Upon sneaking around to eat my food, I decided to take a long walk outside.


It'll be good to clear my head.




This time as I walk outside, I don't head for The Forbidden Forest like I would usually, instead I just want to walk along the outside of the school.





What am I to do with Henry?




It's clear now that what Tom said the day before was true.



Henry has been hanging around with other girls.



He's very likely lied straight up to my face many times.



A lot of his actions and words were probably worth nothing to him, while they meant a lot to me.





So why don't I feel....as hurt?



At least as hurt as I felt before.





When me and Tom finally ended things, everything hurt.



Everything felt dull, dead.



I wasn't motivated to do anything.



I remember the rest of the winter break I spent in my bed.



I wanted to sleep the whole thing away.




But now with Henry, it doesn't feel at all like that.


I feel normal.


Maybe just a little more loosened up.



Is it bad that I feel that way?
