Evetta's treatment worked wonders on me; to my surprise, I'm almost completely better after just one day; I feel nothing near to the helpless being that I was yesterday.590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnC3Mdb7Pj

Evetta stayed in the guest bedroom last night; I begged her to go home, but she refused. I think she's downstairs talking to my mother.590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCp19m7SDY

Since yesterday, other things have begun to come back to me as well; it's as if a plethora of memories, some about Evetta, some about other things entirely, have just decided to rush back into my head. 590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BJ876ObJQ

I hear two knocks on my bedroom door, and I smile, knowing that it is Evetta; I know the way she knocks, and I can sense her on the other side of the door. When I look up, I see her crossing the room to sit on the bed beside me her coconut oil, beeswax and baking soda scent lingering in the air, but this time, it is accompanied by the strong smell of cocoa butter.590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFibJAtXAaV

"So I didn't get on the horse because of you," I state, cutting her off, "I got on that horse because I took your attempt to help me too far. You told me to ride a horse.

She's full on crying now, sobs shaking her body. I feel like shit for even asking her, considering the amount of pain that she is in now. I wrap my arms around her and hold her, rubbing her back in small circles.590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTnWkSSajk

After a while, I hear her sniffing, and then soft snoring. I let out a long sigh. If this is the reaction that she has today, I can only imagine the pain that she was in over a year ago, when I just fell off of the horse.590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOEJVBF7kH

I rummage through the closet, and find a small box of things at the back. At first, I think it's just a bunch of shit that I was supposed to throw out, but then, I look closer, and see what it really is.590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAipU6DfSVg

Pictures. A shitload of pictures, all of which Evetta is present in. Us in Trafalgar Square, in a restaurant having dinner, on Oxford Street, walking and holding hands; just a lot of pictures. I have no idea what they're doing here, but I plan on asking Evetta; she'd probably know. Maybe she put them there.590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ke1gx0X6o
590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSe66NWXkNa
590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31l0oELDf8
I'm so caught up in the pictures, that I almost forget that the box is there, until I look down and see something else; two little black boxes.590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20jvtyjywz
590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6aSbAI3ba
590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbALrqnGrD
With shaking hands, I pick up one of the boxes, and I open it. Inside is a little, multi faceted black ring, made of some kind of stone.590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnv5T0ukkdA

Evetta likes stone rings; she always told me that her dream wedding ring would be a black, stone one. I bought both rings; they're black agate. I had them custom made. I remember being in the jewellery store ordering them, and then picking them up. I remember the intense nervousness that I felt. 590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1iCYcrVZ2
590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKziJnZgPc
590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0s9A8zYsUE
Sure enough, when I look inside of the ring, I see "Evetta & Caleb ∞" inside of it.590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdZkGeL4dd
590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7d3aBad4Zw
590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAvuUgTKIB
When I take out the other ring, it's almost identical; same inscription, same colour, same basic design, except this one is a few sizes bigger. It's for me.590Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nslcPVqIk

I was going to propose to Evetta.
