Chapter 17: First Day Home

I woke up to a somewhat familiar smell. I opened my eyes to see myself in somepony else's bed. It had clock and hourglass designs and the pillow was a print of the same design. The design was plastered on a navy blue color. I saw the glass panes at the front of the room on either side of the door, each emitting a dim light. I immediately remember what had happen the night before and sighed of relief.

I got up after a few moments and brushed my mane. It lay flat for a moment before it popped back to its natural state. I stretched my wings out to the full extent and bent over to do my usual morning stretches.

I remembered one thing that Doctor Stallinburg told me, "You can't work at the post office for a few weeks, at least not the delivery. It is to be sure that you are recovered entirely and that you are capable to doing tasks like that again." I grunted as I had half gotten my uniform on. I took it off sadly and put it in my bag again. I looked at the calendar.

Grand Galloping Gala: 5-12

I smiled remembering that Doc and I were planning on going. Maybe I'd tell him how I felt there. If he didn't say anything at least. Then I remembered something. "Oh...my....I didn't think about this! He's already kissed me when I woke up!" I said to myself. I turned to face opposite of what I was facing previously. "He may have done that because he was just being excited!"

"But he's hugged me so many times! And you can't say that that one hug was a normal friendship hug either!"

"But it was. He was just being a bit emotional and dramatic. He doesn't know you like him and you don't know either!"

I heard three ponies walk in on my argument with myself. Fortunately the Doctor never heard the rest of it, but he heard just the muffled yells through the walls. He probably thought I was insane! I honestly felt like I was as I was being split apart, my optimism and negativity butting heads in my mind. I looked over at them and tilted me head. "What?"

"N-nothing mom. You were just umm..arguing with yourself?" Dinky said.
