Everything just keeps falling apart before me.
First is my relationship with Felicity, next is Madeline and Ruben's departure. I lost a friend, a family and a place to live. Though I eventually found another inn to stay in for a while, it's certainly different. It doesn't feel like home anymore. What's more, I still haven't landed on any apprenticeship and I no longer have a stable source of income.
That night when my friends left me, I felt miserable and just cried myself to sleep.

"Lily, didn't I tell you to stop running in your skirt?! Everyone will see your underwear!"
I only blow raspberry before giggling at Mother's mortified face. It seems like I've caused her trouble again. Though I did think I'm being way too childish at this age, I know that freedom like this won't last long. Mother said it so herself - that I must live at the present as much as I can.
