Thursday 12 August.

I had the session with Barns today. I don't think it went too well.

When I got their he was sat behind his big desk as usual, but their was another man sat by the window near me, which made me feel uncomfortable to start with. When we started he introduced him to me, I can't even remember his name, and again asked if I was okay with him attending the session. I said yes, again, even though my mind was screaming no. I don't know why I didn't say no in the first place, it would have made everything a lot easier in the long run.

When we started Barns asked me what I had been doing, and I answered the way I always do, 'not much.' But then the jerk behind me interrupted. He started asking me all this stuff, and telling me to broaden my answers. I just stared at him, not saying a word. Okay, so it was bad enough having some guy in my session to begin with, but then for him to interrupt, that was too much. I would have at least tried if he wasn't being so arrogant and pushy.

So about 10 minutes in I got up and told Barns I changed my mind, I didn't want some jerk sat listening in, and I left. No one said anything or tried to stop me, which I was glad for, I would have probably punched the freak.

I went home and Zack was in, I don't know why he wasn't working, I didn't ask. Mom was gone though, and when I asked where she was he started laughing and said she was with Dave. He had a few cans on the table and he threw one to me, and after I caught it he told me he was watching coverage for the game, if I was interested. I didn't think it could hurt, watching a game with him, so I sat with him and it was okay, it was something to do. He let me have a few of his beers and he was silent throughout the match itself - which I am grateful for. I hate it when moms watching it with me as she has to ask questions every five minutes about who is who and what they are supposed to do with the ball.

After the game Zack said he was going to sleep, even though it was early, I think he was a little drunk. Before he went I asked him what happened yesterday with Dave and again he laughed and said 'night' before going upstairs.

After that I went round to Dave's looking for my mom and they two were watching television whilst mom fed Cazy. I stayed for a while but left eventually - watching Dave repeatedly rub at his nose and sniff was getting on my nerves.

So I went back home and read more of Bravo Two Zero, again! I think I need to invest in a few new books, I could recite that one by now! Still, it helped take my mind off the whole thing between Dave and Zack.

Jack.
