In this white walls , many small chairs , a desk full of papers , so many people waiting like me .
It is where i have an appointment with a therapist.
It has been a long , since summer i didn't come but the place didn't change .
The same wall , the same ground , sometimes the same patients .
I remember every side of the room , i didn't forget all the conversations that happened here .
I was waiting , there are three patients that came first and they are going to enter .
I spent the time reading some magazines to entertain myself because it took so long seating on that place .
The secretary that works there couldn't stop looking on my eyes and starring at me !
I don't blame her , she is new ! , she doesn't know me ! She have no idea that I am used to come here !
Finally after all this time , it is my turn , i entred by the door , i saw him staying on his seat , he told me to join him in the brown confy couch that was standing next to me so i accepted politely.
He was taking his notebook on his hands to write down like every therapist does and started bringing back my atention by saying :
- Hi Rose it is pleasure to meet you again !
- Thanks me too !
- I think we have a lot to catch up ! First i want to ask you how are you doing ?
I wasn't sure if i have to tell him the truth or saying that everything is ok
- I am fine ! ............really fine !
Then i added fast :
- ok i am laying i am not alright !
- why , is there something bad happened lately ?
- Yes ... it was terrible !
- Then tell me ! .....i am listening !
- I broke up with my boyfriend !
- it is normal , this is the first time you had a romantic relationship ! and this is the first time that you experience a breakup !
- No but it wasn't a normal one !
- What do you mean by that ?
- I am the one who is guilty that time and that is because of my fault he ditched me ...... i hurted his fellings , he saw a picture of me kissing another guy !
- But you didn't do it on purpose right ?
- No of course not , i was drank and i wasn't aware of what i was doing that night but i still fell horrible !
- Don't be hard on yourself , you know that is not your fault and he will understand that when he hear that from you !
- Yes it is not my mistake ! All that because of Amy !
- What did she do ?
- She planned all that , she has a friend named Angelia , it is the one who invited us to this unforgettable party .
After that she told Copper the boy on that picture to be so close to me , to impress me , what a villainous idea !! Can you imagine ?
- Can you tell me more about Amy ? Where did you first meet ? and how she was ?
- I knew her last year , we studied on the same school ! .
I went to her home one day , she welcomed me with open arms , she treated me nicely .
She was showing me her collection and her room , we went to a tour with the bicycles in the forest !
It was remarkable !
Amy was that cute and sweet girl , she was really kind ! But now everything changed , she would do anything to annoy me and harm me !
- i saw your eyes when you talked about her and how she was ! They were lightening , i can fell them !
- Yes she was my friend but now i can't forgive her of what she did !
She is mean and cruel to me !
- but did you ask yourself why she behaved like that ? Maybe she has something to deal with , problems , conflicts...
- No i didn't , i asked her one time but she didn't answer !
- perhaps you have to give her another chance to explain what she did !
- yes i will but it is too late for me and Josef , we will never get back together he probably hate me right now !
- Do you want to know if he really likes you ? Tell me how was your relationship between you two this two years ?
- He means a lot to me ! , he is the most incredible pearson i have ever known ! , he was a loyal friend and a good partner .
That is true that we fight sometimes but that is very commen in every couple , at the end , we can get to a solution together and continue undrestanding eatch other ...
- If he trust you and know you well , he will be comprehensive and talk to you , he just need some space to get back to what he is
- Yes i am not that kind of pearson , being patient and persisting !
- It is what you have to do and try to be calm and not think about it for a while because that will makes you more and more anxious !
- I can't stop being stressful !
- That is by practice , you will learn how to decrease your stress
- I hope , i actually don't want to worry anymore !
- Ok then i will see you at Thursday , i am glad to meet you , be on time ! ( he stood up quickly from his place , showed me the way to the door )
It was a long session ! I can't beleive that i am done talking !
In the same time , it was helpful for me to lead me to the right path !
Maybe he is right , maybe i need to give people the time to think and then act .
I have to understand them as they do the same to me , to search for the reason and not stand on my room waiting for explanation !
I am not the only one who has trouble , other can suffer inside without knowing or being able to see !
I left the place , thinking about what i can do to recognize the answeres to the questions that were stuck on my mind this hole time ! and be sure of how can i react !
