It was enough

All that time I was looking for an exit. I was trying to escape, to leave that place and leave that universe, but for some reason I couldn't leave that room.

I was waiting for him to come. I was hoping that he would notice that I hadn't returned with him. But he never did, he never came and I knew that it was because he was living a lie with someone who wasn't me but my mind made up a different story, a story were Peter couldn't find the way to be back here again without my help, however I was fooling myself.

But I managed to escape and my nightmare began.

Everything was different, I didn't know if that taxi driver was going to sue me despite my threat, Massive Dinamics never existed and my way back home was covered in amber. But then something happened that scared the hell out of me; my shot was perfect and I knew where I had to go.

Though I didn't know where I was going, I knew how to enter to the house, but whose house?

It was a colorful place with lots of photographs over the chimney, and there was me. I was with my mom, she looked older but it was her, with her kind eyes and her lips, those who used to kiss my forehead before bed. My entire world fell apart.

"I'm not your daughter" I told her and it felt like I was lying to her, like I was denying something that was mine. And after I told her something that came to my mind she hugged me again and in that moment, I gave up.

I was there, holding my mom again, smelling her perfume, feeling her heart against my chest and her hands stroking my hair; how I wasn't going to give up? It was she, there, with me, again!

And since that moment my life turned into a lie. I was lying to myself, but I didn't care. Life was better there. My mother was still alive, also Charlie. I had a loyal partner and a boyfriend who loved me. Everything was hurting less.

I lied to myself one more time and that was enough. It was enough to not want to return where I belong because in that moment I belonged to Over There.

I hope you like it. Spanish is my native tongue, that's why I have an awful grammar. (:
