Moving out to California has been life changing for me. Now l'm on the plane heading to Seattle for a visit
Living with Olivia and Alex has taught me a lot over the last few months
I learned a few things about myself
Of how inconsiderate l was being towards other people's feelings, therapy has helped me get in touch with some of the demons from my past. Made me realize how l was taking my friends for granted but one friend in particular who stood by me
When others walked away, she called me out on my bullshit. I'm in a happy committed relationship with a woman, something l never saw coming. Ariel has been the light of my life, she's been supportive and she has given me the strength to make amends with the people l hurt the most, Ariel and I have been dating for a few short months. We talked about moving in together soon, she's a sports medicine training. She works with a lot with the pro athletes, helping them recover from sports related injuries. I'm still working at the bed and breakfast with Olivia
I've been taking night classes at the local college in the area, l haven't decided on a major on. Olivia suggested business management and accountant or photography, l do love taking pictures. Something l use to enjoy, l'm still trying to get use to doing things on my own. Cassandra and I spoke a few times over the phone, our relationship hasn't always been the greatest with us growing up
I only planning on being in Seattle a week. Ariel is planning flying out for moral support, as l stare out the window of the plane thinking about my life knd what I want. I didn't realize how much I struggled with my sexuality growing up, it something my therapist brought up in therapy something l ignore for years.
The plane comes to a screeching halt
As it touches down to the ground
I took a deep breath as I exited the phone. What Casey doesn't know there's been a lot of changes at new Haven children's home, they hired a few more people and they open up another children's home in new burn new York. Casey grab her luggage and carried out to her rental car, she figured she should swing by the group home first. Nobody knows she's coming to town, she's been in communication with Sasha. Since she moved to California, what Sasha fell to mentioned Lena had the babies and wasn't in town. Casey didn't wanna run into her ex boyfriends wife Annie who burnt down her condo a few months back. Casey didn't want have a another run in with her again, it scared Casey to know each. She drove the streets of Seattle seeing all the places she used to visit, Casey called Ariel to let her know she made it to her destination safety. Ariel has two year old little girl named Belle, Casey adores the child tremendously. That made her fall more in love with Ariel
The way she is with her daughter,
Casey pulls up to the new Haven children's home. She turns off the engine, Casey gathers herself before getting out the vehicle. She doesn't have to check into the hotel till 3:00pm, she looks down at her watch to see it was only twelve thirty. She gets out the car and heads up the walkway, and rings the intercom system. That wasn't there before Casey thinks to herself, new Haven children's home can I help you
Yes l'm Casey l'm here to see Shannon or Sasha Lena foster Adams Casey asks. Did you have appointment with neither the names you mention
She States, no l don't Casey responds
Let me go check to see if Dr. Shannon's available please the young woman States. Casey takes a seat on the porch, and waited patiently
Casey is that you girl Sasha says to me
I look up at the tall brown skin
She's dressed up in a black two piece pants suit with matching stilettos boots with a heel. I stood up and wait for her to come up walk way, she gives me a big hug, and pulls back
Sasha looks me up and down. Girl we miss you around here just kidding
What's been happening in your life Sasha bluntly asks. The night l called you, someone burnt down my place
I went and got a hotel room two hours away from here, but I before I called you. I drove by Lena's house to see if I could talk her. Apparently no body came to the door, so the next day I drove to California to live with my aunt and her wife, my auntie Olivia owes a bed and breakfast down there
I accidentally insulted her wife Alex by saying the wrong thing. Boy she set me straight they have too children anyway enough about me what's been going on here since I left Casey asks
Well there's been a lot of new changes that have taken place. Lena and Shannon open up another children's home in new burn new York, there's a couple of people who recently joined the family. The child psychologist Annie is out in the field for the day thank God, she gets on my nerves at times. I just do my job and stay out of her way Sasha said, that's a good thing
So what's going on with your boss lately. Casey asked Sasha, who Lena
Girl stop tripping. She's still on leave
She and her family are doing well
You know she had the babies hope and Grace, they adopted Francesca
