Evetta's treatment worked wonders on me; to my surprise, I'm almost completely better after just one day; I feel nothing near to the helpless being that I was yesterday.572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoYcOvSaED

Evetta stayed in the guest bedroom last night; I begged her to go home, but she refused. I think she's downstairs talking to my mother.572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6waj9IFTTv

Since yesterday, other things have begun to come back to me as well; it's as if a plethora of memories, some about Evetta, some about other things entirely, have just decided to rush back into my head. 572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxnKkWDoWu

I hear two knocks on my bedroom door, and I smile, knowing that it is Evetta; I know the way she knocks, and I can sense her on the other side of the door. When I look up, I see her crossing the room to sit on the bed beside me her coconut oil, beeswax and baking soda scent lingering in the air, but this time, it is accompanied by the strong smell of cocoa butter.572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGlFfFefTd

"So I didn't get on the horse because of you," I state, cutting her off, "I got on that horse because I took your attempt to help me too far. You told me to ride a horse.

She's full on crying now, sobs shaking her body. I feel like shit for even asking her, considering the amount of pain that she is in now. I wrap my arms around her and hold her, rubbing her back in small circles.572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmW4izHwVQ

After a while, I hear her sniffing, and then soft snoring. I let out a long sigh. If this is the reaction that she has today, I can only imagine the pain that she was in over a year ago, when I just fell off of the horse.572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1D3mfZjROq

I rummage through the closet, and find a small box of things at the back. At first, I think it's just a bunch of shit that I was supposed to throw out, but then, I look closer, and see what it really is.572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvUDVE5X9N

Pictures. A shitload of pictures, all of which Evetta is present in. Us in Trafalgar Square, in a restaurant having dinner, on Oxford Street, walking and holding hands; just a lot of pictures. I have no idea what they're doing here, but I plan on asking Evetta; she'd probably know. Maybe she put them there.572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fk6DSYgNC
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWCCP94eUe
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg04AJHH9UM
I'm so caught up in the pictures, that I almost forget that the box is there, until I look down and see something else; two little black boxes.572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYHguNKdxm
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIE2bvxr7EH
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnc94qkuUoI
With shaking hands, I pick up one of the boxes, and I open it. Inside is a little, multi faceted black ring, made of some kind of stone.572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcxn8Jnvcp

Evetta likes stone rings; she always told me that her dream wedding ring would be a black, stone one. I bought both rings; they're black agate. I had them custom made. I remember being in the jewellery store ordering them, and then picking them up. I remember the intense nervousness that I felt. 572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5o8S21Tcjz
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbKqq2we6M

Sure enough, when I look inside of the ring, I see "Evetta & Caleb ∞" inside of it.572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9gEI6ECg5
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oIAydtquX
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtiXPrWuJc
When I take out the other ring, it's almost identical; same inscription, same colour, same basic design, except this one is a few sizes bigger. It's for me.572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCKEpxR540

I was going to propose to Evetta.
