Merry Christmas to you all! I wanted to get this update posted before I go to the celebration in heaven, and I do not have much time, so I will keep it as brief as possible, though there is much to bring joy and worry. Pamela went last night to a Christmas party hosted by Christine. She feels as if a heavy weight has been lifted from her shoulders, because she is finished with her position at the school where…
Once again I have been given a gift in honor of this season, one that I did not deserve. Lubos came to find me while I was discussing my charges with Danit, and from his smile, I knew immediately what he intended. “I couldn’t possibly,” I protested. “I am being restricted by the seniors—” “Who are not unforgiving,” Danit inserted. She was smiling, too. “We placed the restriction on you for a reason, Asa’el, but that does not mean there…
My readers ask about my charges, but I do not know how to really answer them. It is a confusing time for many of them. Shannon seems fine, having embarked on a passionate fling with Thomas and pretending that Mark never even existed, but I find it impossible to believe that she is happy or that there will not be consequences for her actions. Meanwhile Mary seems to be doing better, having begun to talk more openly with Natalie and…
Many of you have asked me about Shannon. I am grateful for the concern, although I do not think she would be. The woman seems determined to ruin her own life. I really do not know how to answer the questions of how she is doing. Deep in her heart she is hurt by what Mark said, and deeper still she regrets her own behavior that led to the argument. But rather than accept this and try to make amends,…
This woman frustrates me as none of my charges ever have before. Just when I thought she was coming close to making a change, she turns her back and storms off in the opposite direction. If I didn’t know better, I would believe that she was doing this on purpose to spite me. But I’ve gotten ahead of myself. Tonight was the evening that Shannon and Mark had planned to spend together, and both of them were very excited about…
This evening Mary and Natalie were texting back and forth, and much to my surprise, a very powerful conversation took place. I believe it speaks best on its own, so I include it here. Mary: I should be in bed Natalie: Nah srsly I have a test tomorrow ugh I hate teachers who give extra tests. aren’t finals enough torture? right? I’m nervous about it. it’s making me feel sick what subject? biology ur good, u know that stuff idk…
Only time for the briefest of updates, so here we are: Brooke and Morgan are still together, but there is great tension between them. They rarely speak, preferring to send one another text messages. Brooke is hardly able to concentrate on her work, while Morgan has decided to take some time off work to think. I have been with both of them, and I am encouraged that neither of them wishes to end the relationship. They are simply unsure of…
