Therapy Session.
Therapy seemed like such a joke. I mean sitting on a dingy old couch that looked like it once was white but is now the color of mayonnaise while an old lady asks me how I feel?
Yeah, not too fun.
"Harley? How do you feel?"
"About what? Global warming? It's not that great I mean I'm hot already so like that won't be fun. Especially for those polar bears," I babbled ignoring what Mrs. Abram really meant.
Mrs. Abram glared at me from behind her glasses, not at all amused. Mrs. Abram was a bitch.
"No dear. How do you feel about what happened that night?" Mrs. Abram asked staring me down. I really think the bitch wanted me to lose it in her office someday. She went on and on about how she didn't want to be seen as a therapist but as a friend.
Like I'd be friends with someone who wore fake leather.
I sighed rolling my eyes to repeat what I said every time my parents made, forced, me come here. "I'm upset."
I could tell Mrs. Abram was annoyed, she was always annoyed with me. I didn't really blame her for being annoyed. I mean I didn't ever tell her anything. It wasn't going to help I mean how do you get over something like that? How was talking to an old lady with a gross more than fuzzy upper lip going to make me say, 'Wow I feel so much better now thanks, Liv who?'
"Harley," Mrs. Abram sighed, "I can't help you if you don't help me. How does it feel knowing what your boyfriend did to your best friend?"
And that's when I lost it.
"How does it feel? How does it feeling knowing my boyfriend MIGHT have murdered my best friend? I feel annoyed that everyone is saying my boyfriend DEFINITELY murdered Liv and Liv is dead and isn't it such a fucking tragedy. It is a fucking tragedy. I saw my boyfriend sitting in a pool of my best friends blood with no emotion at all. I saw my best friend dead in the water surrounded by blood with a gaping slash in her neck and bruises around her neck. They covered her neck at the wake you know? Like no one knew it was there. Like no one fucking knew that Livs dead body had a fucking slash through her neck. Like she wasnt brutally murdered. But yes it feels great. Are we done now?"
Maybe I have lost it.
