A Love Retreat

We started sailing back to New York the next morning. I went out a couple times to check on how the ship was running, but I usually just stayed in my room, thinking about Calypso.

I just couldn't forget about her. I knew she was my one true love, no matter what.

I wanted more than anything to just go back and get rid of James, but he seemed to make Calypso so happy. I couldn't just make her unhappy.

I just had to wonder why the gods were so cruel as to send another hero to Ogygia, even when I helped win a war for them.The gods are cruel.

I couldn't even think about what would happen when James leaves calypso. Maybe she wouldn't feel too bad.

Maybe he would forget about her.

Maybe he would make a stupid promise to go back to her...

I wished I hadn't been sent to Ogygia in the first place. It would have saved me about two years of my life! I probably would be a lot happier right now!

Nobody dared to bother me, which made me feel better, yet it also made me feel very lonely. Why did I have to put a wall in between my friends and I? Didn't I drag them into enough, making them go on this quest with me?

I just wish my tale couldn't end in such a tragedy.

But, of course, the Greeks were known for their tragedy.
