She Told Me Not to Worry (SEQUEL to He Told Me Not to Tell) COMPLETE

69

Kenzie's POV

I've realized that the only way to get through this life was acceptance. I have to accept my past, knowing nothing can ever change it. I have to accept that my future will be so much more brighter than any of these past years. No more worrying about my father or Mark. I have to accept that they're gone, and they aren't going to hurt me anymore. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad I'm safe, but it's so hard to not be on the lookout for them anymore. My whole life I've been paranoid. It's hard to just let my guard down.

I have to accept that the only way to get rid of these disorders is to believe in myself. If I don't believe, no person or thing can ever help me. I have to help myself.

But most importantly, I'm accepting a family. One with both a Mom and Dad, and we're happy. But that's not too hard to accept.

I have Mom to thank for everything. For never leaving me when I was being difficult, and for always encouraging me to work my hardest. She always believed in me, no matter how weak I seemed.

She always told me to be brave and strong. She taught me to be confident, but also to stay true to myself. To stay kind and humble.

She told me she always had my back, and that I could count on her for anything.

She told me to come to her for anything, because she would take care of me.

She told me it was okay to cry when I needed to. She told me it would make me stronger.

She told me to trust her.

And so I did.

And through the toughest times of my life, she told me not to worry.
