After the long break …SHE HAS RETURNED!!! Sorry I couldn't get this up sooner. I got sick with a stomach flu '(. So not fun! But this one's just a filler chapter with no real dialogue. The real chapter goes up in three days…. Anyways, enough about me here's chapter 5 of THAT girl…..
The rest of that week went smoothly. Edward and I get along very well. However, as I learned more about Edward Masen through this interviewing project, the more I learned how utterly flawless he was. And the more I noticed how great my numerous flaws were.
I seem so insignificant beside him and it only makes me wonder how others see me whenever I am near him. I have never had such a trivial or petty thought before. The things he does to me! I don't even understand these things but I can feel an overwhelming of emotion whenever I think of him. I feel I may be going crazy!
I will probably never fully understand the magnitude of emotion that I feel when I see him, and the magnitude of loneliness I feel when he's away. At seventeen I may have been married – my former friend Martha got engaged last summer and moved to New York with her fiancé. However, my mother and I both agreed that it would be in my best interest (and the best interest of my children if I wanted them to be intelligent) that I finish schooling and maybe go to a college. My father is also in favor of that idea.
Although, whatever true thoughts I have on the matter are not of any consequence where my parents are involved. I remember the stories of princesses and glass slippers and magic carpets and having wishes granted from my childhood and my entire life my mother's tried to convince me that many times situations do not work out like in fairy tales.
I know that is true, but as of late I feel as though my prince has come, only I'm still dressed as the scullery maid and utterly invisible. If only it was as simple as putting on the right shoe to make everything easier.
But I will not complain. Not as long as I am still alive and well. My life would be wasted away by now if I took the time to complain about every little thing.
But never mind these wandering thoughts of mind. Seeing as it is the end of the school day and snowing rather hard – close to a blizzard in fact – I'd best hurry off home. Angela isn't coming with me today, she is going sledding with Ben. But I wonder if she starts to feel the same was I do around Edward when she's with Benjamin. My mother says love is a great thing once you find it…I just can't quite agree with her though. I think it's much too confusing!
Next one up in three days like I said. It WILL be longer. This one is only about 400-500 words. Well…till next time folks:D
