Kim's Pov:I've been heading off to therapy for the past five months, and it completely sucks. It makes me feel like a sick person stuck in some asylum, even though I shouldn't say that but it's what I feel.
"This is so not how I wanted to spend my 16th birthday mom."
"Kim not this again please."
We were in line and my therapist called us in . Both of us sat down and turned forward to my therapist, Dr.Gundy.
"Hello Mrs-?" He started off saying
It's been a while after my dads death, and my mom still hasn't changed her last name.
"Mrs.Wood." She said
"Alright. So Kim how have you been feeling lately?" Dr. Gundy said
"Good."
"Any problems at home? Any anxiety? Any fears?."
I didn't want him to worry about me, even though I can predict that he basically doesn't really care, so I decided to tell him the truth, the truth that's been bugging me .
"Not really." I hesitated
"Kim, it's alright you can tell us, we don't allowed any judgements here so it's okay you're free to talk."
"Am I?"
"Excuse me?"
I took a deep breath.
"Okay Well I'm afraid that my mom will get hurt again . I still have nightmares of my dad sometimes and I just want to move on and be happy that's all, are we done here now?" I said
My mom looked at me with such guilt but who could blame us? We've been through hell, and all I just want to do is just move on.
"Kim look at me." My mom said
I looked at her.
"I promise you no one will ever hurt me again, and even if they try I won't let them hurt me or you."
I didn't want to cry. But hearing my mom say that brought me a lot of pain inside and I suddenly felt happy that she finally said something, so I hugged her.
After the hug was over , I looked toward to my therapist and said....
"I think I'm good now, I don't want to be a burden but I don't think I need therapy anymore, I hit reality and now I'm not so scared anymore, thank you for your help Dr.Gundy." I said
"That's exactly what I was about to say, You guys can go now." He smiled
We both got up and reached for the door but Dr.Gundy stopped me and said.
"Good luck Kimberly."
I smiled and closed the door behind me and looked over to my mom who was waiting for me at the end of the hall.
"You wanna head to the mall?" She said
"Sure but I don't want you to spend any money
On me.""Kimberly I have to, it's your 16th birthday."
"Fine but I'm serious for my 17th birthday, I want nothing at all."
"Yeah right." She laughed
Once we headed to the mall we passed a few stores that had tons of cute clothes , but there was only one store that got my attention which was a music store. Music was my thing, I loved it so and I looked over I saw a piano display on the window , as I looked at the price I might say it wasn't that bad.
"You play piano?" A guy asked me
"Huh?"
I looked over to see a tall handsome brunette and he looked pretty familiar."No but I've always wanted to play one. I'm thinking of buying it."
"That's nice. I have one just like that at home and a piece of advice , it's going to be pretty hard learning one. I've struggled plenty of times but you'll get the use to it."
"I'm sorry never quite got your name?"
"I'm Shawn." He said
I was processing on where I've seen him before and just when I realized he's a popular singer from vine but now I think he got signed to a record label.
"As in Shawn mendes?"
Yes that's me."
"What are you doing here in Miami ?"
"Oh I'm on tour for a few months which sucks because I won't be able to spend my birthday with my family."
"I'm sorry, but hey at least you'll be around a lot of people that care for you."
"Thanks, you know what you're actually pretty chill. Listen my birthday is next week I was wondering if you'd like to come to a party my friend is throwing ."
I wasn't sure if I was dreaming right now, I mean finally getting out of therapy? Meeting Shawn mendes? What else me singing in front of thousands of people? But anyway I decided to go , I mean why not ?
"A party?" I said
"Yes buts it's only a small one, don't worry ."
"Sure that's awesome!"
"Do you have Twitter? So I can dm you?" He asked
"Um yes it's @Kimberly ."
"Awesome I'll dm you the details, see you soon Kimberly , bye." He said smiling
I waved goodbye and completely stood there in shocked and I think a few other girls noticed who I was talking to but they were too scared to ask, so I saw them went after him.
I looked back at the display and thought for a real long time if it was a good idea and it was, so then I went inside to finally get that piano.
