087: Better

It's good to be back at work. I think the Library missed me. I felt like it sort of followed me around all day, which I know sounds silly, but everytime I turned around something it knew I would like was right there.

I'm up here on the roof now, enjoying the air and the freedom and the not being afraid.

Everything seems so much more clear. It's kind of interesting.

Thomas...? I'm so sorry. I know I said I wouldn't with anyone else so we could see what happened, but I thought it was - by the time I realized... I... it was too late. I didn't mean to.

That's true, but also it makes you stronger to face bad things.

If you look at them and don't just hide them away and pretend they aren't real.

That's how you have to do it, eventually a person has to face the bad things. I'd love to be able to hide from them forever though.

It's too bad life can't just be happy isn't it? I mean there are happy times of course but I wish there were more of those to balance out the sad ones.

That would be nice.

But I've been happier here than I've ever been.

That's good! At least this place is good for something. You deserve some happiness.

You think so?

I don't know about deserve, but I like it.

[identity profile] phasedcat.livejournal.com 2009-05-05 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
Of course you do. You shouldn't be so hard on yourself.

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2009-05-05 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I think everyone deserves to be happy, so in that sense...

But I'm not anything special, Kitty. I'm just me.

Not everyone does, everyone deserves the chance though.

The fact that you're you makes you special.

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2009-05-05 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
Doesn't that make everyone special?

[identity profile] phasedcat.livejournal.com 2009-05-05 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
If you looked at it from a literal standpoint then yes, but what I meant was the fact that your you and have your personality makes you special. You're honest, you care about people, you're kind to people, and that makes you a good person. That's special.

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2009-05-05 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
I think you're really nice and special too.

[identity profile] phasedcat.livejournal.com 2009-05-05 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
Well, thank you. That's nice of you to say.

[identity profile] phasedcat.livejournal.com 2009-05-05 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you. I appreciate the compliment.
