*2 years later*
*RING RING*
I opened my eyes with the son blaring in my face
I looked over to see my phone vibrating on my nightstand I picked up my phone to answer the call
HAPPY BIRTHDAY NIGGA
My hb Dom yelled from the other side of the phone
Mane I was sleeping well why do you have to wake me up to do the childish shi I laughed
"Mane cus it's your birthday mane we finna go to the club tonight and find you a girl cus ik its been awhile since you got sum cat frl" Dom said
You know the club aint ever really been my type of thing I said
I don't know what you're talking about Mya and I are together
Dom sighed
"Chris I love you but we've talked about this many times mane"
"It's been 2 years bro"
"She's not coming back and you need to leave her in the past because you need to move on" he sounded disappointed
I decided to change the subject
Mane, I got to go to work anyways
"Alrt mane we still going to the club," Dom said
Yeah wtv mane ttyl I said and hung up the phone
I didn't have time to make a full breakfast so I just grabbed a banana and headed out the door
My first session wasn't until 10 so I decided to catch up on some work
"Happy Birthday Dr.Johnson," my secretary said laying a small bunt cake on my desk
Thank you Ava I said
"No problem why aren't you smiling it's your birthday," Ava asked looking concerned
Oh it's nothing I said
"Okay then oh and your new appointment is a brand new client I talked to her over the phone the other day," Ava said
Anything I should be prepared for I asked
"Yes she's going through a difficult divorce while caring for her non-verbal autistic son on her own," Ava said
I rapidly tapped the pen on my desk and licked my lips because I had never worked with kids in such a situation let alone with a child with special needs.
I don't know about that Ava. Yk I often don't do family therapy. I said
"You already have the license to do so Chris plus she already paid and she said she's been looking for help everywhere but none of the places have been successful," Ava said
"Just give it a try you could really help someone out"
Ava said giving me a good luck pat on the shoulder and a quick hug before leaving my office
*1hr later*
*Ava knocks on my office door*
"She's here," she said
Send her in
"You got this" Ava mouthed to me
I took another deep breath and said a quick prayer
Ava held the door open and in walked in a beautiful woman with a sleepy little boy
She sat down on the couch that sat right in front of my desk and put the little boy down next to her
I went to introduce myself but before the little boy got off the couch and ran to my legs and wrapped his arms around them tightly
I looked up at her for help and she immediately got up
"Braxton c'mon baby rmb hands," she said in a slightly frustrated tone
It seemed as if she was used to this type of behavior before she was able to get him off my leg and back on the couch
She sighed as she ran her hand through her hair
"I'm sorry he just does that sometimes around new people," she said
I just shook my head to at least acknowledge that I heard her because I couldn't feel my leg at all because he hugged it so tightly
I tried to walk as normally as I could and I introduced myself
Hi I'm Dr.Johnson
I reached out my hand so she could shake it
Her hands were soft and she looked into my eyes while introducing herself
"Hi, I'm Nina ."
*A few hours later*
"So how did it go," Dom asked
"Ava told me you overtime in your session today with your new client" Dom laughed
"She fine ?" He asked
Mane leave me alone mane I'm just doing my job and you know Mya and I are together
Dom rolled his eyes and sighed
"Chris seriously stop being so delusional"
"Now we gon go to this club celebrate your birthday and just try to have some fun alright"
I scratched the back of my neck while walking out of my house locking the door looking back as I closed and thinking about changing my mind
"You alright," Dom asked yeah I'm just thinking about something
"Alright come on."
