Chapter 24

Song- Afraid, Unafraid by Slumberjack ft Sydnee Carter

I didn't want Oliver to feel like I didn't give him closure. So I called Natalia because I had to tell her, I was coming in because Dexter asked to hang out and I could just ask her to talk to Oliver.

Natalia: hi, Cordelia 

Me: hello I was just calling to tell you that I'm won't be coming in today

Natalia: ok

Me: and can I talk to Oliver 

Natalia: sure *few seconds later*

Oliver: hey

Me: what I said yesterday was true but I will never regret, or wish I'd never met you, because you were what I needed. You didn't care what I put you through. Yesterday I wasn't mad at you, I just wanted you to care about how I feel.

Oliver: I know, what I did was wrong

Me: sorry I have to go right now 

Dexter house

Girl: DEXTER, YOUR FRIEND IS HERE! 

Me: hi, what's your name

Girl: Lena

Me: lovely name, I'm Cordelia 

Dexter: Lena what have you been telling her

Lena: my name

Dexter: oh, I have many siblings 

Me: must be cool, not getting bored quickly 

Dexter: it can be annoying have so many younger than me

Me: you're the oldest

Dexter: yeah but come in and I'll gather them

Me: where should I go

Dexter: right in there, I'll be right back

Me: ok

Dexter: HEY LITTLE ONES COME TO THE LIVING ROOM, I HAVE TO INTRODUCE SOMEONE *says as he walks off*

They all came in beside Lena and his mom because they are already here with me.

Dexter: ok so, you met Lena who is eight, Leon who is twelve, Felix who is seven, Johanna who is two, and Lilly who is eight also. Lena and Lilly are twins

Me: hi all of you, I'm Cordelia 

Lilly: is your name deutsche 

Me: German 

Lilly: yeah

Me: I don't think so, I'm pretty sure it's latin 

Dexter: my name isn't German either

Me: why, Lilly 

Lilly: I'm learning German because we're have German in us and I want to

Me: do you know German, Dexter

Dexter: Ich trinke wasser

Me: what does that mean

Lena: I drink water

Me: you do, I never knew that Dexter 

Dexter: you are always finding out new things about me

Leon: Dexter can you help me with something 

Dexter: yeah, I'll be right back. Lena don't do anything 

Lena: yep

Dexter left and I started to look at the photos. It looks like they travel a lot. Their dad might be gone a lot too. There was a family group photo and I see Dexter when he was like five but the math of some of the kids wouldn't be in this picture but there was another little girl, about Dexter age. I look over where Lena was, she was doing some sort of ballet. 

Me: Lena 

Lena: yes

Me: who is this girl

Lena: oh... that's... Charlotte 

Me: who was she

Lilly: she was our sister. 

D mom: she was about 4 in that picture 

Me: what happened to her

D mom: she died

Me: oh sorry

D mom: 2 years ago

Me: was when she died

D mom: yeah

Lilly: she was with her friend and..  sie gerieten in einen autounfall

Lena: they got into a car accident 

Dexter: why are you talking about her

Lena: Dexter, sorry

Author Note
So for the German part, I'm not sure if some of its correct because I'm using Google Translate. I am learning German right now but I haven't gotten very far into it but I know that what Dexter said was correct.
