Shelly's POV
"Prisoner 7012, you have a visitor." The guard says, he escorts me from my cell to the interview room. My weekly visitor is already sitting there, with her fake preppy smile and little notebook and pen.
"Hello, Shelly." She greets me.
"Dr. Nixon." I say in response.
"Shelly, you know you can call me Francine."
…
"How are you feeling today?" She asks me like she actually is concerned for my wellbeing, greedy fakers…
"You keep asking me and you never tell me why you care."
"Because I do."
"Pssh, you're only here because my mom paid you to."
"Shelly, you don't get paid for volunteering. I will admit, I usually only do these sessions for juvies but that doesn't mean I don't want to help you, Shelly."
"Hmph."
"How about we just talk?"
"About?"
"About you and me, let's just get to know each other."
"If that will make you leave sooner."
"What are your hobbies, Shelly?"
"Listening to music, I listen to Lorde. My mom still sends me a few of her CDs"
"Lorde?" She seems shocked. "I'm surprised people still listen to her after that incident with her on stage rubbing her-"
"I know what she did, but she's always been a childhood idol to me." I cut her off, , I guess I shouldn't be surprised but no one talks about my hero like that.
She nods and writes some more in that notebook, "What was your childhood like?"
"Awful."
"Awful?" She looks at me and raises an eyebrow.
"Yeah, awful." I boil up at the thought of those memories. "Everyone in my family's an idiot, my dad was drunk and retarded, and my grandpa just wanted to die and my brother was a turd."
"What about your mom?"
"She was selfish, she only cared about dad or Stan. She never cared about me, I date a 20 year old man 9 years ago and she never even batted an eye, never a concerned 'Are you sure about this, Shelly?'. I'm sure she could remember the names of all that turd's friends and yet she couldn't name a single thing I like."
"You must have lonely then." She suddenly interjects, that line makes me go quiet.
Was that what I felt? Loneliness? I mean people have been telling me for years that I was jealous of that turd. Ha, what does he have that I would be jealous about?
I shake those thoughts out of my head, what does she know?! "I don't know what you're talking about." I scoff.
"Well, before I got married, I was living with my sister." She started. "Since we grew up together, we were pretty close. But then after she got married, she changed. She paid so much to her family that I felt more like her roommate than her best friend. At that point, I was so lonely. But even then I had my niece to talk to, I can't imagine what it's like to have no one."
"I had friends…" I remember the few girls that I hang out with, the ones that went with me to that concert when I was still living in South Park. "But it would have been nice if she- Wait, why am I talking to you about this?"
"It's fine if you don't want to. I'm not gonna treat you like my patient. Is there anything else you wanna talk about?"
"Is there anything you wanna rat out to my mom about?" I shoot a glare at her. She sighs.
"I told you before, patient or not, nothing that's said here leaves this room. I won't tell your mom about what you said here unless you want me to."
"Whatever, I'm done for today." I turn away from her and she gets the messages. The one thing I do like about her is that she knows when she's not welcomed anymore.
"Ok then, I'll see you next week."
The guard shows up and escorts her away like they have for the past 6 weeks. Her and all her stupid diagnosis, what does she know about me? Calling me lonely because my mom loved my brother more than her first child.
Calling me jealous because he has his ugly little girlfriend, his friends, his stupid, exciting misadventures…
Whatever, who cares what that wannabe psychiatrist has to say. Whatever's between me and Stan, I'll settle it with him. Face to face.
A/N: Surprise! I've decided to add another perspective and a new character, Dr. Francine Nixon. We'll also be seeing Shelly's rehabilitation process. Don't worry, it will still be mainly focus on Stan and Kyle. Speaking of which, next time we'll be going back to our broken duo.
Sorry for the short chapter, this was a last minute inclusion and Shelly's character is a lot harder to write for than I thought so sorry if she's a little OOC. Please let me know what you guys think.
As always, feel free to check out the drama this story's based on, "It's Okay That's Love" by SBS
