SESSION 2
I'm shaky.
At first she just lets me sit there and calm down.
Yesterday was a strange day, and I wasn't sure I wanted to see her again.
Even stranger though, was the sudden reappearance of Paul.
It was like I conjured him back, when I talked to her about him yesterday.
"After school he came and hung around me and my friends", I start reluctantly.
"He never dares to venture around us. My friends are to protective of me."
"what do you mean" she asks, pen ready.
"They threatened to kill him if he ever talked or came near me again."
She clears her throat "that's pretty serious. What did he do to deserve that"?
"…my friends love me" I try to avoid the question
"I'm sure they do. Please continue" her pen is flying across her notebook by now.
"I was afraid for him."
"Like I said before, It's hard for me to look glance at him from across the courtyard"
"He was less then a foot from me."
I was going into shock.
Hyperventilating. Feeling dizzy.
"I cannot deal with him."
I was about to walk away. More like run.
And he grabbed me arm and looked at me, his eyes, the exact same color as mine.
And summoned up all of my strength and slipped out of his grasp.
"I couldn't let him touch me."
We still stood there looking at each other.
"I had to get out of there. Now."
"You sound very scared of him" she says slowly
"not of him…of the way he makes me feel" I snap at her
