# Sweetheart Diary #12 This issue contains stories of romantic conflict and jealousy. "I Only Wanted to Make Him Jealous" follows a woman who attempts to provoke her boyfriend Eric's jealousy by flirting with another man, but when he confronts her rival Jimmy at her apartment door, a violent altercation erupts that leaves her stunned and regretting her scheme. A second story involves a woman named Gloria who, suspecting her boyfriend Greg of infidelity with a girl named Jean, spreads rumors that Greg drowned Jean—a lie that spirals into a tabloid scandal when newspapers pick up the story, forcing her to testify at a grand jury trial and ultimately confess her deception to Greg's parents. A third narrative focuses on a woman's workplace conflict when she discovers her boss Mr. Webb is considering replacing her with Carl, leading to emotional confrontation about her value and future at the office.

Contains 4 stories
I Wanted to Make Him Jealous
10 pp · Romance

A young woman eagerly awaits the return of her fiancé Jimmy after two years apart, her heart full of romantic plans—but when he finally arrives, his quiet, serious demeanor and preference for quiet evenings at home leave her feeling taken for granted and resentful. Bernard Baily's pencils and inks bring this tale of mismatched expectations to life as a budding rift forms between a couple who may have grown in very different directions. Will a moment of jealousy be the spark that reignites their connection, or will it drive them further apart?

One for the Records
0.5 pp · Humor

A young woman mistakes a manhole cover for a long-playing record and nearly carries it home—only to discover her hilarious mix-up when a passerby sets her straight. It's a quick laugh about the perils of not paying attention to what you're picking up off the street.

The Accuser
10 pp · Romance

When Gloria returns home after years away, she reconnects with an old flame named Greg—only to discover he's engaged to Jean. Torn between duty and desire, Greg finds himself caught between the two women, while Gloria's growing obsession and Jean's fierce jealousy push tensions to a breaking point. As Gloria testifies in court, she becomes the accuser in a tragedy that will reshape all their lives.

Tears for Tomorrow
9 pp · Romance

A young woman torn between love and ambition finds herself caught in an impossible choice when her demanding employer demands her presence on the very night that could change everything. Working for the difficult Silas Webb has worn her down—his constant criticism and explosive temper are a daily ordeal—but she's stayed because she believes the store will someday be hers. When her boyfriend Carl lands a promising opportunity with the Clayton Company and proposes they marry and start fresh together, she's forced to confront what she's really willing to sacrifice for a dream that may never come true.
