A week later Azula found herself back in Dr.Smith's office. She was in just as much of a bad mood as before.

"Welcome back Azula, how are you today?" Asks Dr.Smith
"Fine" Azula replies dryly.
"So first of all, is there anything you would like to talk about? Maybe something that happened?"
"No, I don't want to talk about anything"
"Ok well this time we won't do that. Are you still in an argument with your boyfriend?"
"Oh no, we actually made up and it was really nice"
"That's good. Did you have a conversation about that girl"
"No... but whatever, we'll see where that goes"
"Well if it's something you're worried about then maybe you should bring it to his attention again and have a proper talk with him"
"Worried?! I'm not worried, I don't feel threatened by her! She's just some bitch who's attached to my boyfriend and he's too nice to say anything!"
"Ok, you don't have to get angry about it, let's stay calm here. Ok so how are you other relationships? Like your family, friends, etc?"
"Um well I have two best friends, Mai and Ty lee, and we've been friends for a while so that's cool. I don't have too much extended family. All of my grandparents except for one of my grandfathers passed away. I have an uncle and an older cousin but they travel a lot so I don't see them much. Plus when they do come over they're mainly around my brother Zuko"
"Oh really? So you're not close with them?"
"I don't know, not really I guess..."
"Ok does it bother you or anything?"
"Oh not really... I mean I'm a little used to my brother getting all the attention from family members anyways"
"Oh ok then. And what about your mother?"
"My mother? Look, I don't really want to talk about her"
"How come?"
"Because I don't want to waste my breath on her"
"Ok clearly there are some issues here... what's going on between you and your mother"
"We don't get along, that's it"
"Why not?"
"Because she hates me and I hate her"
"Azula I'm sure your mom doesn't hate you"
"Look I said I don't wanna talk about this, can we change the subject?"
"I think it's a good idea to talk about this"
"I don't want to talk about it! Change the subject!"
"Ok ok, we won't talk about your mother if you aren't ready"
"Good"

They continued to talk about other stuff during the rest of her session. Once again, Azula went home slightly more mad after and still couldn't understand how this would help her.

The next day at school, Sokka and Azula decided to eat lunch on their own that time. They wanted to talk together alone and were having a nice time with each other. Well, they were until Yue walked up to them...

"Hey Sokka, you wanna finish our project during this lunch? We're almost done and I'm sure we'll finish it" she said
"Oh well actually-" Sokka started before he was quickly cut off.
"No, he can't" Azula interjected
"Well I didn't ask you, I asked Sokka"
"And he can't so go away"
"Why are you being so pissy with me?"
"Because you're always stuck to him. You can have a break from him, you won't go into withdrawal"
"Oh right, I forgot that you're insecure about the fact that I'm friends with Sokka"
"Insecure?! You don't make me fucking insecure! Who do you think you are?!"
"Woah calm down, it was just a joke... why are you so bitchy? Does your mom not love you or something?" Yue played off that last part with a laugh to make it seem like a joke, when in reality she just wanted to see Azula's reaction and confirm her suspicions.
"Excuse me?! What the fuck did you just say?!"
"It was just a joke, I didn't mean it..."
"Well it wasn't funny at all, ok?! Just don't talk to me and stay away from Sokka!"
"Ok, whatever..." Yue said as she walked away with a malicious grin. "Bingo, Azula 100% has some sort of mommy issues" Yue thought to herself.

"Did you tell her anything Sokka?!" Azula said to Sokka once she left.
"No no, I didn't, I swear. She really must've just said it like that..."
"Whatever, she's stupid"
"It's ok, don't worry about it" Sokka said as he kisses her head and started caressing her hair.
"I'm not worrying about it"
"That's good. Come on, the bell is gonna ring soon, let's get to class" he said and grabbed her hand.
"Yeah ok, let's go" she said with a smile and squeezed his hand tighter. She's been going through a lot but Sokka has always been there for her and always makes her feel better. She feels very lucky to have a boyfriend like him.
