There may have been an unfortunate incident the night before last. Nothing that can not be taken care of. Nothing that has not been taken care of. I rather dislike advice from individuals in which, I did not ask this advice from.
I am very well aware of that things may imply or mean, but perhaps, I simply wished to have a new dress, regardless of how the circumstance may play out. I am paying for your services and not your advice.
The Begonia's were not fairing so well this go around. Perhaps with the added...nutrients things will be more favourable. It certainly cannot hurt.

Cosimo gifted me a necklace in which he made. It reminded me of two things. The first being the sky; just before it rains. The second was, that plans had been made to watch a sunrise together-four years ago now? And how those plans never came to be.
I am not upset. I think had the thought struck me this time last year, I would have had a different course of action and thought about it. But now, it serves to remind me of what it was I had not done and what it is I still need to, and intend on doing. I must also thank Cosimo for that insight, though he would know it not, as the plans were not made with him. Still, I am pleased we are where we are with out relationship. I did not think...I did not believe we would be in the same room again, let alone be working together most evenings. It has certainly changed things for the better.
Also, I have been reading books and watching vidoes upon the Youtube website. I feel confident enough to purchase a bow and a set of arrows. I at least know how to hold the bow, where to place the arrow and how to release said arrow. However, it does not mean I would be able to hit anything. Conundrum.

I ran into Alexandrea in the castle and she gifted me a lovely weapon. She says she has decided to try her hands at sword working. I shall have to start sharing my sword parts with Cosimo and her. I would not mind and I doubt either of them will.
The Begonias are doing splendidly. I think the added mixture has made all the difference with the soil. We shall see how the wildflowers fair, but I am hopeful.
How long has it been since I have seen the glory of the sun and all she has to offer? Too long. I spoke with the female who possessed the secrets of such a talent, again tonight. She whispered them within my ear and now I know such a thing is indeed possible and how it is so. Which means but one thing.
It is time.

I have placed Diederik in charge of 'Cutting Corners,' and Cosimo in charge of the bakery shop while I am away. The floral shop will be closed for the duration in which I am gone-there is nothing that can be done about such a thing. Emerson has vanished, just as the one before her and so, I shall close it. I cannot expect Cosimo, nor Diederik to run the store. Neither are trained for such tasks.
Part of me is relieved. A big part, that is. I will be glad for the change and to worry about less. It is a burden that I do not wish to shoulder alone anymore. I should have spoken with the Crows, but hindsight is twenty-twenty, I have read.
I hope my affairs do not take longer than a week, but it would bother me naught if it took a few more days.

Cosimo did not take the news well, but I am hoping that he will stay strong and do as I have asked of him. I have much faith in his abilities to keep the bakery up and running, while I take care of other matters at hand. Diederik knows nothing, and believes everything in which I have told him. He is far less entertaining than Elise was, but far more easier to get along with.
Please, Cosimo. Remain steadfast to the plan. I simply do not have the time to figure out another plan. I shall be back before one even recognizes my absence.

I do not know how it happened. Strategy, perhaps. But, Cosimo will be pleased that I shall not be away for a week or so.
I defied the odds and now they know. Do not try and take what is mine.

My wounds have mostly healed. What remains are just bruises and some reddened skin. I suspect after another night or so, all will be as it once was. Even if Charles was not pleased. I suppose I cannot blame him, mayhaps I would find irritation in helping clean up a mess after the fact.
I find myself in disbelief of it all still, as does Cosimo. He was most pleased and kind at the same time. He claims that I am unstoppable, but I think he forgets that at one point...I had ceased to exist within these realms. That I had been unstoppable at one point.
I saw an advertisement of sorts upon the Youtube. It was about beaches in Italy. They were so...clear. So....transparent. I told Cosimo that I wish to travel there to see them, and as to not leave him out of anything, I invited him with his beloved to join me on my trip. He accepted and said he would speak with her and bring his Athena. It would be nice to see her in an element that is...relaxed. Different. I know not when we will go, but I look forward to it. This is not one of those vacations in which I am searching for something that is not able to be found. This one is different. Unlike the other trips in the last two years. I have found what it is I was looking for all this time. Who would have thought that it was right here, in this very city, all this time? It is...amusing. The events that bring forth a glimpse of a different perspective, or one that has been missing all this time.

I have secured a teacher in regards to my ad for learning the cello. We begin next week, and I am most looking forward to it.
My wounds have healed, thanks to the assistance of Charles. I sent him a thank you, but perhaps that was an error on my part. It cannot be undone or unwritten, but such things will not be entertained again. It is for the best.
I saw him again. It was an accidental encounter. I often enjoy our conversations. I know I should not meddle with human affairs, yet...I seem to be having great difficult with that ideology currently. I both envy and despise his humanity and mortality, which is the conundrum. Along with his kinship to the earth.
So, what does one do?

There is a very tall, odd man running around town talking about pheromones. I have encountered him thrice, I believe and each time that is the topic of conversation. Not that it is much of a conversation, he says what is upon his mind and is usually gone before I can say a single word. I have many thoughts upon the subject, but I wonder why it interests him so. Is he a scientist? Is he looking for a reaction? I cannot even begin to fathom such a thing.
I sold something this evening that was, once upon a time...so very precious. It makes little sense to keep such a thing, as I have not worn it in some time. It was long overdue, in truth. I know not why I kept it for as long as I had.

A woman by the name of Meara Quartermaine has agreed to teach me the basics of how to play the cello. I look forward to it immensely, it will take up some of my 'free time' during the week as she has agreed to meet with me a few times during the week. She seems nice and I believe she is a relation to Alexandrea, if I recall right. And so, she must be lovely.
I was looking for sheet music from the Opera and stumbled upon a few pieces online. I had thought to teach Doc how to play something simple, but I know not if he even would want to learn. Anyways, I found a fortunate, yet unexpected find. I am simply in love with the works of a polish man by the name of Abel Korzeniowski. I listened to all of his pieces for movies, television programs, and other things, last night. Table For Two is one of my favourites. Charms as well-but they are all truly marvelous.
I have to remember this: La Dame aux Camélias. There is a piece called 'letters' in this ballet by him. If ever there was this production near Harper Rock, I would go without hesitation. I know not if I am a fan of ballet, but I would simply go just to listen to the piece be preformed alone.
I now know what to do.
I am trying to understand why it is people do the things in which they do. And say the things in which they say. Cosimo has thoughts on the latter, as for the former. I appreciated the necklace, but it almost feels like a bribe of sorts. It begs me to wonder if Charles thinks himself unworthy of spending any length of time with, unless there is a 'gift' in it. It is doubtful, but the next time we encounter the other, if there is any sign of a gift, I will be rejecting it. He needs not to buy my time with anything. He is but one of two, or three friends in which I have in the city and I never expect anything but the pleasure of their company.
Speaking of Cosimo, he has gifted me perhaps the most thoughtful gift any of my childre has gifted me. He worries I will never leave the tank, but I do not think that possible. I have businesses to run, and blood to sustain me. Perhaps some modifications can be made to the tank...white noise, perhaps? To keep the call of the Vathia realms from reaching my mind. One should study the phenomenon of the vathia and its full capabilities. If such a thing were possible. Regardless, denying the access of most sensory 'issues' so to speak, will help me greatly.
