The Royal love

Chapter 6

Cordelia

Ever since I came back home from the hospital, I've felt different. I've felt more alive and I don't know what it means. I know I'm suppose to be moving on from the situation, which I am because now I have a sudden urge to leave home and travel the world. When I was a little girl I always wanted to go to Europe. Right now I'm at the dinner table with my family. Everyone talking, doing their own thing, but me? I'm in my own La La land.

"Honey you okay?" My mom asked.

I looked at her and blurted out "I want to go to Europe". Everyone became silence from my sudden outburst you could even hear a pin drop. My dad cleared his throat and said "As a vacation or what?"

"I want to live in one of the countries in Europe, England, London to be exact." My parents looked at each other in shock.

"Why all of a sudden?" My mom said "do you want all of us to go?"

"No, just me because I really need a change in my life and I want something different. I think me going to England will help find myself." My sister started coughing "You wont be able to go, what money to get there, where are you going to live?"

"Pumpkin, I understand what your saying but me and your mother need to talk about this". I sighed and let out a nod. When everyone finished eating, I started cleaning the table, wereas my sister started doing the dishes. My parents went into the living room to start our 'movie night'.

"Cor, I know that you always wanted to go to England but your gonna have to really be careful what your choosing" my sister said.

"What do you mean?"

"Did you forget what just happen to you, do you really want to go alone in the world something like that could happen again?"

"That's another reason I want to go. I want to forget that anything like being sexually assaulted. Its killing me." I've had so much anger built up inside me that I couldn't hold back anymore. "To be really honest, I would've thought you would encourage me to follow my dreams."

"I am---" my sister try to let out.

"But whatever your dream is yours, you get all of the support, and you get what you want. I never say anything. So why rain on my parade now?"

"I'm not trying to because I completely understand where you are coming from."

"Whatever, I need to go outside and take a walk alone, when you finish cleaning can you tell mom and dad that ill be back soon." I left right away, needed some space to myself. I started walking down the street from my house.

I wonder what life would've been like if I was who I am. To be really honest I'm a friendly, helpful, kind, outgoing person, why are people in this world just so cruel. I looked at my surroundings and started humming when I see no one in plain sight.

"You know you shouldn't be outside all alone".
