Chapter 148: You Brightened My Darkness Chapter 148: You Brightened My Darkness Angelia

For a second day in a row, I skipped both school and work. It was easier skipping school but I felt terrible knowing someone else had to cover my shift. Still, I needed time to sort things out and my emotions were still all over the place. It exhausted me and I had to take care of myself before I added more to my plate. On a bright note, I actually got around to figuring out my next step yesterday like I had planned to.

It was hard because the next step wasn't something I was ready for but something I still needed to do. I needed answers and to get them, I had to talk to them. These past days made it clear that if I didn't speak to them, I would never truly move past it because I would always wonder why. It was the single most hardest choice I had made to grow up. When I was a kid, I thought that people over eighteen were adults but the older I got, the more I learned that it had nothing to do with

age and all to do with how you acted and how you handled difficult situations. I had always I becoming an adult because mature decision s**d a** no matter how beneficial they could be could be

When Andy got back yesterday from picking up my stuff, he had told me about Riccardo showing

up and then Marshall. It hurt to hear about them but at the same time, it gave me hope that some

of what we had was genuine. I mean, they must have cared at least a little if they were trying to seek me out, right? Abandoning Andy and James at the dinner table, I walked to the room for privacy. Sitting down on the bed, I finally turned off the flight mode on the phone. I had avoided my phone like the plague but it was time to get my a*** in gear and deal because if it was one thing I hadn't done these past days, it was dealing with the shit that had happened. Instead, I had fully succumbed to wallowing in self-pity so much so that Andy had sent James over while he was at work just so I couldn't wallow too much. The joke was on him, James had brought a shit ton of

ice cream and we watched some movies. The saddest movie ever made in my opinion and we cried together and if that wasn't the height of wallowing, I didn't know what was.

It was basically like pouring alcohol into a wound, it might hurt but it would keep the wound from festering. Marshall was right under Riccardo's and I clicked on it.
