"So Aura, we've been talking and we want to discuss something with you", Daphne starts. Aurora lays her phone down on her lap, giving them her full attention. "Ok so... there's this therapist and I've heard from a distant friend that he's really understanding and really knows what he's talking about-'' before Stella could even finish her sentence, Aurora cuts her off.
"Are you guys implying that I should go?" she asks, cocking a brow .
Her best friends reply to her question with a nod.
"So you guys are finally tired of me and my issues? Y'all think I'm crazy?"
Aurora didn't want to admit it but she's hurt. She's scared that the only people who understood her, are finally giving up on her. They're the only people she has, besides her sister, who lives all the way across the country.
"Woah, woah, woah hold on bitch that's not what we're trying to say." Daphne argues back at Aurora.
Nayla joins in by saying, "Aurora, now you of all people know we all have issues." and she continues with "The only thing we're trying to do is help, I don't think you understand how much it hurts us to watch go through all this pain, knowing that we can't fully help you."
Aurora sighs as she looks away from her best friends.
Silence fills the room as her three friends patiently wait for her to say something. Suddenly a sniffle was heard, breaking the silence. The three older women's faces turn from neutral to concerned within seconds.
"Aura, are you okay?" Stella asked, scared that they had triggered one of her episodes.
Aurora takes a few more seconds to try and calm herself before answering, "I um... I think you guys are right, I do need help and I am willing to see this therapist." They all give her sad smiles.
"That's a good start, being able to admit that you need help, a lot of people aren't able to do that." Daphne encourages.
Aurora smiles through her tears, looking at her friends. Agreeing that they'll talk about it more tomorrow, they call it a night, going back to their rooms.
Aurora got done with her night routine, putting on her PJs, and getting in her bed.
She shuts her phone off, putting it on the charger and laying it on the bedside table. As she lays there meanlessly watching the TV show that played on her television screen.
The only thing she could think about, was the fact that she's finally getting help for something that would eventually kill her in the long run and with that thought clouding her mind she slowly drifted into a state of unconsciousness.
