Liliana figured everyone was going to be unhappy with her decision, but she just had to do it. Blind or not, she wanted to travel the world and a different life than the one she had become accustomed to. She wasnt going to do it alone of course; she needed to find someone willing to travel with her first. Liliana was prideful about her disability at times, but she could admit to herself that traveling around the world without at least one person with her, would be stupid. The only reason she could make her way around London like she did was because she had grown up here. This area was familiar to her. Liliana couldnt see so she relied on her other senses and what she knew about the area to help her out. "If Zinnia is willing to let me walk around London without supervision, I dont understand why shes so upset about me going other places." Liliana was tired of being coddled all the time. Everyone treated her like she was some little baby who couldnt take care of herself. Especially Zinnia. It drove Liliana absolutely nuts. So she decided that she was going to get out and see the world so she could get a taste of freedom for a little while. Then she would come back and allow Zinnia to coddle her all she wanted. The smooth sound of jazz music and roaring laughter brought Zinnia to pause. She was right outside that pub she really liked. Perhaps she should stop for a quick drink. Clutching her white cane tightly, she used it to feel around for the door. It made light taps against the concrete until it finally hit the wooden door she had been searching for. Liliana didnt hesitate to reach out and open the door. The smell of warm French fries immediately made a home inside her nostrils. Oh yeah, she was definitely at the pub.
Most of the regulars that came here, knew that Liliana was blind. So they minded her space and were always sure to be careful around her. It could be annoying, but also kind at the same time. Liliana continued to use her cane to feel about the room for the little bar that she liked to sit at. Liliana thought she mustve been close when she heard the clinking of glass and a cash register being opened, but instead of her body coming into contact with the wooden surface of the bar, she felt herself collide into another human body, seemingly a man due to the large stature of the body. "Oh goodness!" Liliana used her hands to steady the person she had bumped into and herself. "I apologize. They must have changed the layout of this place since the last time I went here. I um .oh shoot where is my cane?" The place didnt change at all. Liliana was just trying to do more by herself than she probably should be in public, and she knew it. Liliana realized halfway through her conversation that during the collision, she had dropped her cane. Without that, there would be an even bigger mess possibly happening. Forgetting the stranger for a moment, she lowered herself onto the ground and began to feel around for the chilly plastic feeling to glide across her fingertips. But all she felt was dusty wood. This was so embarrassing! Liliana was glad that she couldnt see the room around her, for fear of all the eyes in the room being locked on her and her struggling form. People always seemed to pity the disabled, and pity was what Liliana detested most in this world. The thought of someone feeling bad for her, meant that they thought they were better than her. That was her opinion at least. So she preferred no pity from anyone.
