I figured out last night that the best way to move on from Leo is to keep myself busy. Last night, I made up my mind to go back to college to finish my education.
My parents looked at me With an expression Which looks like a mixture of shock and surprise I could tell By their facial expression That they wanted to ask if something was wrong But I quickly shut down that thought And I told them I just really wanted to complete my education and I'll be back to visit them frequently because I'll be leaving at the Dorms just like I usually Did.

While I was waiting for my brother to come pick me up Richard decided to stay and keep me company so I wouldn't feel lonely.
When I saw His car pull up, I walked up to my brother and told him that I would like to introduce him to a friend of mine. I was too busy to notice the storm brewing in his expression. After the introduction, I told Richard goodbye and I entered the car and left with my brother.
