Friday rolled in and I was coming back to Domenic's apartment with the gift I got for Summer. Actually, I made her one, I had Domenic bring my canvas and paints to his apartment so I could make Summer a painting. But after hearing she never had a dog I went to a dog shelter and picked up a German shepherd pup. Initially, I was thinking of getting her a small dog but the second I saw his big brown eyes I was sold and I know she will be too. I carried it in a dog traveler and I stuck a big red bow on it. When I opened the apartment door I could immediately smell the food Anthony was preparing and could hear him and Domenic chatting in the kitchen."Hey guys, come in here." I say as I pass through the hallway leaving my jacket on the hanger as I enter the living room."What did you do?" Domenic asked me while he pointed at the pup I was carrying."Come on, hear me out she never had a dog so I thought..." He held up his hand in the air so I would stop talking as both of them walked behind

The car pulled up next to a fountain in front of a big mansion. I've only seen houses like this in movies, with a butler and servants waiting by the door as we arrived. Domenic took my hand and guided me in as Summer and Anthony walked behind us. "Mr. Davis, your father is waiting for you in the dining room." The butler said then proceeded to walk in front of us. We walked with our figures intertwined and took glances at each other, as we came closer to what I assumed would be the dining room we heard voices and laughter. Even tho his father was an older man with hair and a beard grey as ash, I could see Domenic's facial features on his father's face. He was dressed formally in a black suit with a white collar and a red scarf wrapped around his neck as he smoked a cigar. But the last person I imagined seeing today was Alice, but she was here drinking wine and talking with Domenic's father. It was obvious he enjoyed her company but his face changed as he saw us come in. Domenic drew

"Leo." I said shocked as I looked at his face as his arms rested around my waist. We both looked after the car that was about to hit me but it was already too far to see the plates."Autumn, are you ok? Did you get hurt?" Leo asked as he slowly realized me from his embrace."Yes, I'm fine. Thanks to you Leo, you saved me." After how we left things and the time I hadn't seen him, having him in front of me felt good despite the circumstances. "What is going on Autumn, why is the cafe in this state?" Leo asked as he pointed to the broken windows."Someone vandalized it but I don't want to talk about that." I say as I look at my friend, his ginger hair is longer and his normally shaved face now has a beard forming. "Where have you been Leo, I wanted to talk with you about what happened." His eyes dodge mine for a moment and can feel him hesitate but this time I'm not letting him leave."Why don't we go sit somewhere, have a coffee, and talk? We owe it to all the years we've been friends.

We drive up to my house and the first thing I notice is how clean my front yard is, my mother's roses still blooming and my front porch clean and free of leaves. As we get out of the car I see my old neighbor throwing out trash and he waves his hand at me when he sees me. "Hello, Mr.Evans." I say as I walk over to his fence. "Autumn, is that you child? I haven't seen you in a long time." He and his wife used to babysit me when I was little and Mom had to work, later as I grew up his eyesight began to worsen so I would often read books for him. "Yes, Mr.Evans. How are you?" I ask as I extend my hand to him and he gently shakes it. "Not as good as you but I can't complain, as long as I have my Olivia by my side I'm great." If someone ever told me to show them a happy couple I'd pick them. No matter how many years have passed their love remains the same. "I see you brought company, don't tell me you are finally settling down." I smile as I turn to Domenic and pull him over so I can i

"Mr. Davis, we've already been through this. You have to say your feelings out loud because only when you hear yourself admit it can you take action." Dr.Miller said as she opened her notebook and wrote something down as she talked to me. I hate it when she does that, not knowing what she writes makes me wanna get up and take it away from her. But then again that's why I'm here to explore my feelings. "I have a hard time seeing her in such a bad state, and I fear she loved him more than she realized at the time." Dr. Miller just looks at me like she knows that's not everything I have to say and I sigh as I brace myself for the next words that are about to come out of my mouth."I think she did in fact love him but now that he's gone for good she finally realised it and that's what killing her." I don't know if that sums it up but I feel like it's a start. "Mr.Davis, you are just telling me what you think she feels, but what are you feeling?" God, woman that's what I'm paying you to f
