Dark night of the soul

Chapter 129

*Jessica's POV*
"I'm here to see Sarah Paulson?" I say to the woman sat at the front desk. "She's in her room, room 32b. It's up on floor two" she says pointing over to the staircase and elevator.
I push the double buggy into the elevator and wait nervously. This will be the first time that I have seen her since that awful night. She was warned.

I knock on her door, hoping that she won't slam it in my face. I hear laughter from the other side of the door that leaves me with a peng of jealousy. The door finally opens, revealing a young ish woman with short strawberry blonde hair. "Woah, two actresses in less than a week, I'm lucky." She says wide eyed. "Hi, I'm Auburn" she says holding her hand out for me to shake. She walks out of the room and tells Sarah that she will give us some privacy. "Nice meeting you Jessica" she says as she walks past me.

I'm pretty sure that all of the staff think that we're crazy. I was fine on my own Jess, now I'm around other people who cut, and they tell their stories. Do you know how triggering it is to hear people talk about self harming or to have to tell my story in every counselling session. I was fine with Melissa Jess." I can tell how angry she is. I didn't think she would react this way.

"Sarah I'm sorry, this was for your own good" I say sternly. "For my own good!?" She raises her voice. She stands and turns to face me. "How can you say that locking somebody up is for their own good? You just don't know how to cope with me anymore, you don't know what to do with me. Well fine Jess, you don't have to do that anymore!" She shouts and storms off out of the room.

Did she just...
