Chapter 241

• I hate when I think like this, but it just comes automatically. Going from a place of basically poverty to very high privilege was never going to be easy, but doing it by falling in love makes it even harder. Growing up, I had to work two part time jobs while going to school to make sure we made ends meet with my mum and I. Now look at where I am, I feel like I've kidnapped someone else's life. It's all just a learning curve, I'll figure out how to make my peace with it all eventually. I should ask Poppy , when she first started dating Adan he took heron luxurious trips, dressed her in designer clothes and put her up in an expensive apartment, and she fit in so perfectly. She's a very different person than I am, but I'm not going anywhere anytime soon so I better start getting used to things this way.
