Shift in Sound || A Jemi Love Story

Episode 24- Only Option

Here's the new update! :) 

--------------------------------------------------------

Demi slammed the car door and held Rosabella’s hand tightly as she led her daughter into her Mom’s house. Demi closed the door gently behind her and entered into the kitchen, Rosabella behind her.

“Cookie’s yay!” she shouted loudly.           

She tried to climb up onto the bar stool but Demi had to help her and once she was on it, Dianna passed her a cookie.

“You’re late, and your eyes are puffy, what’s going on?” her mother instantly caught up on Demi’s changed appearance.

“Zac’s gone, he can’t procreate so he decided to leave, apparently I deserve someone better,” Demi explained, sniffling at the end.

“Men are stupid Demi, they think they know what’s best when they really don’t,” her mother told her a Demi nodded.

“I’ll see you soon Rosie, have fun!” Demi kissed her daughters hair before heading back outside.

This was going to be a very long day.

 

“You okay Demi?” Sel asked, sitting at her desk.

“Zac’s gone, he can’t have kids so said I was better with someone else,” Demi explained but instead of accepting Sel’s sympathy she just headed into her room to find Joe already waiting for you.

            She slumped down on her seat and took a long sip of her coffee before turning to face Joe who was staring at the floor in silence.

“So Joe, how you doing today?” she asked, clearly not interested in his problems with her own life going on.

“Who cares anyway,” Joe muttered.

            Demi sighed and once one tear left Joe’s eyes more followed and soon enough he was full on bleeding the emotions of his soul. Another sigh left Demi and she got up, walking round to where Joe sat on the recliner. She sat on it too and Joe leant his head against her chest as he sobbed loudly into her.

“I don’t know how long I can take this,” he muttered into her.

“Sel, Nick!” Demi called out loud to them and both of them stumbled through the door.

“What happened?” Sel asked, taking the place of Demi as another one of Joe’s sobs filled the room.

“He just started crying, I can’t help him anymore, not in one session. There’s only one option left that we can take that could work in a session,” Demi explained.

“What is it?” Nick questioned.

“Hypnotism, if Joe isn’t conscious than we can discover his inner most thoughts and he won’t know what he’s saying. Obviously he’s so stressed about something so it will be in his every thought and we’d be able to discover what it is. If we can tell the police that we’ve discovered what the issue is than surely he can stay with you because we’ll be able to go from there,” Demi explained, “The process would be completely harmless to him but he probably will be a bit emotional when he comes out of the sleep though.”

“Do what ever you have to,” Sel agreed, stroking Joe’s hair softly and Nick sighed.

“I hope it works, I can’t bear to see what it would be like visiting him in a mental institution,” Nick stated, looking down at his older brother with sorrow.

“Me too,” Sel concurred, “But are you okay Demi, you seem tired and stressed.”

“I’ll be okay when Joe’s better, I’m just getting a bit stressed at the minute with Zac and trying to deal with Joe,” Demi revealed, taking another long gulp of coffee.

“Sorry if we’re causing issues,” Sel apologised but Demi shook her head slightly.

 

“No, it’s fine, it’s my job.”
