A Lovers Vengeance-Ch 26
When Derek woke up the next morning he found a note laying beside him that said, "didn't want to wake you so I got Jayje to take me to my appointment, I'll see you
at work, I LOVE YOU". He smiled and then got up and made his way toward the kitchen when the aroma of coffee filled the room., he said, "you even thought of my coffee
sweetness you are so sweet to your man".
Penelope and JJ sat in the waiting room of the therapist and Penelope said, "I I don't know if I can do this Jayje", JJ put her hand on her friends and said, "you
can do this Garcie, maybe talking to her will help you". Penelope said, "thanks Jayje", she turned her hand the right way and JJ saw that huge ring on her finger
and said, "is that what I think it is"?, Penelope nodded her head and said, "yesssss, hotstuff and I are engaged".
JJ said, "that's great news, congratulations", Penelope smiled and said, "he's everything I've ever dreamed of and I can't wait", they were then pulled from their
conversation when the doctor opened her door and said, "Penelope Garcia". JJ said, "I'll be right here waiting for you", she nodded her head as she disappeared into
the room with the doctor.
Penelope walked nervously over and sat down on the couch and watched as the doctor sat down across from her and said, "Penelope I was filled in on your case from your
last therapist". Penelope nodded her head and said, "I want to thank you for fitting me in so fast", the doctor held out her hand and said, "my name is Sonya Messer
and you are very welcome".
Sonya said, "where would you like to start"?, Penelope blew out a deep breath and said, "I was raped", Sonya nodded her head and listened as Penelope said, "I was
raped by an ex boyfriend and I feel so dirty and so, so". Sonya said, "used"? Penelope nodded her head and said, "exactly, how did you know that"?, she said, "because
I to was raped and it was my counselor that made me realize that I wanted to help people that have been victimized like we were".
Penelope said, "what happened to you, ohhhh I'm sorry it's none of my business", Sonya said, "no, no it's alright", she crossed her legs and said, "I was leaving from
work and it was dark outside so I was hurrying toward my car". Penelope listened as she continued by saying, "I was almost to my car when I dropped my keys and when
I leaned over to pick them up somebody grabbed me from behind and pushed me on the ground".
Sonya said, "he was all over me, he was so strong and the more I fought the rougher he got and when he was finally finished with me he left me laying there partially
naked and used, he just left me there". Penelope reached out and touched her hand and said, "I'm so sorry Sonya", she nodded her head and said, "thank you, it was
where I was abused that I am able to help other survivors because I know what they went through and how they feel".
Penelope sat back and relaxed as she started filling Sonya in on what happened to her, when she was finished Sonya said, "now that he's dead how do you feel"?, she
said, "better but I can still feel his hands on me and I can still feel him violating me". Sonya said, "trust me it will get easier", she sighed and nodded her head
and said, "I have a huge support system and they help me, especially my hotstuff, my Derek".
Sonya said, "he sounds like an amazing person", she said, "ohhh he is Sonya, he is and lastnight he proposed to me and I accepted", Sonya said, "that's so so wonderful
Penelope but may I ask you a question"?, she nodded her head and said, "sure". Sonya said, "have you been able to be intimate with Derek yet"?, she looked down at
her lap and started playing with the bottom of her shirt.
Penelope shook her head and said, "nothing other than kissing and I told him that it might take a while before I could", Sonya said, "and what did he say to that, how
did he handle it"?, Penelope smiled and said, "he was so sweet, he said that he would wait forever if that's what it took". Sonya said, "you don't find men like that
very much anymore".
Penelope said, "ain't that the truth", Sonya said, "right now you need time to heal on the inside and on the outside", Penelope said, "that's what everybody has been
tellng me". She said, "they are right because you don't want to try to force yourself into a sexual relationship if you aren't ready, trust me when you're ready you
will know it".
About an hour later Penelope stood up and hugged Sonya and said, "thank you so much for talking to me today", she said, "I'm here for you anytime Penelope, if you
need somebody to talk to don't hesitate to call me". Penelope smiled and said, "if I have anymore problems I'll call you, I promise" and Sonya then walked Penelope
to the door and watched her meet up with JJ before heading out of the office with a huge smile on her face.
