Where Do I Belong Book Novels & Stories

Alaric noticed it too because he said over breakfast, "You look different this year." "Different how?" I said. "As you belong here," he said. "Not that you didn't before, but before you were deciding whether to belong and now you just do." I thought about that while I walked to my lecture and decided he was right. Belonging somewhere you had chosen rather than somewhere you had been placed felt completely different and I was still getting used to that distinction.

"What does that feel like?" I consider the question honestly, which is what Sophia always deserves. "It feels like finding out that the story of your whole life has a chapter at the beginning you weren't given access to," I say. "And the chapter explains some things that never made sense, and that is a relief in a strange way, even though the explanation is also terrible." I pause. "I spent three years inside a family that treated me as though I didn't belong there. And it turns out I belonged there in a way that was more fundamental than any of them wanted to acknowledge. There is something almost — clarifying about that. Even when it's devastating."

As strange as it may be, I feel that I should get to know him a little more. I left the bathroom and put on the same long dress and with the towel I tried to dry my hair little by little. The best I could do was leave it a little damp, but I went out anyway in search of answers.

That's what I wanted to see on his face. "No, we are not fighting, we did not have any arguments. And yes, we are still together. It's just… He didn't say anything but I observed him. He wants to stay here. He does not want to go back to Curtis. While I feel like I belong to that place. Like it is a world where I truly belong. Where people don't judge me or call me a psychopath." I honestly replied to my brother in a low tone. I didn't want to upset him. I knew the first thing he would think about was that I was leaving him. But that was not true. I was just trying my best to belong somewhere. All my life I was trying to belong somewhere. And Curtis was actually the place where I truly belon

"And it’s not about other people. It’s me. There’s this feeling of being displaced I can’t shake off no matter what I try." His words hit to close to him. She knew what it felt. She didn’t belong on earth or Hell. There was no real place for somebody like her. "Like where do you belong? Are you even able to?" she added. He nodded. "I have friends but I’ve never really belonged to anything. They don’t get me fully. They’ll get an inch or two but I don’t let them get further." "It’s not safe. If they get any closer they could hurt you."

I looked down at my hands. “I spent my whole life believing I didn’t belong anywhere.” My voice came out quieter than I’d intended. “And now…” I laughed softly. “I’m apparently part of a people I didn’t even know existed.” Draven’s hand found mine beneath the table. His fingers intertwined with mine without a word. Gregory watched the exchange before speaking. “You’ve spent your life believing you were alone.”

‘There will never be a place where you belong to. As much as she hated the thought, she had to admit that it was true. It was why she always had that heavy lump stuck in her chest. She loved Noah, Bernard, Valaries, and everyone here. But, she never felt that she could belong. But now that she thought about it, she never tried to belong in the first place.

To belong somewhere. You didn't belong just to your husband or lover. You can belong anywhere you want if you let yourself believe that you deserve better. Life didn't end from one mistake. Humans made mistakes—sometimes horrible ones. They pay for them day and night, wishing they had chosen something else. It was all about choices.

And now, in a foreign land, I was still somehow the one who was constantly rejected and criticized. It seemed like I was always fighting alone, and all I wanted was to find a place to belong. I sighed, putting my pen down and reaching down to cup my stomach. “I don’t know where I belong, but I know that I belong here with you.” I murmured, gently stroking my stomach over my shirt. For the sake of my baby, I would face every obstacle that came my way with nothing but courage. I knew I had to. “Keep ‘em coming, fellas!”

But I must decide how much of myself I can spend before nothing remains. She stared at the words until they blurred. Outside, Ajegunle throbbed with noise—generators buzzing, radios clashing, children shouting. Inside, silence pressed heavy, not as rejection this time, but as a question.
