It had a lot to do with the fight I got into with our "group" last year. It was stupid, I can't even explain what it was about, but it got me "permanently uninvited." So to add insult to injury, the whole group of people I spent time with last year was also missing from my life.
Well last night, Brittany and I went to their house just to say hi because we were partying just a few houses up the street. It was the best thing we could have done. We were welcomed back with open arms, smiles, and a lot of forgiveness. The guy who kicked me out and I got a chance to talk alone. We talked about the fight, Rachel, and regrets. It was so amazing, because I know it's the place and the people I should've been hanging out with all along, but I was too stubborn to try without a personal invite. And I know Rachel would be so happy to see us all talking again.
I know that some of the looks I got last night were pity, but they were with good intentions, so it's okay. I'm just happy that I'm no longer excluded from people who's company I enjoyed so much before. I'm actually crying as I write this, but I smile every time I look at the picture we got last night. It really shows how happy we were to see each other again. Can't fake smiles like those, haha.
