Liam's Pov

"And Mr Payne, that's what happened to me. I honestly don't know what to do with my life after dealing with such an experience in my head". I heard one of my usual patients say.

He had a fiery flame red hair, with the sincerest dark brown eyes, and he was about seventeen years of age. After high school, I went to college in order to become a Psychiatrist. At first I didn't choose that route of career, but it all changed when I heard my parents died on their way to my graduation. I was so sickened with depression I didn't know what to do with my entire life. I stopped talking to everyone for so long. So long that I swear I thought my close lad Harry thought I died since I haven't been returning his calls or messages. Currently I'm still in college to become a Psychiatrist, but I'm doing residency at a children's hospital for three years. This is my first year, but I've already gotten the hang on things.

I propped up in my chair and cleared my throat before giving the solution to what was wrong with one of my returning patients.

"Well Ed, I know it's tough for any child to see their parents battle amongst each other in arguments. Let alone the abuse you saw your father put on your mother. The reason in my opinion to why you try to distance yourself from others is because you've been through pieces of abuse from your father as well. You need to realize that not everyone that says they love you will hurt you like he did. Now I know your mother and you have a close bond, am I correct?"

He nodded in agreement.

"Splendid, I thought so. She's contacted me countless times in wanting to know what's wrong with you and why you try not to get close with anyone. You need to open up more to people Ed. Your father isn't going to come back okay?"

I reached my hand over to pat his knee. I wanted him to know not everyone is out there to hurt him in life.

"I know Mr Payne, but sometimes those nights of him coming in drunk and hurting my mother really scarred me. I don't care if I'm hurt, it's just, that's my mum and I love her with all my heart."

"I love you with all mine as well."

Both of us turned over to see Ed's mother standing in the door frame.

She walked in cautiously.

"Ed, he isn't going to come back, I promise. But you being so distant to me and other people isn't healthy for you. I want you to go through life happy, not having fear of loving somebody. Go out and enjoy your life."

I started to tear up in his mothers words. My whole life I wanted a close relationship with my mother. Well, I did have a close relationship with her, it just caved in so fast that I got whip lash from it.

Ed got up from the black leather couch and went to go hug his mother. The two were inseparable from that point.

"I love you mum, and I know that I need to let myself be loved by people, but it's hard. Though I know with time, it will happen."

"And it will." I said while getting up from my chair to walk towards them.

The two stopped hugging and gave their attention to me.

"Mr Payne, thank you so much. You've did wonders for my son Ed. I know he'll visit you more, but you've already did so much for him."

She grabbed my hand and started shaking it vigorously.
