Heyo ! How are y'all doing ? I'm actually doing good, just gotten over the little spike of adrenaline from having an argument with my stepsister over text. It started off with her asking me if I was going to attend a family reunion to celebrate my nephew's birthday. I didn't really want to go because my parents are also going to be there (I think I've talked enough about how bad my relationship with them is in this site, I do not want to say why everytime ​😭), but I also thought that it was selfish of me to refuse to go the function only to then ask if I could sleep at her place the next day because there's a high chance of me getting back home late. I didn't answer her for a few hours exactly because of this dillema, but I just eventually told her how I felt about this situation. She proceeded to tell me that my answer did make her a little angry because I'm family to my nephew, and it would be nice if I went regardless of my parents being there, which is reasonable. I then told her that I could technically go, it's just that I know it's gonna be awkward and weird for me to be present in there knowing that I wouldn't necessarily want to talk to my parents, especially with the distance I've established for months, and that it's going to be apparent, so it wouldn't be the best thing to bring in when that day is supposed to be a day of celebration. She counters with basically telling me that since I'm the one that have established that distance, it's on me for creating that awkwardness. But she also told me that her house was open to me anytime.

There is just one thing that I found a little funny though. It's that apparently, I've drawn distance for reasons unknown to them (so my parents and my step sister). I had a little cackle, because I was actually clear about why I wasn't talking to my mom when my mom confronted me, or at least, I remember being clear about the reasons. I also suspect that, since my mom and stepdad talk to each other, surely at some point after that confrontation, stepdad also has an idea on what I said to my mom. I'm not all that close to my stepsister, so either she genuinely has no idea to what extent the harm has been done, or, since stepdad also talks to her, she has an idea of what happened. Only time will tell.

I ended up telling her about how honestly funny found I that little bit, but also told her that I'm going to think a little more about my answer. As of now, there isn't something else, as I'm going to sleep at the time of writing. Hope you'll have a good day/night, and I'll see you soon
