"Are you okay?" she asked as she sat by my bed with a worried look and I nodded.
"Flashback?"
"Flashback"i said and she sighed.
"I have to call Mrs Garniette." Mrs Garniette ,was my therapist and doctor.
"Honey, go get ready, your food is downstairs. Feel free to go get it when you feel better.i'll be down in a bit".she said and left my room.I quickly got ready and was on my way to the stairs when I heard my mom's voice from a room down the hall.
"IT'S BACK GARN,IT'S BACK!!"my mom said with a breaking voice. "Yes I thought she was finally…okay... but suddenly this?! Please I don't want what happened to ever repeat itself."she said, finally breaking down.Before I could hear any more of their conversation,I headed towards the kitchen.
The savouring smell of bacon and eggs filled my nostrils but instead of making me hungry ,it made my stomach churn.I just twirled the food around my plate but quickly took a bite when my mom entered the kitchen. I didn't want her to get even more worried.
"Hun,how are you?" my mom asked and I told her I was fine.
"I don't think you should go to school today, you need to rest. Mrs Garn is on her way"she said and I nodded.
I was on the couch watching tv when I heard the front door bell,signalling the arrival of Mrs Garniette.My mum let her in.
"Hey Mrs Garniette" I said, hugging her.
"Hey Ava, I feel like I haven't seen you in years" she said with a smile.
“Likewise Mrs Garn”I said. We all went to sit in the living room.My mom excused herself to put something together for Mrs Garn.
“Alright dear, do you mind telling me about it?”Mrs Garn asked as she took out her notebook.
“It was another nightmare, I woke up shaking and sweating”I said.
“Flashback?”she asked
“Flashback”.I said and she took note.
“Do you have any idea of what could have triggered it,did you see anybody from your past or did someone tell you something related to your past?” She asked.
“Yes"i replied, the memories ,oming to my head “I saw someone”.
“Do you mind telling me who?”she asked and when she saw that I didn't reply she added; “I mean if you don't want to say, it's oka-"
“It was her" I said and her eyes widened a bit before she wrote something down “that would be all concerning that” she said and my mum entered with a plate of cookies and a latte.Mrs Garn thanked her and took a sip.
“So, on a lighter note,How's the gym ‘working out’?"she asked taking a sip of her latte.
“Well,the gym was good” I said and she looked at me with a confused look.
“Was? What do you mean was,you don't go anymore?”
“Well I haven't been there in like two weeks”I said and she looked at me and then my mum.
“Why?”She asked and I shrugged. Not wanting to tell her that i was running away from a green eyed someone.
"You need to go, it's really important" she said and this time I looked at her,confused.
"Why is it so important?"i asked.
"Becau-because" she stammered "it's good for you, mentally"
"Okay but what's the use? I mean it's not like I used to workout or anything".
"No,I'm not saying you should work out.i just need you to go there. The environment alone would help"She said and I sighed.
"Fine" I agreed and she smiled excitedly.okay???.
"So you'll start tomorrow?” tomorrow was too soon but because I didn't want to argue, I agreed.
We talked some more and laughed before she left.
Amber and Kayla came over later and started bombarding me with questions on why I didn't come to school . I just told them that I was fine and I'll be coming the next day and they left me alone. They stayed for a while . We watched movies and talked before they left. After they left,I retired for the night.
