Things change...

After our little talk, everything changed a bit. They started to be more open and were also taking more time for me. They cared and for the very first time I felt like I was myself and I was not pretending to be one. Our time at the sea was not infinit though it was certainly more fun and definitelly an eye opener. 

I spend most of my times together with Paseton and his sister as well as my cats and the dragon. It was a good time and now it was finally time to part. Let's say if I didn't jump that day, I would have never told Ron and the dragon about what was going on and they would have never understood me at all. Maybe I was wrong in doing so but it felt right. 

Paseton: And? After this two weeks, how are you feeling?

Me: Better... thank you.

Paseton: Don't thank me. You saved my live. This is the least I could do for you.

Me: Still thank you. If it would have been anyone else, they would have done what I asked for at that island but not you... why?

Paseton: I saw myself in you... there was a time I wanted to give up. You know I am a hybrid of a whail and a human. My sister is all I got and I also went through the same thing you did... guess I just wanted to help you like my sister helped me back then.

Me: Did you try?

Paseton: .... yes...

Me: Did she?

Paseton: Yeah... she was the one who got me out of my very own demise. I could only go on thanks to her and I also learned to live with who I am.

Me: So this is why you wanted to help me this badly, huh?

Paseton: Yes.

Me: Wow... how are you now?

Paseton: Over it but it took me years. This is just a start.... a good one.

Me: Thank you.

Paseton: Your welcome.

We slimed at each other while being alone at the beach. This was a goodbye for us both but this was definitelly not a never gonna see you again. I knew that sooner or later we would meet each other again. That is something my gut was telling me and I would gladly bet my life on that as well.

As we were there on the beach, Ron and the others from my group were waiting a couple of meters away and his sister went towards the ocean and was waiting for him there. It was his time to go as the whole whale clan was right there. 

Paseton: Looks like it is my time to go.

I smiled at him and let him go but not before I could tell him one more thing.

Me: Paseton, let's meet again.

After that he smiled at me and ran towards the ocean. This meeting was destined. No one could tell me otherwise. How was it possible for me to meet someone who suffered like me and then save him while he saved me. Quite illogical but nothing was really logical at this point.

Ron: Master Cale, the carriage is here.

Me: Coming.

After I watched my friend go, I quickly returned to my very own companions.

On: Where are we going now?

Me: Home.

Dragon: You mean the castle?

Me: Yeah... it's time to head back... 

Ron: I will not tell them anything.

Dragon: No one will!

Me: Thanks but... I will tell them. It's time to tell them everything... they have to know.

Dragon: Are you sure?

Me: I am. They are my family.

Dragon: You are the bravest human I have seen so far.

Ron: I agree. It takes a lot to accept someones current self and then change themselves for the better.

I didn't know if that was what I was about to do but I knew that they were my family. No matter how much longer I would try to lie to them, someday they would find out and then I would be screwed. They were treating me so nicely up until now that it was defintily my turn now to trust them and to tell them everything. After all they would already know that I am not who I used to be.

Me: Maybe.... but I also have you all at my side.

Dragon: Indeed.

Ron: Yes you have.

On: Count on us!

Hong: Ummmm!

After all this time, I was sick and tired of hiding the turth and who I was. The secret was eating me from the inside out and it was only thanks to Paseton that I could find who I was once again. I lost myself but that week just talking with them and then listening and even not doing anything showed me that my fears were something I came up with. These people were counting on me and accepting me the way I was. Now it was my turn to not lose myself again and be who I am, not pretending to be someone else.

I am and always be my very own person.
