I arrived at the destination that my phone showed me 20 minutes ago, as I went out of my car I realized that the building in front of me is the fanciest in Davis, CA. I built the strength that I have in me, I am going in. I reached the office, speaking to the assistant I learned that I needed to wait for five minutes. Feelings playing a firework party in my chest and I was still waiting, I am already registered I can't leave I need to stay strong. The assistant calling my name woke me up, as I was walking the the white and grey colored corridor those little plants hanging calmed my anxiety, the office was matching the aesthetics, I sat in the empty chair and waited again. A lady approached and sat on her chair in the opposite direction smiling at me "You are nervous, Miss Elleona." She noticed, I forgot about the talking points. "Yes, I am actually, that's why I am here." My response was quicker than I intended, "People start seeing a therapist because their problems are bigger than just shaking their feet when they are nervous." The Doctor stated, I am smiling, I am about to say everything "Well yes, my story began 10 years ago, I was a normal 17 years old teenager, just another daughter of the Wilson family. I wasn't sure how people handled bad situations, because I had the perfect life. For the past 10 years my life has flipped upside down, and I still remember each day, because I was sad and I was happy. It's hard to narrate a story without others judging you. So here is the part of my life that only few people know about it."
The Doctor interrupted " Who are these few people and what do they mean to you?"
I started with the person who hurt me the most, I spoke " Othello Blast, he was my best friend since I was 14 and he was 18, we were close even if he was older, but I was wiser. Othello is a playboy, and a jerk, to everyone except for me. I was his only female best friend, and he was proud of our friendship.
Mabel Sparkle, she was my best friend too, but here is the difference we knew each other since first grade, and till now. She was next to me more than my own sister Ivy.
Edwin Peterkin was Mabel's boyfriend back then, he was Othello's roommate and his college friend. I never thought you could grow closer to someone after one little act.
Ivy and Leroy are my siblings, Ivy is 29 now, and Leroy is 25. Ivy she was the hot girl and the stupid one and without doubts a um a slut. Leroy was the exact opposite, he was smart and the kindest.
My father Benedict is warm and affectionate, while my mother Beatrice never cared nor loved us, she was and still obsessed with makeup, just like Ivy."
"How about yourself back then?" she stopped me again, I carried on to talk a little bit about me "I was calm, They used to see me only at dinner. I loved to stay in my room playing on my cello, just me and my music." The Doctor suggested "Wouldn't it better to move to the couch you can sit comfortably" without stopping her pen from writing. I walked with her to the other side of the room, I am trying to feel comfortable as she said but I am not, not while telling this story "Now that all the story characters are kind of described I shall start?" I requested but she got through my words "But why waiting till now to talk about it?" I can't take all these questions anymore I need to leave. I stopped my heart from taking over, I responded "yes you will understand everything, I can't talk if I am being asked not to narrate willingly." She nods, now talk or leave. "My story begins in senior year, I was 17. I used to hang out with Othello a lot more that year. Mabel was jealous a bit because I used to see him every day after school, he was in fact brainy and a big help on most of my school subjects. Once in a week the four of us would go out for my sake they said because I was either in my room or Mabel's or Othello's. They used to take me somewhere loud and boring with drunk people and they called it fun. Fun to me was that cheap restaurant where we used to sit and talk for hours about everything and it made us even closer. Edwin and I were a little bit of strangers, only small talk when no one was around but I cared about that guy because he took such good care of Mabel.
I used to hate home when father was not around, and all I did was crafting something in my room or playing my cello, my sister was mean and I thought she was the most evil person because she looked at me as if I was nothing but a creep, saying that she wished I was never born, she never talked to me without blaming me or screaming at me for something silly, Leroy hated her and I tried my best to explain to him that it is just a phase and it will pass. For a 15 years old he was way smarter, I loved him more than her and more than mother as well, because mother was just another version of Ivy. My mother was and still obsessed plastic surgeries and I have never seen her without makeup. She was always on Ivy's side and I always thought about the difference between her and my father.
My father named me after his sister, she was killed at a young age, and her death remained mysterious for several months. She was his little sister, he loved her and I felt that every time he told me something about her, his face would grow sorrowful and he could not raise his teary eyes. He once said that when Ivy was born he wanted her to get his little sister's name, but he said with a puzzled face that it was not hers to have. As a matter of fact the second my father laid his eyes on me he knew that would be suitable for me. He is a police inspector, because they could not find his sister's murderer for quite a time, and he promised to never let anyone feel the same way he felt.
I learned that life would not stop no matter how big your problem is, and death is never an option, because you would run from life like a coward and killing another one is not any better. You just gotta accept what's going on and work to find a solution, hug tight who is helping you and don't let go, do whatever it takes because you have it within you, otherwise that thing would not be destined for you. Remember always that everything happens for a reason even if it might seem random or so harsh it would destroy you, just keep in mind that you can make it through, and nothing will stop you because you have the strength hiding somewhere in your soul. Life is worth it, family and friends are worth dying for, because the real ones stick in the hardest times not the easy ones. Also, family never starts nor end with blood.
That is the difference between Mabel and Ivy, I love Mabel more no doubt because I know that same as Ivy some people never change, and it is sad to hate a family member, and feel the hate back, she loved when I failed or when I had any sort of issues, she hated that I was better at school and that I am closer to father and to Leroy. She didn't even try to comfort me through the hardest times of my life. In fact she stood and laughed and I will never forget that.346Please respect copyright.PENANA8G8pvJCYfe
