"Anika, back to earth", I heard Ryle calling me bringing me back to reality.
"Where were you lost?", she asked staring at me with concern.
I shook my head, "It's nothing. I just don't feel well", I reply calmly, typing on my laptop.
"I see. I think you should change your dress", she spoke as I looked up at her. I raised my brows in a questioning manners to which she pointed at the lower part of my white dress.
I looked down to find the lower right side of my dress had small fresh blood patches. Seeing that I cursed under my breaths.
"You don't need to regret that you're caught. Why do you keep doing that? What's the use of the therapy if you keep continuing all these?", she asked sternly, as if scolding me. I didn't look at her but stared somewhere just to not make any eye contact with her. She had told me numerous times to not do such things but I always end up losing control.
"I was not in my right mind Ryle", I replied looking at the ground.
I heard her sigh.
"It's not how things work Anika. Since you're taking help to overcome this, you need to put efforts too. Yes, you'll feel too much compelled to do that but you need to have some self restraint. You're a mother to a very young daughter and she doesn't have a father too. I know it's sensitive but it's the truth Anika. Just think before doing all these. Cutting yourself, hurting yourself won't get you anywhere", she spoke looking at me with so much concern and worry that I felt too guilty to even look at her. I knew I needed some self control but I was failing at certain points. And especially last night, I experienced such things that I couldn't control myself.
And today morning too, after seeing that scene, I fear something wrong will happen.
I won't tell her now that he was back because I needed to confirm it. I don't know if someone was pulling some stupid pranks.
"I understand. I'll get changed", was all I replied before walking over to the bedroom attached to my office cabin.
I changed into a white jumpsuit witha deep cut which revealed my whole cleavage. I just kept the coat over my shoulders before I fixed my look and got out of the room. Today I had a meeting with Mr. Quinn to discuss about the production process.
I didn't forget to apply my favourite fruit and floral perfume by Dior.
"Let's go Ryle", I spoke to her exiting the bedroom. She was already standing with her tab and the required files. She nodded with a smile and we both headed out.

"Good afternoon Mr. Quinn", I greeted Nathan with a slight bow while Ryle spoke what my hand sings meant, making sure my mask and sunglasses were on their place.
