Chapter 2 ➵ Help

I text Ethan shortly after I read the note.

Me: Ethan...Help please I...I- I have been abandoned.

The one thing she wanted to do she's done it.

Destiny It's okay. Do you want to come over and talk about it? :Ethan

Me: I'm coming over now...thank you.

I get in my car slamming the door in frustration, anger and sadness inserting the key into the ignition and driving off. I get to Ethan's apartment complex and read the piece of paper. 276 North Ave. Floor 69. Apartment 630. Woah he's on the top floor meaning he's one of those rich bitches. Well guess being a therapist is quite a high paying job so...

I take the lift up to the 69th floor and walk down the long, never ending hallway. I finally reach Ethan's Apartment after what seemed forever. I knock on the door and he rushes to it opening it almost instantly as if he was waiting for me to come.

I look at him, my eyes bloodshot from the crying I have previously done. He grabs me by the arm and pulls me into his apartment hugging me in the same way back at his office. "Come on Destiny. Cry I know you want to. Let it out let all your anger and sadness out." Ethan whispers into my ear. I do as I am told and I cry. I fall out of Ethan's grip and land on the floor hurting my knees a tiny bit. "I..I..I can't do it any more...I g...g..give up." I stutter. He lifts me up and carries me over to the sofa, laying my down with my head in his lap. He speaks softly "Destiny. I know you're upset. It's a horrible thing. I was abandoned too when I was your age. But I got through it and look at me now. I've got a good job and a good life. All I am missing is a partner or girlfriend.." I look at him and say "Ethan I have $2000 to my name. That's all she left me. The rent for our apartment in the Palm Apartment Complex is $1800. Meaning I will be left with $200 for food and to pay my phone bill. Getting a job at this stage is impossible. Rent is due tomorrow and-" He cuts me off by placing his finger on my lips then replacing his finger with his lips. My therapist just kissed me. He moves his head back and speaks "Don't worry about the job. I have got you covered. I'm offering you to be my assistant. I'm firing the old one as she's leaving soon anyways." My face lights up. "Seriously? Thank you so much Ethan." I straddle him wrapping my arms around his neck hugging him. He wraps his arm around me. "You're welcome." He says with a smile on his face.

➵ Ethan's POV |

She's happy. Well happier than when she first arrived. But what did I do. I kissed one of my patients. I couldn't help it I was out of control. Maybe it was just a mistake. But I don't regret it... At least I can see her 24/7 now.
