For Context I Collect Dolls - Blog Posts

Reminds me of the time when I studied for a full week in honor of Athena and was jokingly like, "I should get a reward!"

The next day I got a doll I wanted for literal years and had dreams about.

A few days ago I was joking about deserving a “Mother’s day present” because I took care of toddlers age 2-4 years old during my internship at Daycare, that same day I ordered a new candle for my beloved.

Me (Today): *Came home from picking up his candle from the pick up point in my street* Okay let’s see.

As I open the box and unwrap the candle, my face turns deadpan as I look at the candle in my hand.

Me: Trying to bite back a smile and a giggle.

It’s wrapped in gift wrapping and has a ribbon and sticker on it that says “Best mum ever!”.

Apollo: Beaming, giving off that “You asked and I delivered” energy.

I turn away from Apollo’s altar slowly, trying to be as serious as possible and hiding my shy smile.

Me: Okay, I see. I get it now, You got jokes.

So eventually I cut out the part with the ribbon and sticker and placed it on his altar (｡>﹏<) ♡
