Episode 7

Melinda.....

I wake up the next morning, with a terrible headache, I open my eyes and I'm in my room, I don't even remember how I got here, I force myself to remember and little flashes of what happened the night before invade my mind and my heart sinks even deeper within my chest. After Heitor left I just remember screaming and crying, my family tried to calm me down but I blacked out and someone brought me to my room and here I am.

I try to get up but it's hard, my whole body aches as if a tractor had run over me over and over again, unfortunately these are the symptoms of rejection and I'll have to get used to them, I just hope that one day it will pass or at least lessen....

I force myself to get up, I can't stay in bed forever, I go to the bathroom, take a shower and do my morning hygiene, put on some loose clothes and go downstairs.... I arrive in the kitchen, my family is already at the table having breakfast, Brad gets up and comes to hug me and kisses the top of my head

Brad - Good morning Princess, how are you feeling?

Melinda - Apart from the pain all over my body, I think I'm fine, but you're already here so early?

Brad - And who said I left lol

Katarine - Brad refused to leave and slept on your bedroom couch

Brad - I couldn't leave you like that

I hug Brad tighter and bury my head in his chest

Melinda - I wish it were you

Brad - Me too princess, but if you want we can work this out

Melinda - When I'm feeling better we'll talk about it ok?

Brad - Ok

I sit down on the chair and with the help of Brad and my family I managed to push something down my throat which was no easy task. To lighten the mood Lara, who obviously didn't go home lol, started asking about college plans, she knows that talking about this makes me happy, I'm going to miss my friend so much.

After breakfast Brad and I started to expedite our move, I need to get out of here as soon as possible, being close to my mate even after rejection could ruin everything.

I contacted Dona Agatha, an old lady who owns a boarding house that rents rooms to students, the rent is good and includes meals which will make our lives a lot easier, since we'll be working and studying. But what few people know is that Dona Agatha is a Witch, it was Brad's friend, Dexter who made our necklaces, who pointed her boarding house out to us and of course we contacted her immediately, even without knowing if we would actually get permission, crazy huh? But thankfully we had already seen everything, otherwise now we would be lost.... We arranged with her that we would arrive there tomorrow, the sooner the better...

After sorting everything out Brad went home to pack his things and I'm in my room with mom and Lara packing my bags, I never thought it would be so hard, I turn around and drop a few tears, mom is speechless. My going to college should be something happy and not because of such a sad circumstance.

......The day dragged on, the pains didn't subside at all, every hour that passes I feel weaker, without spirit as if my life had no meaning, of course I'm trying to stay strong, I don't want my family worried about me more than they already are, so I'm just trying not to fall apart.... I've finished packing my things, I've had a shower and I'm getting ready for bed, tomorrow will be a busy day and I need to be well to start a new stage of my life..
