Finally here, alone with nothing but the school in front of me and the cold early morning air nipping at the back of my neck. Eight months of social training and learning eight years worth of education leading up to this one moment. This is the first time since we started living together that me and Daniel have been more than 100yards from each other. *if daniel_decker <40 It feels like a big weight has been lifted from my shoulder. Now that I think of it, this is the first time since I was a little kid that I didn't have to worry about someone watching my every move; not that things were much better previous to that. Of course there was still the cuff around my leg, but it was an interesting sensation. *if (daniel_decker =40) or ((daniel_decker =50) and (daniel_decker_rom =0)) I feel somewhat vulnerable, being in the strange open world without my guardian to watch out for me and talk to people that I came across. There's a freedom to it, but a fear of the unknown as well. It's an interesting sensation. *if daniel_decker_rom =10 I feel vulnerable without Daniel there to watch my back and make sure nothing bad happened. I'm sure I can survive, I've been doing it all my life, but even so; being without my lifeline in this country is an...interesting sensation. *if daniel_decker <50 When Daniel told me to head straight to the principal's office I mostly blew him off. That was mainly because... *choice #I was planning to go anyway.
