THE OTHER SIDE OF ME

KARA | KAREN

Jan. 01 2023

Well, we're finally going to meet up with Brandon. It's about time, since we've been friends with the kid for so many years. Okay, let me see... what's new that I need to tell you... well, mostly just been writing Brandon, as you know. The letters are in the drawer their usually in if you wanted to read them. You can write him back later, Kar. Let me talk to him for now, please? We don't want to startle him.

Other than that, work was pretty standard today so I don't have that much to report. Have a good night, don't give us a black eye again.


It's amazing that you have ANY FUN AT ALL. Gods, Karen, you are probably the most boring person I've ever met. I mean, I guess I have you to thank for looking up those martial arts courses for us... whatever. Whateverrrr.

Tonight I went to this club called CLUB INDIGO. We haven't been there before! It was fun. Look out for an owl from a guy named Carter and a girl named... oh sh*t, I don't remember her name!!! Either way, don't scare them away because they are nice! Don't worry, you didn't sleep with any of them. I have some standards.

Speaking of, can we get an SO already??? I'M BOOORREDD.

The months in Norway

I wish that you would just let me have a single day to myself, Kara. The older we get the more you try to jump in when I'm in the middle of something. It's giving my migraines, honestly, and I'm not sure if it's really healthy for us to just take over without the other ones permission. If I start bleeding out my nose because of these headaches then you'll have a lot to answer for. Have I ever encroached on you doing something? Aside from maybe, twice in the last year? Just get it together.


Okay, listen, I understand that sharing this precious body is hard for you. I get it. You're so smart and clever, maybe you should think of a way to separate us. Oh wait, you're already trying to. Don't think I don't notice the things you read and do, Karen. You can't keep secrets from me.

Instead of fighting and arguing over this, why don't we just try to make it work. You barely have given me anything since we got here, why do you think I involuntarily try to break free? If you were just fair with our time then this wouldn't happen.

I know that you were here first, that you're the owner of this place and I'm just the renter, I get it. You've made that clear. But you could at least try to be giving with me. I know you've seen this as a problem our whole life but... can't you try to see it as a blessing instead of a burden? Somehow?

You're right, of course. I should try and be more sensitive. Of course I should try and see the bright side. But just... now, being here without anyone but each other, I feel like I'm more aware of you than ever, and that's scary. I think, somehow, I've always kept busy enough to not dwell on the buzzing in the back of my head... I guess we have to learn to live with each other.

Exactly! And you can't live if you're regretting your life and trying to change things you can't. It's best to just find the good in it. And I promise you, I'm good. I'm a good thing in your life. So, stop treating me like a burden and just love me, you know? That's all I ask. I mean, I'm sure I'll ask for more... but for now, that's all I ask.

Well the carnival was fun. It was good to see Brandon. We should write him more.

IT WASSSSSS. And I love Brandon.

March

We're having yes with Poet next week. Don't do anything stupid if you see him.

Actually, I just saw your little boyfriend! Kidding, I'm kidding. I know he's not your boyfriend. . Don't worry, he doesn't think this Tea Party is a date, I told him that you probably didn't think it was a date. He also said that I didn't do anything stupid while we were hanging out so you should be proud! We just saw each other right outside of Gringotts and had a little splash in the puddles. It's pouring rain. By the way, did you do a waterproof charm on the book? Because dang son it is in really good shape! You think of everything, don't you? Anyway, I just wanted to give you the heads up, that Poe and I are going dancing next week. Isn't is incredibly adorable? You guys will have fun at tea!

I wanted to let you know that for the rest of the night, I fairly well behaved myself. I went out for drinks with some friends, and was home before 4 a.m. That's probably why you are so tired right now, my apologies. And don't mind the mess in the living room I will clean it up when it is my turn tonight. And if Cassidy is still asleep on the couch just tap her shoulder and she'll get out of your way. Anyway, much kisses and love, have a great day at work!
