Love Is Never an Easy Thing

By: Evelyn Sanchez

         “Would you like to dance?” Jesus asked Emmy. Emmy said yes and they started to dance. They looked in each other’s eyes and they felt a connection, Emmy was a little shy so she kept her head down when they kept on dancing. When the song was over they went to go sit down, Jesus followed Emmy and they sat together. They started to talk and laugh and they found out that they knew each other. They knew each other by Facebook; they just didn't notice each other since they really didn't talk as much. When it was time to leave the club Jesus called Emmy over to come and sit next to him and they started holding hands. Emmy started to blush and then Jesus grabbed Emmy and kissed her; inside Emmy was happy. It was her first kiss she thought she would be nervous when it happened, but she wasn't. They talked a lot more and started to get feelings for one another. They would talk everyday twenty-four hours, seven days a week.
         Jesus was very sweet and very smart. He sometimes had some anger issues that he needed to fix because he was such a jealous person, but other than that he was a good person. Jesus would chat with Emmy all day even all night if they wanted to keep talking. They would send one another a picture that said I love you; they would also dedicate songs to each other. Every single night that they talked they fell for each other more and more. Once they were to the point that they wanted to see one another and spend time with each other but they lived very far away from one another. Even though they lived far, they would still talk every day and every night until they fell asleep. At times they would get very sad because they couldn't see each other.
         One night Emmy was going through Jesus’s Facebook profile and she sees that one girl posted on his wall “Your mine babe OK”. Emmy got mad and jealous, so she messaged Jesus
                    “Why did she post that on your wall?”
                    “I don’t know she just put that”
                    “Really you don’t know are you sure?” “Am I the only girl you’re telling sweet things to or are you just going around telling everyone you’re beautiful I love you?”
                    “No babe I’m being honest I don’t know why she posted that on my wall I really like you I don’t want to lose you”
                    “I don’t know I don’t believe you I think it’s just bull crap”
                    “Why babe I’m being honest please believe me :(?”
                    “Okay babe I believe you ”
                    “Thanks babe I love you and only you ”
                    “Well I have to go goodnight babe”
                    “Goodnight I love you sweet dreams. I’ll text your tomorrow :)”
         A few months passed and Jesus and Emmy were doing great. They've got older and started going out they now go to each other’s houses and spend lots of time together. One day Emmy’s cousin Jennifer was coming over to visit her for a few days or weeks. She was having problems at home so she asked Emmy is she could stay over for a few days, but Jennifer didn't really like New York she thought it was too noisy. Although she didn't like New York it was the only place she could go to because she had nowhere else to go to for help. When Jennifer arrived to Emmy’s house she rang the doorbell, Jesus and Emmy were inside together in the living room watching movies together. Emmy said “Oh I think that’s my cousin coming from Mississippi, I’ll open the door.”
         Emmy opened the door –
                   “Hi how are you Jennifer? It’s so wonderful to see you again!”
                    “Hey Emmy, it’s great to see you to. I’m doing okay you know still have some problems at home.”
                    “Oh well it’s good that you came and visit you need some time off from all those problems back home In Mississippi.”
                    “Oh yes I need some time off to relax and what better time with my dear cousin Emmy!”
                    “Ha-ha well I would like you to meet my boyfriend Jesus, babe this is my cousin Jennifer, Jennifer this is my boyfriend Jesus.”
                    “Hi, it’s very nice to meet you”
                    “Hey, it’s very nice to meet you too”
                    “Well we should go out to eat to celebrate that you are here safely with us”
         When they arrived at the restaurant Emmy and Jesus were excited because they were at their favorite restaurant. They all ate and had fun catching up on things or getting to know one another. Jesus really liked Jennifer he thought she was as beautiful like a rose and nice; Jennifer thought Jesus was very cute and funny although Jesus was going out with Emmy he couldn't stop thinking about Jennifer. As days went by Jesus and Emmy started to have some problems they would fight more often. Usually they would never fight, Jennifer would feel bad because she would think it was her fault and she would want to leave, but Jesus wouldn't let her leave. Emmy would get jealous because he would choose Jennifer’s side over her side.
