Story Time! (Holy GIFs Batman...)

Are you ready for this?


Buckle up your seat belts. 




SO.

I saw Justin's mom (Tawni) yesterday.



I don't really have a relationship with Justin's family. Justin and I were only together for about 3 months before he left and we didn't spend very much time around his family. I think they knew that Justin and I were kind of together but I have no idea what they know now. 

So when I saw her yesterday, it wasn't the easiest thing ever. It had been a super stressful day at work and I wasn't ready for that...

Here's how it went.

I was dealing with some drama that was going on in the back and I went into the store to talk to some of the other people working and when I walked in, there she was. 
Seeing her scared the living daylights out of me.
Not because she has anything against me or something like that, but because that was the first time I saw her since Justin left. It really made me miss him.

Anyway, seeing her really caught me off guard. 



I went to talk to one of my coworkers in the store and I just stood there for like 15 seconds because I was so distracted. Finally I remembered what I was doing and I talked to my coworker and booked it out of there. Heh.

I walked back to the back and well, this is basically what happened. 
Then I had to go back in and she was still there. She saw me that time and we exchanged a very quick "hello, how are you, good?, good."
Then I went to the back again. 

The only word that I could think of:

It's a good thing I got off about 5 minutes after I saw her because I completely lost it. I ran out to my car and just cried. Haha I was a wreck. I'm really hoping I reacted like that because it was such a stressful day at work and seeing her was just one thing too much...but who knows.

I got home and this was me.

But then I FaceTimed my bestest buddy and that made things much better. We talked it out, she told me a pretty funny story, and life was good again.

I still couldn't stop thinking about it though. As time went on, my view of it changed though. 

Seeing Tawni was like seeing part of Justin. It made him seem real again. 

Next time I see her or anyone else in his family, I'll probably be like this...

I really wish I would have slowed down and actually talked to her though. Oh well.

And then General Conference happened and that just makes everything better.

I super duper loved the Portuguese guys (I didn't catch his name. Whoops.) talk about making decisions. If you read my post about my decision to go to a different college than I originally planned and you're curious as to what happened with Justin or whatever, it all went good. If you haven't read it and you are really confused, read this. :)

This is what he said to me, "I'm sorry that deciding to go to the the right school for you was so hard. :/  But Jenna, you have ALL of my support. :)  I love you and I want the very best for you.  I am so happy for you!! <3 :)  I'm glad you think that BYU-I is the best place for you. :)  I am sure you made the best choice. :)  Plus, I still get to come to your concerts and recitals with lots of your favorite flowers, right? ;)  haha, I will love seeing you and the progress you've made when I get back."


It was a pretty good week. :)
