I look over and see Merigold standing on the steps talking to Axel and Viper. She looks over, smiles, and gives me a thumbs up. I see her mouth ‘ you have got this.’ She is right. I can do this. “ First I’m sorry for how things went down the last time I saw you. I handled things badly. I can see that now. And in time I hope you will forgive me.” I take a deep breath. “ Thanks to some strong-arming from Merigold I have been seeing a therapist. I won’t give you all the details yet. I’m just not ready. There are some things from my past that affected me.

$$$*$$$*$$$ “He told me he was poor.” I didn’t know why I was bothered and nervous about talking to a therapist. It felt amazing. The room was colored pastel, and I was lying down on a very comfortable bed, staring at the ceiling. I wasn’t even looking at the therapist. They were just sitting across me on a chair, a notebook by their lap. The only time we made eye contact was when I shook their hand and they asked me how my day was.

“Care to tell me what happened last night?” I loosened his arms around me. “Let’s have breakfast, Skip. I need to go home, and I have an appointment with my therapist today.” I told him I was seeing a therapist after my divorce and stopped it a few months ago. “I won’t pry, Reigh, but it breaks me that I can’t even help you with your problems.

So many therapists gave up because I never talked about Mom. Only Mr. Khan was the one who stuck with me, he was just an intern when he got my case. According to him I was his very first and the most interesting case. Mr. Khan was different than the other psychologists though, he would never ask me about my past, instead he would spend his time with me. Telling me his stories about how his day went and would take me to different places. He was the one because of whom I developed my love for electronic devices and gadgets.

Danny stands guard at the door of the boutique, while the rest of his team sit outside in vans, waiting to spring into action as needed. It's been two weeks since I started therapy, and things are gradually starting to get better. I'm finally confronting the grief of losing Alicia and one day, I may even be ready to talk about Nathan. My therapist, Dr. Drake, is well-acquainted with the mafia. I'm sure Diego wouldn't have chosen her otherwise. I have too much blood on my hands to confess my sins to a regular therapist.

Everyone had a similar story. I passed one of the group rooms and smiled at the art therapist Lauren had suggested, who came in a few times a week and had confided in me during her interview that she had a history of sexual abuse, but nothing more. As more and more time passed, I thought less and less about Henley and Stephenson. At this point, I barely knew why I’d ever considered not throwing my whole self into this. Just stepping into the Haven felt almost as much like coming home as returning to Tom’s at the end of the night.

We have had a therapist come to make house calls a couple of times, one with no connection to the Institute. “Maybe I should,” he says with a small grin. “I bet it is less stressful and messy.” “Are you sure about that?” I giggle softly. I have a feeling that our therapist often feels rather stressed and definately like he is cleaning up a big mess. Lucas looks at me with a curious expression. “Does Elijah stress out the poor therapist?” “It is probably more me,” I admit. “Listening to Elijah’s stories, his childhood, his life, the whole thing with the institute, how he has felt and sometimes still feels… it’s hard.”

I begged with my eyes looking so sore he gave me a card and I thanked him graciously before taking my leave, two days rolled by and I couldn't decide if giving the therapist a try is worth it.
