Chapter 21

After standing in front of her door for too long, I went back home, and went to my room, leaving the lights off. I just lay on my side on the bed, staring off into space. I wasn't sure when I fell asleep, but the next thing I knew, I was opening my eyes and my room was brightly lit. The first thing I thought of, was what happened when I went to see Adele.

I haven't resolved anything.

Why did I even bother going to her place if I was going to give up that easily? I should have been more in-sistent. I'd made up my mind, damn it! So why did I suddenly shut down when she said she could do it on her own without me? It was the fate I'd left her to, but it wasn't something I could allow, was it?

Get off your ass and go over there, then!
