"So, let's re-cap." Frasier said as I finished explaining my problem to him. "You're having trouble with your Mother being overbearing. You believe she's worried about you because she doesn't want you to get hurt the way she was by your father?"

"Yes."

"And, she's not just 'overbearing' in the terms of any mother concerned about her child. You feel she is irrational with concern to keeping you away from the world?"

"That's correct." As he continued to read through his notes, I couldn't take my eyes off of him. I didn't quite understand the feeling I got when I was near him; I'd never felt like this about anybody before.

"You've stated that you have already thought through the option of moving out of her house into your own place. But you've concluded that you don't have enough money to pay full rent as well as carry on your education. And so in order to learn how to better cope with your situation your best friend suggested that you should see a therapist?"

"Yes. I've tried everything. Although I don't really see what you could do to help, this seemed to be my last and only option." I explained.

"That's okay. I promise I'll do my best to help you." He looked thoughtful. "Although it is a complicated case with regard to what advice I can give you." He looked into my eyes and flashed the most mesmerising smile. "I'll have to think about this one." He chuckled.

I couldn't help but smile back. "Thank you Frasier." My eyes wandered towards my watch. "Oh, look at the time! I've been here for two and a half hours!"

"Really?!" Frasier replied with astonishment. "I don't know about you, but that went rather quickly?"

"Yes, yes it did. Well, um… I suppose I should make another appointment?" I questioned.

"Yes. As you already know, I'm free anytime it's convenient for you."

"Well, I have school all week. But I'd really like to see you again-I mean…….as a therapist." Don't be foolish Lilith, of course he knows you meant as a therapist! "Um…I suppose I could ask Ellinorre to cover for me, and come in around 5:30 after school? She can tell my mother that I'm studying with her, we usually study together, so it shouldn't seem suspicious. Except… She's covering for me today, so in order not to overload her, I'll have to say Tuesday?

"Okay. 5:30 Tuesday it is." He responded as he stood up to see me out.

"Perfect." As I got up from the couch, he placed his hand on the small of my back while he motioned towards the door. His touch felt so warm, I actually felt a pang of disappointment when he removed it.

"I'll see you Tuesday Lilith."

"See you Tuesday Frasier."
