'Change is the only constant thing in life'

I've repeated this particular saying in my head a billion times in the past week.
So much has changed and so many more things are bound to as time goes on.

Paul and I have been working on setting up his clinic and it has been a total adventure. Stressful but still an adventure. The good the bad and the in-between, it's all worth it in the end.

When work fully starts it means I can't continue transporting myself between two whole cities just to get to work like I've been doing since the process of getting things in order.
Which means I have to move, which is actually one of the biggest change in my life at the moment. I'll be lying if I said I wasn't scared of this change but that doesn't mean I'm going to back out now.

This is a beautuful opportunity and I won't miss out on it because I'm scared of moving and starting a new life.
If I really think of it, this city has nothing more for me.
My sister is now in the university and she stays inside the school's campus.
My best friend Vivian is married and now lives with her husband at third city
The only reason David is usually around is because his family house is here but asides that he's also not regular here.
And as for Ana, she basically lives everywhere.

Speaking of change, my relationship with Ana also changed; we're back to being friends but obviously things aren't as easy going as they were in the beginning. She always has her guard up with me and we only ever interact when all four of us are together. I'm guessing with time, that will also change.

"Are you ready?" Paul asks from outside. He's already waiting for me by the car.

Paul is a good person, and sometimes I wonder if he's doing all these things because he's interested in me.

I am taking a break from men.
The only man in my life that seemed to be different is my brother. And with all the ladies in my life who seemed to have terrible partners, it's more than enough sign from the universe for me to stay single, if you ask me.

"All set" I tell him heading out with my things. 

I don't even realize I'm still standing and looking at my house until I hear Paul again "you have to actually get in the car to go, you know right?" He's teasing

I laugh getting into the passenger seat "I've never moved my whole life. Grew up here stayed here" I tell him as we begin to drive

"At least you weren't born here"

"Wait, you were born here?" I ask

"My entire life is here. My family, my school, my friends, work is the only thing I chose to let me move and for good reason too. I really need to start breathing new air"

I do need to start breathing new air.

My phone rings before I can give a response to Paul. It's CJ.

"Hello" I say after answering the call.

CJ and I have become more than just therapist and patient. He's even offered several times to introduce me to someone else who can be my therapist if I still need one. He claims that now we're friends he doesn't feel comfortable 'working' with me.

CJ changed my life. He may have not done more than tell me a couple of things and taught me a couple of more things but he really influenced me and changed me.
I feel like such a different person than I was months ago. I understand that it's his job but I still can't help but be grateful I met him. Grateful my brother made me meet him.

"Hey, Dani. Just calling to make sure you've not chickened out and  locked yourself in your room" I can't see him but I can imagine the smile on his face as he teases me and his dimple deepening with each smile

I try to keep a straight face but i cant help the smile already forming. "As a matter of fact, I'm already on my way there"

"I'm proud of you" The way he continually tells me how proud he is of me, how far I've gone, and he doesn't just say it, he makes me believe it.

"I'm proud of me too" I can't help the smile forming on my face.

"Text me when you're there, okay?"

"Okay"

.

THE ENDDDD!
