Helen: Chapter 3

"You gals want hot chocolate?" Eileen asked when they were in the living room.

"I want one, with extra chocolate. Please." Zoe's eyes sparkled at the word "chocolate".

Helen nodded and kept quiet. She was still sobbing.

"Jelly, what's going on?" Zoe asked while Eileen went to the kitchen.

"Nothing. I'm Jelly." Helen smiled, her heart ached, thinking about him.

"There must be something. I know you." Zoe tried.

"Yea. We've been together for too long." Eileen came out with three cups of hot chocolate.

"Seriously, you guys worry too much." Helen took a marshmallow and continued, "I wanna watch that movie you said!"

"That, later. You, now." Zoe was strict.

"Alright, you win. I don't feel like talking about it." Helen smirked. Her tears were dried now. Talking to Zoe and Eileen was the only way she won't think about him. The reason was they never knew about him, she never told them.

"Okay, you've defeated us." Eileen rolled her eyes and went to the DVD player with a DVD in her hand. It was a movie the three randomly picked from the rental store. It was titled "The Holiday" starring Cameron Diaz and Kate Winslet.

"You really sure you don't want to talk about it?" Eileen asked Helen, eying her.

"Nope." Helen drank her hot chocolate.

"Okay." Eileen pressed the "start" button after making herself comfortable on the sofa beside Helen. The three snuggled together, watching the movie and enjoying the hot chocolate.
