The next day i followed up my routine. I was just feeling low with the memories playing in my head. I wanted to be home in bed daydreaming about Valentina

I mean..

I heard a knock and muttered a come in before a woman walked in. She was probably in her 30s. I gestured for her to sit

"Hello I'm Tina, applying for the new position. We talked over the phone"

"Dr Annabelle. Nice to meet you."

"It's really my pleasure" she pulled out her file

"Oh that's very useless to me. I will dig around every detail about you if I'm going to hire you. First I want you to give me a session. If I was a patient for the first time"

"Oh ok. Uh" she sat at a certain angle and looked at me before pulling out her phone

"What's the phone for?"

"Writing while the patients are talking can annoy or stir a negative emotion in them so i plan on recording every session then write it down"

You are hired

"Ok let's begin" i said completely changing my demeanor

"So doctor Annabelle how are you feeling?"

"Fine" my voice was cold and I wanted to test how she will break their walls down

"Okay. How do you feel about being here?"

"Angry."

"Why is that?"

"Because I do not need therapy. I'm perfectly fine"

"Okay. Your parents brought you here, why do you think they did that"

"I don't know because they want a perfect daughter and I'm not perfect"

"They said that?"

"No, stop asking me stupid questions"

"Sure. I just thought that if you tell me the reason you are really here and we work together, if i see that you are really fine i can tell your parents and you won't have to come"

"Oh, I'm sorry. Uh I think they brought me here because of the panic attacks i have been having recently and I also have not been eating so they are worried about me"

I stayed in character using experience from my previous patients

"Can you tell me about what's going. Just yourown truth"

"Y..yeah. I think. Will you tell my parents?"

"Whatever we talk about here will stay between us unless you are a danger to yourself or others or you are in danger"

"O..okay can I tell you next time I come?"

"Next time? You want to come back?"

"I don't know, i guess. I don't really have a choice"

"I look forward to seeing you here. So any girlfriends or boyfriends?" She said with a playful smirk

"No, maybe a girlfriend"

"It's a situation then?"

Okay i was going to test what anyone would think

"We are secretly dating. She is my teacher"  i watched her eyes get this glint

"A hot catch! Well damn. As much as I'm excited i must ask?"

"What?"

"Do you want what you have with her, do you feel uncomfortable in anyway. Is she forcing you to do anything you are not ready for?"
