"Okay Ophelia , time to go" said Ophelia looking in the mirror

She was wearing a black turtleneck shirt with a purple gem like button on the base of the neck ,purple pants and a bag over her shoulder

She took a deep breath and walked to the door of her room

"Let's do this" said Ophelia walking out of her room

Then she stealthily walked around the Blight mansion

Walking towards the front door

Then as she finally reached the door

"Ophelia , where are you going?" Asked someone with a female voice

Ophelia felt a chill go down her spine

"Uh Mom! what're you doing here ,I thought you__" said Ophelia before Odalia cut her off

"Don't dodge my question Ophelia" said Odalia frowning

"I'm going to uh, uhh" stuttered Ophelia "the library , I need a book from there"

"Is that where you've been going to all this time?" Asked Odalia

Hearing this Ophelia's heart sank , she messed up!

"Uhh yeah , I usually just read there , but today I'm borrowing a book from there" said Ophelia nervously

"I see , carry on then" said Odalia as she turned around to leave

Ophelia let out a breath she didn't know she was holding

She walked out of the door and left the mansion

Ophelia thought about where she messed up

And she realized something

She was way too organized , even her mysterious trips were always on the exact same time

And she barely leaves the mansion for things other than school or coventions

"I'll think about it later" said Ophelia before pulling out a black robe with a hood

After she put it on she walked towards her destination

__

It was a sweets store

That's where Ophelia was headed

It may look very dumb and unneeded to hide such a thing

But Ophelia didn't want her mom knowing anything about her, even what kind of sweets she liked

Because she was afraid of what her mom would do with that slight bit of information

And the sweets she got were like a savior to her

The stress from School ,her mom, constantly paying attention to her surroundings, the glares she gets from certain people  , Ed and Em

The only thing helping her through that was Amity , the good witch Azura books and these sweets

Of course she didn't overeat and she works out , so she's sure no one knows a thing

It was worth it , and it was the reason she messed up with that boy

She had a stressful , horrible few days , and when she went to grab her stress relief

It was sold out , her favorites were sold out

And she , having nothing to rely on to forget her troubles

She collapsed , she cried and complained to the air , about everything , she yelled about it
