Hello, my dearest Wattpad family! <3
          
          It’s Sunday and I couldn’t get my lazy arse up in time for church, so I’ve logged on to work on Mon Monstre for a bit. Thought I’d also post a little life update :D
          
          1. As you may know, I am a practising attorney now. And things have been hectic! In just two months, I’ve already been promoted at my firm. Not only do I handle client matters, I am also responsible for training the juniors. On top of this, I’m also a realtor, lol. So you can imagine, my time is limited.
          
          2. I’m studying for the conveyancing exam (without going into detail, conveyancing and notarial work are the only 2 specialization fields in South African law). I cannot even describe how colossal the volume of study material is for this exam, which I’ll write in March. I’ll also be starting my Master’s in Tax Law in February, so I’m already getting a head start on that. At my firm, I also oversee the immigration law department, which is a totally new field for me and is quite complex, so I do training for this *every single day*. 
          
          3. Apart from work and academics, I GOT ENGAGED 2 weeks ago!!!!! Which is obviously huge, and we’ve been spending all our free time celebrating with friends and family (literally going to a bbq today where we'll announce it to even more of my fiancé’s aunts and uncles, lol). 

Patiently waiting for you to comeback •́︿•̀

Baby I hope everything you wanted turn out great in South Africa,but I think about your fic everydayy ,Ill wait months just for a chapter but we want to know when. Luv youuuuu

Wattpad family, I know y’all are waiting on a chapter, but...
          
          Your girl. Got. A. Job.
          !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
          
          Hallelujah!!!! After the longest interview of my entire life (90 minutes), I was offered a position. As an *attorney-realtor*. Like my mind is genuinely blown, this is better than anything I could've hoped for! Updates may be a bit slow now that I've finally secured work, but hey, if you've been considering purchasing property in South Africa? I got you. Lmaooo. <3 xxxx

          I couldn’t wait to publish this chapter! I spent aaaaall of Thursday writing this, after I was feeling really under the weather on Wednesday. There will be a part 2, but this part 1 is already my longest chapter yet. I can’t wait for you guys to read it and let me know what you think!! <3 (This is shaping up to be the longest fanfiction in the history of fanfics lmao)

3 months ago I applied for my dream job: working in Parliament. I won’t say what the exact role was, because I don’t want to dox myself. It looked incredibly hopeful, I made it to the final round of interviews, I was recommended as the top candidate to the political party I was assigned to. But unfortunately, I’ve just found out I was unsuccessful. ;/ Which is heartbreaking. This is getting so bad, I am now considering pursuing a Master’s degree, just so I don’t sit idle at home.
          
          On top of that, yesterday I was out all day celebrating my brother-in-law getting his MBA. I drank about 8 different types of champagne and got home at 1am, lol. So I’m tired, I’m hanging, I’m cold AND I’m sad. No chapter today, y’all. This is also a chapter I need to perfect, so I’m gonna have to spend some more time with it. <33

I can’t believe I’m losing sleep over a fanfiction lmao.
          
          I woke up at midnight and couldn’t fall asleep again. My mind keeps running through the chapter I’m currently writing, because I want it to be utterly perfect. Now it’s 3:30am, and I decided to just get out of bed and park my ass infront of my laptop, because clearly sleep won’t be arriving any time soon. And I’m not the type of person to sacrifice my sleep FOR ANYTHING. Good lord.

          Beware, this is a very long chapter! With a little surprise at the end. ;) So happy to be on schedule, but the next chapter might not arrive on time. I haven’t even started writing it, and I already know I want it to be one of my best chapters ever. Please enjoy today’s update and as always let me know what y'all think! <333

          Bet y’all weren’t expecting that? ;D Consider this my way of making up for my disappearance—2 chapters in one week! And yeah, I know in my last author’s note I mentioned that this chapter is a bit more traumatic and that you’re allowed to skip it... But oh my gosh, I ADORE this chapter. I know that probably doesn't matter, because readers have a habit of loving chapters the author likes the least (cough–Judenjäger–cough). But I think this chapter has serious potential for appreciation. It just gives us an insight into Romi’s motivations. And that insight might necessary for you to understand the decisions she makes at a later stage.
          
          Anyway, if you do read it, PLEASE vote and comment!! I’m so glad I could give y’all a double-update. :) From next week onwards, I’ll try to resume the regular schedule. Love y'all heaps xxx

          EEEEEKKKKK!!!! I can’t believe it. An actual update. Holy cow.
          Hitting that ‘Publish’ button feels like a straight shot of freedom, seriously. I don’t wanna say too much — see the end of the chapter for my notes. But we are so back, baby!!!
          
          Missed you all so much! xxx
