Book 2: In the Life of Mia: College Chapter 97
Sharene had changed us from one thing to another and even flashed us forward a few months of even possible years as she had wanted me to see how things could be for us one day. She truly thought that one day I would come around and want more than what we had now had as a friendship relationship instead of anything else. Her dream was still to have children again someday and I wanted that for her very much and for all her dreams to come true. “I hope you get exactly what you want out of life….you deserve to have all your dreams come true and Madeline deserves to grow up with siblings as it is a great thing to have….ha just don’t wait 19 years to have another child. Good thing my parents are still young though since I could see it going another way if they were old…” I could not help laughing when she groaned. “Oh, please I don’t plan on waiting that long to have another child even if it’s by myself again….” She admits as she rubs her stomach as though she is picturing it all and how it’ll be.
My mother had been next to call out my name as I left to head back to my own dream stream and get some much-needed mental relaxation. “Just for a 2nd I promise not to keep you long” she promises as she lures me in with her soft tender voice. My mother had been on her own little happy cloud as our dead relatives kept their distance just as she had asked and I was surprised they would be so kind, but then again I knew they had me for everything else. “What can I do for you mother? Isn’t it good enough that I have done everything you’ve all wanted the last 3 days? I’m pretty sure I deserve to just have a complete mental shut down for the rest of…well however long I have left to relax and not be pulled all over the place…?” I asked as she looked like she was ready to have a full-on hour conversation or something. She smiled her gentle angelic smile that always had me giving into whatever she wanted “I just wanted to tell you how proud I am for what you’ve done the last 3 days…and for what it’s worth you get better and better every day growing and really showing us all that you got this whole life thing figured out. Now if you could just decide what you plan non doing for the rest of your life…” she had said what I figured she would say sooner or later.
After a good 15 mins she finally released me to go back to my dream stream and get in the time I wanted of my own without anymore discussions on what I would be doing with the rest of my life. “We can always discuss more tomorrow when it’s just the small group of us” she can’t help herself as I knew she would expect more once I was awake and everyone had gone home. “OK mother….but give me time ok…please that’s all I ask…and remember I am an adult and have been doing this adulting for along longer than you and father realize or what to admit” I smiled when she nodded in agreement and I headed back into my dream stream to settle in on my own for whatever time I had left to enjoy.
Christmas had been a great time with my family and friends who had stayed at my parents until they had to leave to go back to wherever it was, they were heading off to next. Nicholas, Jose, Catherine and Asher went to California the day after Christmas wanting me to come along but I had other things planned and on my mind. "I'll try and visit before I head back to school, but this was a great couple of days with the 4 of you... sorry it wasn't more than well hanging out here" I wave my hands around the house. They understood since they knew my parents were only doing what they thought was best for me and keeping me safe as possible. Sharene's parents decided to head back home with her to her house early that morning too after spending one last night with me. She had still a whole Christmas planned for Madeline wanting her to see her presents that she had there at the house waiting for her. "I'd love for you to come check out my new place, not as glam as yours or your parent's place but it's home..." "I'll think about it, if you want write your address down and I'll see what I can do ok" I helped them to the car with Madeline and their stuff to go back home.
Sharene's family hugged me and kissed my cheek but gave me a look that broke my heart "I know...I told you and her that I was good enough for them and I just hope that one day she finds the one who can give her everything she wants and needs because she deserves the very best" I whispered. The 4 of them were ready to say something but I stepped back letting Sharene come around to the drivers, side and get in after hugging me tightly. "I'll talk with you later, call me when you get home ok so that I don't worry" I begged and kissed the top of her head. "I wish you'd just...." "Don't, please right now I just can't" I cut her off before she could say anything else knowing it would only hurt me more. I waited until everyone was settled into the vehicles and safe before stepping back from the car letting them head out. I could feel them all wanting me and Sharene to find our ways back to one another, but I know if it were meant to be it would happen. I also knew that we would be in one another’s lives for years to come even if we did not physically see one another all the time I was always there when she needed me the most.
Sharene was looking so broken as she drove away, and I waited until she was out the driveway and, on the road, before I headed back inside to the rest of the family that was inside. My grandparents, and my aunt and uncle along with Sebastian would be staying another day which was fine, but I would be going back to my home to get some real rest. "Well I'm going to take off and head home now, but I will be back in a couple of days and spend New Year’s Eve and day with the 3 of you ok" I hugged my parents and baby Giovanni. My grandparents didn't say anything along with my aunt and uncle who just stayed to themselves even though I could feel their energy and anger building along with their thoughts running ragged in their head. I turned and faced them hugging them all before saying my final goodbyes to my parents. "Trust me your energy is loud and clear and really this is none of your choices on whether I stay or go. My mother knows very well that I can handle myself along with my father who is just pissed because I fight him the whole way through and I think he thought I'd give up. However I'm a big girl and can handle myself and if you all can't see that, well I'm sorry but it's my choice ok and I don't need anyone's permission" I frowned stepping back. I took Giovanni when my mother passed him to me "Hey little dude... sissy will be back in a couple of days I promise I just need to get back into a routine and you know that since you feed every few hours on the dot….I hope you can cut me a little slack!" I whispered with a little laugh when he grunted. I nuzzled my nose against his cheek and gave him little kisses all over his little neck since he seemed to like it.
Everyone walked me out along with Lola, and Sadami who were already in the SUV waiting for me to join them since they had my Bike already loaded up So I knew I would not be riding it home this time. I got in the back after telling everyone goodbye for the final time until I was back for the New Year. "Don't look so upset mother I'm going to be here in a couple of days, and if you need me you know what to do ok" I touched her arms before kissing her cheek. My father was a little more tough with me, "I'm not happy one bit about this and I wish you'd let Leona come along too..." "FINE... will that make you happier? I mean I don't need a babysitter to report back to you since all you have to do is ask me yourself and trust that I know what's best for me. So would you please just have faith that I'll do the right thing and that you raised a smart level headed kid who just wants to help people in any way I can" he hugged me and didn't want to let go.