         As more days went by things were getting worse and Emmy started to suspect that Jesus was cheating on her with her own cousin Jennifer. She wasn't so sure, but she had a bad feeling at the bottom of her gut that Jesus was cheating on her. One day Emmy told Jesus that she was going to go on a little trip with her friend Day-Day, Jesus didn't want her to leave but he was just making a scene so Emmy would see that he does care for her. Emmy didn't buy it one bit so she decided to leave as soon as possible because she felt like crying and she didn't want Jesus to see her in tears. As weeks passed by Jesus and Jennifer were having the times of their lives together without them worrying about if they were going to get caught by Emmy. They would watch movies together and eat together at their new favorite restaurant.
         When days went by Jesus was getting tired of Jennifer he didn't like her anymore, he would get frustrated by her because she was becoming so clingy towards him. One day Emmy called home and said she would be coming back the next day, Jennifer didn't like that so she tired her best to get rid of Emmy but nothing worked. Jesus was very excited when he found out he went to every store and bought Emmy roses and chocolates, he even bought rose petals to put on the bed to make a heart for her. The next day Jesus woke up early to wait for Emmy to arrive, he went upstairs to Emmy's bedroom to prepare everything for her, so when he was done he sat down and waited in front of the window to see when she would arrive. A few minutes later he heard a knock on the door and I was Jennifer.
                   He told Jennifer,
                   “What are you doing here? Please leave!”
                    “I want to be with you leave Emmy for me please baby I love you”
                   “No I told you I don’t like you anymore what we had was just a little thing I love Emmy she is like my whole world she’s my soul mate”
                   “No please baby I love you! :(”
         Jennifer was being to clingy and getting closer to Jesus, but Jesus didn't want to get caught since they were in Emmy's room Jesus told Jennifer to back away but she didn't listen. Jesus heard someone knock on the door it was Emmy she was trying to open the door but it was locked. She tried and tried to open it until she heard a noise in her room she yelled who’s in there and everything got quiet she kicked the door down and saw Jennifer kissing Jesus. Emmy then ran away and Jesus got very angry and pushed Jennifer out the way. He ran to the hall to catch up to Emmy but Jennifer got in his way, so then Jesus grabbed Jennifer and shoved her down the stairs. Emmy just stood at the bottom of the stairs looking in shock of what just happened.
         She ran to call the police but when she got to the phone she just stood there like if she was frozen, but really Jesus was standing behind her with a knife stuck to her back. He had killed Jennifer and Emmy, when he saw what he had done he feel on his knees and started to panic. He started crying and rocking back and forth trying to figure what he had to do next. The cops where on their way and Jesus wanted to escape to another country but he couldn't because he knew he would get caught by the cops. So Jesus just sat there rocking back and forth and thinking about what he could have done differently. Tears started to fall down his cheeks and he crawled next to Emmy’s dead body hugging her and he started to say,
                   “Emmy my love, my babe forgive me I didn't mean to kill you.” “I loved you with all my heart, and I’m very very sorry for hurting you, I never thought this would happen”
         As he was talking to her the cops came and they kept on knocking on the door to come in, the door was locked and the cops barged in and they were looking for him. Jesus got up and ran to the kitchen and he went to the cabinet and got a gun and he pointed it at his head he was about to shoot it but then the cops came in and stopped him. Jesus didn't let them he said if they didn't back away he would shoot the cops were standing there and they said Okay, but first that he had to put the gun down. Jesus was thinking and he didn't want to let it down because he wanted to die and be with Emmy. When he was thinking the cops came towards him and he said stop or I will shoot and the cops said okay just let the gun go. The cops walked more towards him and Jesus shot himself, the cops ran towards Jesus and he was dead.
         A Few minutes later the cop’s wen to go check on the other girls because they wanted to know if they were dead, so the cop turned Emmy around and she was still alive and breathing. When they found out that Emmy was alive they called the ambulance immediately. They helped Emmy up and put her on the bed, and they drove her to the hospital. When they arrived Emmy’s really nice and short parents came to see her at the hospital. Emmy woke up and saw her parents and her best friend she said,
                   “What’s going on? Where is Jesus? What happened to Jennifer?”
                   “Everything is going to be fine, but Jennifer... she died... and Jesus...”
                   “What's wrong with Jesus mom!?”
                   “Jesus.....Jesus killed himself because he thought you died.”
         In that moment Emmy’s life changed forever, she cried and she wanted to die, but as the years went by, she recovered and forgot about Jesus only in her heart she knew she only loved him . Emmy promised herself that she would not go out with anyone else but she eventually gave up and starting dating again because she wanted a family.
