Twilight, her friends and I all got back to the train station and climbed aboard, sitting in a comfortable silence. It was quiet for about 5 minutes before Rainbow Dash approached me to ask about what I had said, asking about the truth in it.
"Every word I said is true, I see no one smile and everybody hating me...its... terrible." I said in response to the questioning.
"Well, I’m glad you’re here” she said before formally introducing herself, having missed the opportunity on the train there amongst the questions and explanations.
"Nice to meet you too Rainbow Dash" I replied, still acting like I hadn’t known her name.
"Everypony hopes you have a better life here in Equestria, we know your life must have been simply awful and we hope you have a way better life than what you had." She said with a kindness in her tone, I thanked her before a timid voice joined the conversation
"Jake we know this life will be better for you, everypony is caring for one another and you are no different. We will treat you the same as every other pony." The yellow Pegasus said.
"Thanks." I mumbled, a layer of water welling in my eyes, this kind of respect was what I had craved for years.
"I’m Fluttershy, it’s nice to meet you Jake." She added.
"And it’s nice to meet you too Fluttershy." I had replied still teary eyed. She had noticed.
"What’s wrong Jake?" Fluttershy asked.
"It’s this world of yours, everybody is respected. This is the first place I’ve been to where I’m actually treated with kindness. It’s what I’ve wanted for years." 
"We are glad you’re happy, we respect everypony." Applejack had said.
"I can see... it’s the best thing to see in my life." I replied
We talked the whole 3 hours it took to get back to Ponyville and everypony had introduced themselves to me, I stuck to me feigned naivety, pretending I didn’t know them. When we got back to Ponyville we went to Twilight's home where she taught me all about Equestria to answer any questions I may have possibly come up with. Our first day had ended and Twilight had gotten a bed for me to sleep on. When I woke in the morning Twilight was reading,
"Morning Twilight. How was your sleep?" I mumbled through my early morning tiredness, she returned the question asking also how I had slept.
"I had a great sleep, best sleep I’ve had in years."
"That’s great to hear."
"What are you reading?"
"The book full of the magic spells, I got to find the spell that I wanted to try earlier."
"Oh, well what can I do?"
"I do have something I want you to read."
"What is it?"
"Another book about life in Equestria, it should be very helpful."
"Sure I’ll read it."
"This should also be the last one you will need to read."
"Ok Twilight, Thank you."
It had taken about an hour to read the whole book, it consisted of information I need to know about Equestria, such as weather and major detail about how Equestria was founded. When I had finished the book I handed it back to Twilight. She looked up from the tome she was reading for long enough to mumble and enthusiastic "Great." Before lowering her gaze once more
"Did you ever find your spell?"
"Sadly I wasn’t able to find it, but its ok ill find it at some point."
There had been about a 5 minute silence as Twilight continued looking for the spell, until I broke the atmosphere, "I hope the Princess lets me stay here in Equestria, I’m already having a better life here. The reason I had a good sleep is because I knew I wouldn’t have to deal with the same thing the next day."
"I hope she does too but things happen and we can’t get our hopes up, I am glad though because you are having a better time here and I’m glad you were able to sleep in peace”.
"Yeah every day I woke up wishing I didn’t have to go to work because of the people who just make fun of me, waking up knowing your day is going to be bad just makes it worse for you to sleep."
"I know how you feel sometimes when something big is coming up I get worried and can’t sleep well because I want it to be perfect."
"Yeah it sucks, but imagine having that anxiety every day."
"I do wish you had it better in your world, maybe then it would be easier to send you back." I nodded softly in agreement, what she had said was true, though I would still be reluctant to leave this idealistic life, she continued "Well at least you’re here Jake and you will have a better time, even if it’s just for now."
"True, I’m away from the torture I was stuck in."
"Oh come on Jake it couldn’t of been all bad."
"Well it was awful, being made fun of each day… Heck I’ve even gotten beaten for no reason, so it was all bad."
"You know we would never do that, so you’re fine here. No matter what happens we will always treat you like we would expect to be treated."
"Yeah its way better here. But, Twilight..." I started hesitantly.
"Yes?"
"This is off topic but what do you usually do here in Ponyville?"
"Well as you can see I am one of Princess Celestias Students and I research the magic of friendship, I send the Princess a letter each week on what I may have learned about the said topic, I have my assistant Spike send the letter every week."
"Where is Spike?"
"He is up stairs sleeping." I nodded, the conversation about her personal life continued for a while as we sat in her immaculate library.
