It was mid afternoon and Valentine was waiting in the waiting room of her therapist office. There were only three other people in the room one including a Down syndrome child who was playing with her toys with her parent.
There was also an elderly man who was playing with his wedding band. Valentine often assumed his wife passed since he always came alone and looked utterly devastated every time he was in the room.
"Ms. Clove Dr. Gaven is ready to see you." The receptionist spoke guiding Valentine to the back.
She got to the grey door to the back hall before going into her therapist office.
"Hey Valentine how have you been." Valentines therapist asked with a big smile.
"I'm good Barry how about you?" Valentine asked getting comfortable.
"I'm great last session we were talking about your trauma for the first time and why your uncomfortable around most people would you like to revisit that?" Barry asked pulling out his notes.

"Okay so last time you were telling me your foster sister dragged you to a party and got raped blamed the whole thing on you right?" Barry replied. Valentine nodded her head as she began reciting what happened that day she began to recall more and more.

"That's my luh beybeh ova' there cmon'." Jah'Quez the rough neck from the neighbor said motioning for Kayla Valentine's foster sister to come over to the couch.
"I really don't want to be here Kayla." Valentine said not moving an inch from the door of the booming party.

She poured one cup out and put plain water in it and sipped.
"My people ova' there tryna holla at you beybeh." Some guys said randomly spawning in the half empty kitchen.
"No thank you." Valentine quietly chirped out.
"Cmon' love don't be like dat." The guy proceeded getting up in Valentines personal space.
"I'm good." Valentine reiterated getting snatched by her wrist and dragged over to the group of guys.
