Betsy's POV:-
It has been 6 years that school is over for me. I passed school, graduated from the university as a psychologist and currently work as a counsellor and advisor. It's ironic that so many people need counselling these days. Whether it's regarding family or business, there are always people looking for an advisor. I live far from my parents and from the possibility of ever meeting Kevin in my life. Not that I know his whereabouts. But it's better to stay away from a probability. Now that I think of it, I feel like I was really stupid. Even though it doesn't matter now.
I've been offered to teach Psychology in some colleges but I feel like I'm not matured enough for that. I feel like I need more experience even though I've counselled many people who've come back and thanked me for their success and end of their brief grief. I still don't have much friends and live all by myself in an old apartment that I rented from an old lady.
The landlady is just like my late grandmother. Whenever I talk to her, I miss my granny so badly. I miss the days mom sent me to granny's to live with her as my parents were going through a major financial crisis and didn't have time to take care of me as they had to work day and night like the heart, to keep the family alive.
She's the only reason I chose this dusty apartment to live in. I could afford a better place but her love is just so resisting. She helps me cope with homesickness and feel the family love even though they're miles away from me. Oh, and I became an older sister just last year after my mom gave birth to my brother, Flynn. She hasn't been to work ever since. It's funny that my mother gave birth at this old age. And that's perfectly fine as I financially support my parents for everything. They're the only reason I came this far. Dad still works but not as before. He works less since I'm now employed and look after them. I can never forget the struggles they had to raise me.
I've never met any of my school friends after highschool. I don't want to. I've come this far all by myself, their presence or absence won't change a thing in my life. Soon, I'll be dealing with depression patients in hospitals. But that doesn't mean I'll give up what I'm doing right now. I'll always motivate and advise people to move ahead in life. Well, that's the summary of my present life. I'm pretty happy with the life I'm living right now.
As usual, as I come back home from work, my dog Toby greets me as I enter the front door. He's such a cutie. Sometimes, I feel scared living all by myself and when he's around, I feel like I have a company. Dog is a man's best friend after all; even though I'm a woman, it applies the same. I don't exactly know his breed as it was my friend's dog and she left it to me before she left for abroad. He's been my best friend ever since. He's brown and fluffy. I adore him.
I haven't changed much though. I'm still that 5"1 short girl and wear comfortable clothes rather than sophisticated fashion. But I try to look good during meetings and appointment with clients. So basically, I just wear my comfy clothes inside the comfort of my home. I had an eye surgery last year and don't have to wear glasses anymore.
This is just a brief summary of what happened after 6 years. Story continues from the next chapter.
