The rest of the week went by in quite a blur. I tried my best to focus in the meetings and participate in the team building activities— which I soon learned that they are a ton of fun.
There are a few things I learned about the sons that I didn't even think about. Such as Rueben is gay, I mean he has gay parents so it could be influenced. Titus is very Self conscious. Arlo has a history of seizures. And much more about the others.
When it was my turn to tell the group something special about me, I honestly didn't know what I was going to say. I just told them my biggest fear was not being loved. Which it seemed Seth made a mental note by the way one of his eyebrows twitched.
I flew back to Velaris after everyone left the real estate house and took out a piece of paper to make notes. These weren't any ordinary notes, I was brainstorming ways that I could make myself a better person. It looked sorta like this:
Making Myself Better
• Keep Calm, Happier thoughts
•Maintain a positive attitude
•Meditate
•Take better care of my appearance.
•Make myself feel pretty
•Love myself before loving others
•Don't worry about what others think
•Spread PositivityI'm proud with how the list turned out. I want to be a better person. Going to the library seemed like a good start, so I let Bex know where I was going, I'm going to the Library. He didn't reply with words. Just a pulse. I also figured I'd change the way I left the house.
I didn't jump out my window, I walked down the stairs and seen My parents, along with Cass, Nesta, Elain, Uncle Az and Amren on the couch. "I'm going to the library. I'm in the mood to read. " I told them with a smile.
Mom tilted her head while wearing a delighted smile. "Ok honey, have fun." With that being said I walked out the front door and didn't fly to the library but walked. The streets of Velaris are so nice when you actually pay attention to them, I soon came to realize.
Clotho was there to welcome me into the library. She nodded her head and smiled. "No need to tell my parents where I'm at, I told them myself." She put her hand over her heart and smiled again.
I walked off and went to my favorite level of the library. The 5th floor.It was full of comedy books and nice- Spicy romance novels I read when I felt really lonely. I plucked a book off a shelf and sat down in a chair at one of the desks and started reading it. It was a story about a girl who was an anarchist. She could put people to sleep with her touch and she never had to sleep. She went by the name Nightmare.
It was very interesting, all the way to the point I lost track of how long I was at the library. I peered out a window and the sun was setting, so I went to Clotho's desk and told her I was taking this one home. She nodded and escorted me out, like she normally does.
I walked the whole way back home just like the way I walked coming from it. When I got to the house they had Gumbo fixed and I sat at the table with them and ate, I talked all about my day and jumped in the conversation when I felt like it. All of the felt nice. Mom and Dad seemed to like it as well. A change is just what I needed, it's for the better.
