and confusion seeped into Jessica's mind. She questioned herself. Had she overlooked crucial details or failed to be as perceptive as she believed? The realization that something was wrong weighed heavily upon her. It was an all-too-familiar story, where the demands of work, family, friends, and the complexities of life could overshadow the deepest connections.
Could anyone truly claim to know another person inside out? Didn't everyone hold secrets, and live dual lives to some extent? These thoughts tugged at Jessica's heart, reminding her of the complexity of being human, and fueling her desire to unravel the unknown before her.
Giovana
With a breathless pause, Jefferson revealed the name that had been on the tip of his tongue. Giovana. Her presence suddenly held great significance, causing the room to collectively gasp in surprise.
