OBSESSION
Chapter 1
She knew it sounded stupid. She herself even thought it was stupid. These things only happened in soap operas. Not in real life. If anyone heard her they would think that she was naïve and a hopeless romantic, maybe even crazy.
She had gotten over him a few years after she left Hillwood. It was hard in the beginning but she had managed. She finally comprehended that it was just a crush, a very big one but still just a childhood crush.
She hadn't expected her obsession to come back once she saw his picture on a newspaper. It was pitiful really; all it took was one picture for her to start wondering about him everyday, every hour, and every minute. She still remembered the headline clearly:
"Young archeologist finds Aztec tombs"
So he had decided to follow his parent's footsteps. She knew that his career made him feel close to his parents the minute she had laid eyes on that picture. He looked genially happy and the fact that he was happy made her feel immensely happy too.
It had been two weeks ever since she saw the newspaper. Everyday she would look everywhere she could for news updates. She read every article about him at least three times. She was obsessed.
Finally deciding that it was just too much for her to handle and to try to not go insane she decided to look for help. So she went to see a therapist.
This was a bad idea, because the therapist recommended her to go and seek out this man. Why? The therapists answer was that she would realize that he was not all what she thought he would be and then she would be disillusioned; therefore her obsession with him would end.
It sounded like a good idea. She found out that he would be going back to his hometown after the dig was finished. So now here she was, Helga G. Pataki driving towards a town she had left so many years ago.
