Tessa's Pov:

"Marshall" I exclaimed. "Omg" I added. I ran over to him and hugged him tight. He hugged me back. "I tought I'll never see you again" I said as tears started to stream down my face. He noticed my crying. "Hey, its ok" he softly spoke. I missed his voice so much. After a few seconds we broke the hug.

We were looking at each other. I wiped away my tears. "I missed you so much" he said. "I missed you too, I always tought about you" I returned. "Why are you going to therapy?" I asked curiously. "Erm, I'm suffering with depression, esspecially when I found my brother and he died 7 months after" he answered.

I couldn't bealive my Marshall, suffering with depression. His brother dead? I feel like a 100 needles been stuck in my heart. "I'm so sorry to hear that" I said truhfully. "It's fine" he said. "Please take a seat" I gentely offered. He nodded. "So tell me something about your life." I asked

"When you left I was very depressed. No one would talk to me, everyone tough I was weird. Then no one wanted to adopt me. When I turned 18, I had struggles finding job to pay for my apartment. I got envicted, I had to work extra hours for more money to rent my old apartment again. Then my brother Mike found me, after a few months he got diagnosed with lung cancer. He was fighting for his life, and 7 months ago he lost his battle...now Im here" he explained.

I looked at him with my eyes full of tears. I can't believe what he was going trough all that all alone. "Marshall I'm so sorry to hear that " I said truthfully. "It's ok" he mumbled.

I got up and walked to my desk. I found a piece of paper. and wrote down my number. I got back. "Here, if you need anything just call me, ok?" I said giving him a piece of the paper. "Thank you" he said. I'm still emotional, I cant believe he's here with me in the same room. "Can you give me your phone?" he asked. For a moment I was sceptical but I gave him my phone anyways. He started typing something. "Here, call me, when you want to hang out" he said with a smirk written all over his face.

He gave me my phone back and I placed it in my bag. That cute little smirk, if I could, I would just kiss him already. "Are you free after this?" he spoke. Is he asking me out? "yeah" I simply replied. "Wanna you know...go out?" he asked rubbing his neck nervously. Is this really happening!? "Like on a date?" I asked curiously. "Yeah if you want to call it that way" he said.

date?

"Yeah sure, why not" I replied. God why's he so nervous? After we talked for a few more hours we decided to leave,and take a walk. "You sure you can leave?" he asked as I said bye to Megan. "Yes I am" I said. "Alright" he mumbled.

"Ay yo Em" I heard someone yell. A man came running to us. As he came closer I recognized him. It was a guy I saw at lunch. The one who was staring at my braclet. "Hey man" Marshall said. "Sup dawg" man asked. "Nothin' much man,just finished my appontment" he answered.

"I think I saw you today, you are new therapist here, right?" Man asked me. "Yeah, thats me" I chuckled. "D man this is Tessa" Marshall introduced me to him. "This is Deshaun, but we call him Proof, he's also my best friend" Marshall explained.

Proof gave him a look, Marshall nodded. I suppose its soee kind of their own languege.

When Proof left Marshall and I walked in fast food restaurant. We sat down at the table next to the window. We ordered something to eat. "Em, I never asked you" i began. "Hm"

"What about your mother" I asked. He sighed. "well shes a drug addict, and the most of the time she's not aware of anything" he explained. "What about the rest of your family?"I asked curiously "They think Im not worth them, only my dead brother and my little sister Tina tink Im worth them" he answered.

I can't explain the way I was feeling when those words came out of his mouth. I had to tell him what I thought. "Marshall don't let them treat you like that,you are worth more than you think" I spoke softly. He offered me a small shy smile and I smiled back. He was about to say s, they tried many times but mom enomething but he was cut off by our waitress serving us our meals.

I ordered a cheeseburger and diet coke. Marshall ordered spaghetti and coke as well. "What about you Tess?" He asked. I furrowed my eyebrows at him. "How's your family" he added. "Well I'm living with my mom and dad, I have two brothers Andrew and Nickolas" I answered. "Thats nice. Are they adopted as well?" he asked. I shook my head.

"No they are not, my parents always wanted to have a daughter, they tried many times, but mom always ended up miscarriaging baby. Then she got pregnant with twins Dre and Nico" I explained. "Thats nice" he spoke. "Yeah" I smiled at rhe tough of my family. We are our meals. It was time to pay.

"this is on me" Marshall said. "No, Marsh its on me" I argued softly. Marshall then got up and ran to the counter and paid our meals. When he got bac I thanked him. "You really didn't have to do that" I started. "But I wanted to" he said. We got into car and he drove me home. I was about to get out of the car."Thank you Marsh, I hope I'll see you soon" I said. "me too, bye Tess" he added. "See you "

With that I got in the house, took a shower and went straight to bed thinking about what happened today.
