Ebony's pov

Well this is awkward was all I could think. I'm just staring at the woman who looks to be about 45. She has shoulder length brown hair and honey colored eyes that look so sweet I was getting a cavity just looking at them. She was lightly tan and was was about 5'7. The older man looked to be about 47 with black hair and sea blue eyes. He was whiter than the woman and stood at about 6'1. Daddy was taller than him. The other man seemed to be about 19 maybe 20 and resembled the woman a lot but stood at 6'3. Daddy was taller than him as well but not by much. They all just stared at me. I think they expected me to say something so I took a deep breath and asked what I should call them.
"You can call us mom and dad," the lady suggested.
"But you're not my mom and dad," I say.
"Oh well then call me Sheya and my husband Robert or Rob until you fill more comfortable calling us mom and dad," Sheya replied quickly sounding slightly frazzled.
I saw Sheya elbow her son and heard a quick ow before he told me to call him Ryan.
After our introductions they talked about what was going to happen when I was discharged tomorrow, and they explained that Ryan was going to a college close by and was therefore, living with them. I quickly realized that this was so awkward even small talk didn't help.
My mind started to drift to a time when Daddy had a friend over and they're conversation got awkward. Daddy made me come and disentangle the web of awkwardness. I didn't like that friend but Daddy did and the friend came back many times.
Sheya, Robert, and Ryan finally left only to be replaced with a therapist named Dr. Bensen. She seemed nice but she asked me easy questions at first as well.
"What is your favorite color?" She asked.
"Purple and teal," was my reply.
"What us your favorite animal?"
"Wolves and horses."
"Who is Daddy?"she inquired.
I thought for a second before deciding not to answer. Daddy didn't like me talking about him a lot.

Dr. Bensen's pov

As I stared at this dark haired girl I can't help but feel pity. She has been gone 10 years and now she is expected to just accept her family who are basically strangers. I feel a strong desire to help her even if it takes all my time to do it. I believe in her I just wish she would trust me and open up more. I do however believe that her silence is because of this Daddy character. I am interested to see how these sessions are going to go.
