So, I can?t find my first journal. Actually, I have an idea of where it is (was) and if it was where I think it was (read: clubhouse) then now it is in a bunch of small charred pieces. Therefore, I went out and purchased a new one to write in because I really should write my thoughts down so a thousand years for now I can look back and see what I was doing; a girl can?t remember everything over a thousand years after all.
I know I haven?t written anything down in months but there has been several good reasons for that. One, Amthy died. I can write that down now without bursting into tears-the main reason I never wrote it before-because now she is alive once more and with us. Two, I had my soul bond to my planet brutally cut off by my ex-fellow Guardians. Note to self: when my life in RhyDin as I now know it is over, go back ?home? and destroy anyone that participated in that act against me.
The third event in my life over the past several months deserves a whole paragraph (most likely more but I can only write about it so much) on its own. Alex returned home after another prolonged absence. His absences were starting to make me bitter, resentful of him no matter what reasoning he provided. I was very distraught too because Amthy was missing at the time and whenever I saw Alex we did not get along very well. Then Skyler was there when I stumbled into the Inn one night, bordering on dangerously exhausted because I had been out on the search for Ammy for several days without sleep. Skyler who was sympathetic, kind, and caring for the first time since I met him. Skyler who looked into my eyes and saw right through the mask of the Empress. He was there when I needed someone and Alex was not.
Throughout my holiday, I don?t know if anyone besides Skyler knows that Amthy?s death was only part of my reason for leaving, I thought about that point (that Skyler was there for me when Alex was not) over and over again despite trying my hardest to think of anything but that. Our life and relationship had been like that for far too long- when was the last time either of us was there for the other? It was unhealthy. It was sad. It was unfair.
And I?ll have to catch you, dear diary, up another time on the rest of my complicated life because I think my daughter is burning dinner in the kitchen?something in my house definitely smells like it is on fire.
