Recap-

After everything finally ended at 17 no Jenna no more nightmares just dad and I finally at peace yes I still get anxiety attacks but I now know how to get through them.

I moved out a couple months ago after I managed to start selling my art and go to art college. Dad wanted me to peruse singing but everyone knows I get to shy when it comes to it but I have tried boasting my confidence and do small shows around the place but dad doesn't know that.

I moved to a really cute three bedroom apartment a couple of streets from dads I didn't want to go far he's the only one who can help calm my attacks of course. We meet up twice a week and I go over to his whenever I need to chill out or I'm having a rough time, I go to his on Fridays stay the night and dad comes to mine Sundays for dinner considering I can cook unlike him and then he goes home most of the time late as he doesn't remember I have college the next day.

I found a roommate her name is cat short for Catherine we met the first week of college and had an immediate connection and things went on one month later she's now my best friend and roommate (yes she knows about dad)

Today is Friday so that means I go to dads but I am currently at college doing some last details on my project and then when I get home I've got to drive and drop off a painting to a buyer dad had his media management make a website and Instagram for my paintings and stuff so I get a lot of buyers. College ends in another hour and I've got to finish this by next week we get time to do so in our break next week to which I'm going to spend with dad so I'm going home Saturday and then going to dads with him Sunday I know makes no sense to just stay but I got to pack and dad wanted me to cook dinner at mine he's so strange sometimes.

Two hours later I am driving to a buyers house to drop of the painting once I get to the house I knock on the door to see an elderly lady. "Hey I have a painting for Ms Jenkins?" I questioned "yes that's me" the sweet lady says "I love your work my grandson told me about the website and showed me your account and your work was too beautiful not to buy any" the lady says making me smile wait grandson "grandson?" I questioned "oh yes he goes to the same college as you in some of the same classes he says that you don't see him much as your too into your work" she explains "oh okay" I laugh "yeah here you go" she handed me 50 bucks. We waved goodbye and I was on my way to dads.

I hate waiting 5 days to see ally but at least she's going to be staying for a week on Sunday. I really hate her leaving but she needs her freedom and it's not like she's moved to the other side of the earth but still I miss my baby and I worry that something wrong might happen. Ally said she was running a bit late as she had to run an error but will be here in about 20 minutes. I honestly can't wait to see her I really do miss Ally.

"I'm here I'm here sorry I'm late a sweet lady bought one of my pieces and I had to drop it off" she said walking into the kitchen to grab a drink and then sat by the counter next to me kissing my check "it's okay sweetie how was college?" I asked "it was good we get a week off to finish our pieces so when I come Sunday I will be bringing my art so sorry in advance" she said taking a sip from her coke "it's okay I haven't moved your art room or anything so it's cool" I said making her giggle a little bit "you are allowed to change that room if you want I'm only her once a week unless I have holidays I'm sure I can make do in my room" she said make me shake my head no "I can't do that it's what reminds me of you and that room is where you feel most inspired" I explained "however I can change your room" I said earning a hit to my arm.

"What's the plan for dinner?" I asked walking to the couch with dad already sat there "uhhhhh I may or may not forgot to prep anything to cook" he said making me laugh "Indian food?" I asked dad nodded.

30 mins later food came and I answered the door as dad was getting out of the shower "here" I said handing the man some money thanking him and walked back inside "dinners here!" I yelled upstairs "coming hun" dad said running downstairs getting his wallet out "uhhh I paid you don't need to get that out" I said placing the food in the kitchen "Alice" he said with a serious tone "Christopher" I mimic his tone while dad raised an eyebrow "it's dad Ally.. I should of payed you cook Sunday I cook Friday meaning I pay Friday" he said "oh come on dad it's just food I can afford it" I said dishing up "how much was it?" He asked "i don't know" I replied ripping up the bill "really? Okay fine whatever I'm paying for whatever your cooking Sunday" he said "deal" I replied bringing my food into the front room. "So what piece did that lady buy?" Dad asked "she bought one of my biggest paintings it was a sunset over LA beach" I explained "oh I know the one that one is beautiful how much did you sell it for?" He asked "50 bucks" I replied stuffing rice in my mouth "that's all? You could get more from them" he said "dad I don't see the point in high charging for a piece of work that I loved creating" I shook my head "okay okay fair enough".

"Right I'm heading to bed" I said getting up giving dad a kiss on the cheek "goodnight sweetie" dad smiled "night dad"
