Stardew Valley Shane X Female Player: Want A Light?

Chapter 20: Doctor's Orders

Poke's POV:

I finish up my farm work before I walk to Harvey's. I walk there slowly while thinking about everything. I don't understand anything, do I? I walk into town and see Jas playing with Vincent and I smile, losing all of the dark thoughts. I finally reach Harvey's Clinic and come in. I see him working behind the counter and he looks down at me. ((A/N: From what I heard based off of pixel sprites, Harvey is 6' 2"... Poke is 5' 0"...)) Harvey speaks to me, "Ah, there you are Poke. Come with me, I'll take you to the office after we check your BMI and sight."

I follow Harvey into a hallway and he counts my BMI and my sight before we go into the office. He asks me to sit on one of those seats you see in a Nurse's office in school, or at a doctor's office. He sits down in a chair and then speaks to me, "Well your BMI is healthy, your sight didn't change enough for you to get new glasses. Now it's time for the main check-up." I remember that they have to check your blood pressure and I start to worry. Harvey sets up the blood pressure device and starts using it. It's right on top of a cut I made recently, so it hurts like hell. I start wincing and Harvey notices, "Poke? Are you ok?" I felt so much pressure on that spot and it suddenly stops. Once Harvey it stops Harvey stands up and takes off the device and looks down. I decide to look down.

Crimson red blood, is all over my arm on one side.

I start breathing heavily when I see it and Harvey gets some disinfectant, a rag, and cloth bandages. He lifts up my sleeve and sees them. All of the scars I made on my own on that arm. Harvey's eyes widen, but tries to stop the bleeding. It eventually stops and he uses the disinfectant to make sure it doesn't get infected. Then he wraps it around with the cloth bandages, afterwards he looks up at me. I felt shame and embarrassment all around me.

"Poke..." He sighs and continues, "I know where these are probably from, but... You still shouldn't do this to yourself." He looks at me with both concern and seriousness. "Do you want to get a counselor too? It might be for the best, and you probably should after what happened to you..." I never liked to talk about things like this, but Harvey's probably right. "I think you're right Harvey. I probably should..." We then talk about the treatment options before I leave and decide to head home, covering the blood o my sleeve.

I need help... But I'm afraid...
