"You're here alone today..."
"Yeah. I needed this session. I think you know why."
"Tell me how you're feeling today Tristan." Dr Moyo says to me patiently. I know she's been suspecting for a while, even before I knew. I appreciate the fact that she doesn't ask me to put it in words.
We were in one of our sessions when Meghan dramatically accused me of having feelings for Mia. I'd of course denied it because it was a lie. At least that was what I thought at the time.
"I'm feeling... conflicted. I'm coming to you not only because you're my therapist, but b

"I never liked him anyways.""You almost left grandpa to be with him.""I was trying to be charming darling. You certainly wouldn't have appreciated it had I been rude."Grandma says bullshiting me. She'd already came up with the names of mine and Luke's kids on the first day she'd met him and now she's claiming she didn't like him to start with."He was too muscular." I roll my eyes because she kept on touching his biceps as if they were gold. Luke had the greatest arms in the world."Speaking of grandpa..." I say clearly annoying her because,"Ok you're right, he was an angel and you made a big mistake l

"I think let's put those over there.A little bit to the left.. a bit further.No no! Just leave them, I'll do it myself!"I could literally scream right now."Ms Oliphant, where do you want these?"I can't help but cringe at that."Let's try to organize the tables and chairs first. Everything else will come after. And Mike... it's Mia. Please."I absolutely hate formalities, any kind really. There's only one person I allow to call me by my last name, and that's only because he's stubborn and he'll do it just to get on my nerves."I heard you're being a bridezilla today, but of whatever this is." Says the man who was supposed to be here a million

I haven't seen Jake in a while. Not because things are bad with us but because he is a very busy person. Being a CEO of a now multimillion rand company will do that to you.So even though we're friends, I never expect him to show up and be there for me for things. So my shock is justified not only that he's here at my grandma's ball, but that he's the person responsible for the amazing gown I have on this evening."This was you?" I ask him rhetorically in disbelief.I don't even want to begin to think about how he managed to sneak it into my house with the level of security there but I'm not mad either."Yes mam." He says with a smirk that I try really hard not to slap off his face. I know he's only doing it to get

I don't like being left alone in people's houses. For multiple reasons but also because sometimes people just show up. This is obviously not at all likely to happen but that's currently what's happening to me.Jake and I were working on some reports until he randomly decided he needed to go get a quickie, so he went to go visit Emily or whoever it is who's his victim now.I'm mad because that seriously could've waited. I'm stopping the things that I need to do so I can help him out and this is how he thanks me? Ok maybe I don't have things I need to do since I have all the time in the world now, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm now face to face with the man who used to make my life a living hell."Can I get you something to drink?"He's just staring at me and

I hang up the upcoming call on my phone for the umpteenth time this morning before I decide to just switch it off.Today's got to be perfect. I can't afford distractions. I ignore the weird feeling laced with that word.After taking a few breaths, I finally step out of my car and make my way into the giant building I've googled too many times. It looks even better in person."Hi how are you doing?"I don't like asking people this question because it's always pretentious, on both sides. When someone asks how you're doing they don't really care to know how you're really doing, and when people answer that question, they always feel the need to give just one answer, the expected answer.Today I ask because I'm need

"So he called the company and they ended up taking me. I'm starting on... Hey are you listening to me?""Nugget. You've been talking about this for a million years. I know the whole story by heart now. You still won't answer his calls yada yada yada." He says annoyingly."But what did he think would happen after all that he said to me? That I'm just going to forgive him? Just like that?" I say and I hear him grunt through the phone."Tristan what's the point of our friendship if I can't tell you my frustrations?"I genuinely want to know."I'm sorry nugget. But you should at least say thank you. You did get the job because of him." He says confusing my made up

"R200 000 for a bag?!"Does it carry itself around?"Yup. And that's the cheapest we've got."Even the lady who works here thinks that's ridiculous, you can see it in her eyes."Mam, Birkin bags are incredibly unique." The manager explains to me. Clearly that's something she tells people on a daily.They wouldn't even let me in the shop until I told them who my grandmother was. Apparently only certain people can have the luxury of being sold this incredibly expensive piece of garbage. I am shocked that this is the world we live in.I don't care how rich I am, I'm not getting myself a bag that's anything over a R1000. But this is not for me so,

"You're a difficult person to talk to." It literally feels like I'm talking to a wall."Mia you talk too much." He says not even bothering to look up from his laptop.I don't know what to do."It can't be true though right?"He did say Meghan accused him of being in love with me, we laughed about that. Right? There's no way it's true."I mean I guess he's been acting weird lately, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's in love with me now, does it?" I continue to speak alone as my dear friend continues to ignore me.I haven't been able to sleep since my session with Meg earlier today. It's now past midnigh
