Part 4: Strange…

Wednesday – 23rd of March 2006

It's been about a month now since Katie started seeing Jessie for therapy sessions. Each and every time, they got to know more and more about each other… yes each other, not just Jessie knowing about Katie, but they got to know each other.

Katie found out that Jessie use to see a therapy herself when she was in high school, for her eating disorder. Jessie also got to know that Katie doesn't feel as normal as she felt, she says she always seem to have to put up a certain image, a fake image of herself in front of her 'friends' and sometimes she just gets exhausted by doing so.

Today, Katie somehow or another managed to arrive five minutes early for her session, unlike normally, she would either be just on time, or running late. 'Huh, weird… I'm actually early…' Katie thought as she checked her watch once she stepped out of the elevator.

After Katie waved to Kristy, the secretary, that she has arrived for her appointment, she took a seat and read a random magazine placed on the table beside her. The door opened to Jessie's room and a man, whom Katie has seen a few times before, when she does arrive for her appointment punctually. Katie stood up, gave a polite smile towards the man and smiled brightly at the person who came out after him… Jessie, her therapist.

Jessie opened the door to her room for Mr. Simmons, after he walked out, she followed him closely. To Jessie's shock, she found Katie already standing there waiting, after the initial shock a genuine smile also came across Jessie's face.

Unbeknownst to Jessie and Katie, Kristy was looking onto both of their facial expressions once they saw each other… 'Weird… just weird.' she thought.

"Okay Mr. Simmons… See you next week!" Jessie said brightly towards her other patient.

"See you… And once again, call me George." He left, but not without smiling charmingly, a smile most girls would've fallen for… but not Jessie.

"Hi Katie… You're early…" Jessie said jokingly as she walked back into her room.

Katie followed suit, "No… not early. Just on time, for like once in my life."

"I see… Sometimes it's okay to be fashionably late though…" Jessie contradicted as she took a seat on her wheelie chair.

"Yes… to functions and parties, but not to a appointment or a meeting." Katie replied, taking a seat in the comfy chair, a chair she has grown a liking to ever since coming to sessions.

"Well, it's good that you depict which events to be fashionably late for…" Jessie said smiling still, "So busy?"

"As always…"

"Anything to vent out?"

"No… seems like everything is going well for me up till now. I mean I've got a multimillion dollar company. A great partner for it too, a.k.a. your step sister, though I broke up with Tad, but it was for the better, because our relationship is so much more… close now. I've got like the best therapist," Katie started babbling and naming off the good things that are happening around her.

Jessie blushed at the praise Katie made of her, but still continued nodding her head.

"Hmmm, what else… Oh and I've signed another excellent contract – and heard that there will be a celebration party this Saturday." Katie said proudly, "Talking about that party, would you like to come?"

Catching Jessie off guard, "Huh? Me come to your celebration party?"

"Well, yeah. I mean, you're like Grace's step sister, my therapist, AND my friend." Katie said hopefully.

"Hmm… I'll consider your invitation…" Jessie replied as she continued to nod.

"Well you better be there… or I'll start sulking… and you won't be the best therapist anymore." Katie threatened lightheartedly.

Jessie just laughed.

'Hmm… she has a really nice laugh.' Katie thought, 'Wait… she's my therapist… But who could deny that she does have a nice laugh? Right?'

The session continued on with Jessie and Katie flirting lightly, unknowingly. Katie got up, put on her long coat and asked, "Have time?"

"Yeah." Jessie replied as she was filing some stuff in her cabinet.

"Dinner?"

"Sure."

"Good."

"Eating?" Jessie asked, as she looked up from her documents.

"Japanese?" Katie suggested.

"Great."

"Excellent."

It just appears that the one worded conversations are happening more and more often, especially lately… maybe because they have a therapist and patient connection… or maybe a different bond.

After Jessie finished packing all her stuff, she, Katie and Kristy locked up. As they waited for their elevator, they began to chat away like school girls.

"So you guys going to dinner?" Kristy asked.

"Yeah… you know at the Japanese restaurant… just a few minutes away from here." Katie said, thinking hard what the restaurant was called.

"Oh, I know that place. They serve the best sushi!" Kristy said.

"You going anywhere?" Jessie asked.

"Yep, my boyfriend's coming to pick me up for dinner."

"How sweet…" Katie said.

"Yeah… he is a sweetie."

After the elevator reached ground floor the three walked out and opened the glass doors, which led to the busy streets.

"So see you tomorrow Doctor Sammler, and see you next week Katie!" Kristy said as she turned left from the door.

"Bye." The other two said in unison.

"So… did you drive today?" Katie asked.

"Uh… no… My cars at the garage, something about the oil being low."

"Even better… My cars parked that way…" Katie said as she pointed towards the opposite direction Kristy just left.

As they walked closely together fighting the cold breeze hitting against them and laughing at whatever they thought was funny. Katie, for some reason, felt as though someone was watching them, she turned her head around the place, finally her attention landed across the street, and she saw someone. 'Huh… That looked kinda like Jessie's patient… Mr. Simmons… Maybe it's just me being paranoid.'

Jessie noticed Katie's head swirling around every where and she too tried looking around, though not really sure what she was trying to look for.

"What are you looking at?" Jessie asked curiously.

"Huh? Oh nothing." Katie answered dismissively.
