We sat downstairs, anxiously waiting for our girl to finish with the psychologist. Oliver put his head on my shoulder, and the atmosphere was heavy.

James left the room to help trins half sibling after she'd stared at him whilst gasping for breath. Her eyes were red and full of tears

"Trinette, breathe- look at me. You're okay. Shhh" Oliver said as he tried to calm her but she whacked his arms away with force, evidently not wanting him to touch her.

"Shut up. Shut Up. Shut Up!!" She shouted as she glared at us, her chest heaving with panic and fear.

"Principe-"

"No! Stop It!!" She was shaking as she shouted and gasped for air. I'd never seen her so upset...so panicked...

"What's wron-"

"How. How dare you have the audacity to ask that. You did this to me! You're the reason I'm like this. You're the reason I can't even find peace in my sleep! All because you didn't fucking- just- Get out!" Her voice shakey with disbelief and anger and pain. But pain was the most prevelant.

And it was obvious that our presence was upsetting her further, so we looked to each other, exchanging looks as she furiously glared at us before leaving. Ryan called the psychologists office, hoping to at least get the on-call, and got the one she'd seen who was on her way.

We could hear her heavy breaths and shaky sobs through the door and it broke me. I don't know how much more I can do. I'm helpless...

Tears pricked my eyes as we waited for the verdict from the psychologist visit. Why did she react like that this time? She hadn't thrown up from a flashback before and she'd never had that much pain in her eyes. I just want to make her better - why can't I make her better!

Why isn't she getting better, what am I doing wrong?

"Miles? Take a breath" Oliver encouraged as he kissed my jawbone. I tried to take a deep breath but I couldn't, I couldn't breathe deep.

I felt like I was being suffocated from the inside out and I can't cope.

"Milo, breathe with me" he instructed, holding his hands round the middle of my chest and his front up against my back so I could feel his breathing. He started with shallow breaths which progressed into deeper ones, and eventually I could breathe easier.

"What if she doesn't get better ols? I hate seeing her like this" I asked as I looked to the stairs, a sigh left his lips and he shrugged

"I can't tell you that, because I don't know. But we will love and support her the whole time, hm?" He smiled softly to me and I nodded, taking the breaths I needed whilst Blue was snuggling up to me, hoping for love and cuddles.
