This is a new story. This is my continuation of No Title 2. And please
remember this is my story. I am just a fan of his story as much as everyone
else.

The psychologist stared quietly at his thin notebook. He flipped a few pages in
the book. "Lets see, ah here it is Miss Tendo", he said deep in thought. The
simple writing seems to flow like water. His lined pages filed with his
observations he made during the last session with her. "Hmm, I have another
session today with her", he said out loud.

The psychologist calmly pushed his glasses, which were sliding down, back into
place. "I have to buy a better pair of glasses", he thought.

"Not attentive, patient is distracted by something."

"Isolated, Emotionally, Restricted."

"Asked if she had a goal in her life. Also asked if she wanted to go out with
someone. She said that she wanted to go out, but the boy she wanted was already
going out with someone else. I told her to go chase him. It would be good for
her."

He tapped his fingers lightly on the cherry wood desk. He pulled lightly on his
glasses off his face. He closed his eyes lightly and pulled his light blue
shirt to it. A raping on the door came lightly. "Come in", he said while
wiping and placing the glasses on his face. A blurred figure came into focus as
he leaned over his desk. The girl was dressed in a light blue top with black
pants. She strides over to the desk. She carried a small backpack purse over
her shoulder. "Ahh, Nabiki Tendo, please sit down" he offered her. She sat
down gracefully on the gray chair as she placed her bag to the side. She was
smiling, an uncharacteristic of her of late. She seemed different to the
doctor. She was beaming a smile. She didn't appear to be depressed, the last
state that she was in. He wondered if asking her to seek the boy had interplay
on her current state. "So how has your life been since we last met", he asked.
She paused for a moment. She closed her eyes and spoke out with such excitement
that rivaled a child's curiosity.

"Everything is great. My family has been so supportive of me. Kasumi, Daddy,
and even Akane. Your advice to chase the boy I like was great. Even though it
was rough in doing so, I am glad I did it. He finally noticed me and I think he
has some feelings for me." Nabiki said. She sighed a bit and continued. "I
hope that he will say his feelings to me soon", she said. "I am glad that
giving you a goal has helped you allot. Have you picked up any other hobbies?"
the doctor said. "I have picked up martial arts again and it feels good to do
so," she said. She went on about how her father, Soun Tendo was supportive, if
not over dramatic.

Another quick raping came to the door. The doctor paused for second and told
Nabiki to hold on to those thoughts. "Come in, the door was not locked", he
said. The door creaked open slowly as if it was never opened in a long period
of time. A boy poked his head out through the door. He was silent and wore a
simple Chinese gray pants and shirt with matching hat. His hair done in a pony
tail and had a light reddish mark on the side of his cheek. He looked
introverted to the Doctor. He turned his attention back to his patient. Her
face was a display of several emotions, the look of happiness laid into the
young doctor.

"Are you ready to go Nabiki? It's almost 5 pm. We got to get back before
dark", the young boy spoke. "I am almost done. Thank you doctor", she smiled
lightly at the doctor's direction. "I would like to speak to your 'boyfriend'",
he said in a jovial manner. "He's not my boyfriend", Nabiki said with a slight
twinge in that quote. Ranma agreed to speak with the doctor. The boy grasped a
chair and sat down with his usual manner. "I see that you are the boy my
patient, Nabiki is infatuated with." he said. "Ye. Yeah that's right", he said
with noticeable though on his face. "Well you should consider going out with
her. Maybe you could take her skating or to the movies? It would really help
her in her recovery", he suggested. "I... I'm not sure..." Ranma said with
uncertainty. "Why, she is a beautiful young woman. I don't see the problem
why?" the doctor said with concern. "It's just that, my life is crazy enough.
It's just that I am sort engaged to her sister. I thought she is perfect, until
the recent changes with Nabiki. I don't know anymore. If I go out with Nabiki,
I hurt her sister. And if I do the reverse, I hurt Nabiki. I don't want her to
go back to that empty shell she used to inhabit. He paused with a heavy look in
his eyes. It's that, I feel like I'm in limbo. The two paths I want to take,
twist like the creeping vine. Each with their own personal thorns", he said
slowly. He turns back and looked back at Nabiki through the looking glass. The
doctor looked at her as well. He could understand the boy's perspective on the
situation. He was as introverted as Ranma. Nabiki had the eyes that seem as
bottomless as a clear blue lake. Somewhere in those eyes you could see her soul
reunited. The two men turn their attention back to each other. The doctor was
deep in thought. He looked for the correct words that could help the young boy.

He wondered what might happen as a result for the advice he may give the boy.
He finally made his decision, while choosing his words carefully. He grasps his
pencil and placed it on the desk. "I still feel you should follow my advice.
Nabiki's sister, Akane will understand what you are trying to do. If she truly
cares about you and her sister, she will care enough to let you two decide.
Also this might help you as well. Who knows? you might finally sort out your
feelings as well. Personally, it looks like you are almost to terms to your own
feelings. No one can tell you that, only you can decide that", the doctor said
in his serious, neutral tone of voice. Ranma hopped off the chair. He smile at
the serious advice the doctor gave him. He rattled the door handle and it
responded with a click. The door opened and closed. Ranma thought carefully to
the advice.

The trip home was a quiet stroll home. Nabiki tries at every opportunity to get
close to Ranma. He responds with a smile and laugh to her joking and her
kindness. In his mind he saw the two on a weight scale. Each seemed to balance
each other out. Even if he tried to place a good quality or trait, the other
side would be placed with about the same and started to balance again. Even
with negative traits of the girls, both would counter balance. Nabiki strolled
in front of him and twirled lightly to some light tune in her mind. The shadows
of her person danced with her and Ranma.

They reached the house around a quarter to 6. "Thank you for taking me to the
doctor's office Ranma." Nabiki said coyly while inching toward the boy. "It's
no problem", Ranma said like it was not big deal. The girl leaned towards Ranma
and gives him a peck to the cheek. She inches back every so slowly. The smile
on her face seems to get wider and wider. She spins around with her jacket
following in a second circle. She places one foot in front of the other as she
steps into the door and inside. Ranma idled around abet before entering the
home. The wisps of food filled Ranma's nose like smoke. He was very hungry to
eat. Plus he had a lot more to think about than food.

"Aren't you hungry, Ranma" Akane asked as Ranma walked by. She was responded
that he wasn't really hungry and just wanted to lie down. To say that Akane's
jaw hit the floor was an understatement. She quickly placed her hand on his
forehead and shoved a thermometer into his mouth. Protest arose from the boy.
"What's wrong with you? I am not sick or anything." The boy protested as he
quietly removed the instrument from his mouth. He didn't want it to make a big
deal of it. So he wasn't hungry, it should be the last of her worries he
thought. The stairs creaked as he walked up them. The floorboard responded
back to being stepped on. He reached the guest room and plopped down onto it
and fell into a dreamless sleep.

The dinner for the Tendos and Genma was a peaceful to say the least. Without
Ranma, Genma only eat like a pig and not worried about his manners. Not to
mention the collection of rice pieces on his face. Soun only stared at his
friend eating like a starved man. He has a blank stare on his face and really
doesn't notice the steaming pot in his hands. Kasumi is eating and smiling
politely and striking up conversation with her two sisters. Akane is eating
quickly. Not that she's angry mind you, just that she wants to spar quickly.
Nabiki is smiling and talking with her older sister as well.
"How was your appointment with the doctor?" The older sister inquired. She said
that everything was going great. 'I have to talk to Ranma about this
situation', Kasumi thought. She loved to know what was going on with the two
and if it was going to get more serious.
