As I was packing I looked at all the clothes I liked and thought about getting rid of them. I could no longer imagine it. The thought of being her daughter didn’t seem so bad.
“Do you mind if I stayed like this” I asked. It seemed to catch her off guard. “I suppose not”.
“Ok”. She gave me the ring. I requested that I was Dan’s daughter but after his recent passing Veronica adopted me. Veronica and I would keep our old memories and personality.”
The house became willed to me and Veronica as executor could live here. It seemed we would be moving into my house. I would be going into grade 8.
I gave the ring back to Veronica.
I remembered my time as Dan with my daughter and the 2 memories seemed to overlap. Mostly key moments for Danielle. I remembered teachers and friends. New goals and aspirations came to mind. I remembered going to gymnastics and acting.
It seemed I was now attending a new school. I looked over at Veronica.
