"I turn around and do exactly what she said from the beginning, 'live my life'."
Valerie and I walk out of the therapist's room. The bags under her eyes are way worse than mine; for the past few days, she's had the same recurring nightmare over and over again. I've been awake ten times to comfort her or rush her to Doctor Thorne's office or the medics. Her depression has gotten worse; most times, she'd just shut herself out. No matter how many times I'd ask her what's wrong, she'd smile and say, "I'm fine."
"Hey, Liv, what's up?" I blinked and turned my head towards Val (Valerie). Her midnight eyes were dull but had a little sparkle to them. I shake my head. She pats my head and says, "Don't worry about me, okay? Go to your classes. I'll take my meds and rest up, okay?" I nod hesitantly.
"Are you sure, Val? I could-"
"I'm fine, Liv. Take your classes. I'll be fine, okay!" She cuts me off harshly. I step back a bit. This attitude of hers sprang up a week ago. If you don't agree with what she says, she'll shout harshly at you. I must have looked surprised because she clenched her teeth and walked away, hopefully to the dorms to take her meds and rest. I don't want her falling too deep into depression. I'm scared for her. What if- I shake my head slightly. Val would never do that. We'll never let go of each other. So, as Camille, one of my friends, dragged me away to class, I forced myself to believe Val and I were going to be fine.
