After Mikey and I had our second argument and he revealed that he was gonna propose to me.Our relationship didn't exactly go so smoothly.
For a month and half we continued to sleep in separate rooms.
The only times we'd talk is when we were asking one another what we wanted to eat for the night.
Our parents noticed the rift in our relationship and suggested that we see a relationship counselor before we proceeded with an engagement or anything like that.
Mikey was apprehensive about it at first but I just wanted to try it to see if it could possibly help out relationship.
We're currently headed to the office where the counselor is. The ride over there was silent between us as he drove and I looked out the window at our surroundings.
When we got to the office and got to the door, he opened it for me.
Even when we weren't okay with eachother, he was still a gentleman to me. Somewhat.
The doctor was a handsome, tall, and dark skin bald man.
"Good afternoon I'm Dr. Avery."
"Hi I'm Arie."
"Mikey." He lowly said."
"It's nice to meet you two. Please take a seat so that we could get started."
As Mikey and I sat down, there was a slight gap between us but I just ignored it.
"So judging by the forms you submitted, there obviously seems some type of rift going on between the two of you. Correct."
"Mhmm." I said.
Mikey just looked around the room tapping onto the couch repetitively while sighing.
"What's causing this rift."
"Well about a month and a half ago, our relationship was exposed to the public without our permission. I just expressed to him about how I didn't want a public relationship because I don't want the fame that comes in it. He's already a famous basketball player, but being in the media and having people reporting news on me is just not what I want."
"And you feel as if he doesn't understand that?"
"Yes."
"Mikey."
"Hmm."
How do you feel about what she's saying."
"I feel like it's stupid. She told me that she feels like ima go back to my ex Maria cause she left a comment on the post of us."
"Arie what would make you think that?"
"I wasn't thinking when I said it. I'm sorry Mikey."
He scoffed and continued to look around the room.
He didn't look at me once since we started this counseling session.
"Mikey just blowing her off for apologizing when she realizes that she is wrong isn't going to make things better."
"I know but the whole situation just has me pissed off."
"Why?"
"Because I keep trying to tell her that no matter what, people are gonna say things and make comments about us. You just gotta keep going with life and ignore that shit."
"Arie what's going through your head?"
"I get what he's saying, but this all could've been prevented if we would have just kept the relationship private."
"I see." Dr.Avery said while flipping pages onto his clipboard.
"Let's move to another part of the argument that occurred between the two of you. Mikey what made you call her..a bitch?"
"She pissed me off."
"You pissed me off but you don't see me calling you names do you?"
"I didn't mean to call her that. I was just heated as fuck and so kissed off in the moment. I'm sorry." He said while quickly glancing at me.
"There obviously seems to be a lack of understanding between you two. Care to elaborate about any other issues the two of you are having."
"Well whoever I try to express my feelings to him he just blows me off and walks away. I don't want a child, I want a man who will listen to me and take in what I'm saying. He just storms off like a little kid whenever the argument doesn't go his way."
"Mikey why do you do this?" Dr. Avery asks.
"I just get tired of what she's saying."
"Care to elaborate?" He says with a curious look on his face.
Mikey sighs while running his hand through his hair.
"Whenever we're arguing or whatever you wanna call it; She just repeats herself like I don't understand her or something. I get what she's saying. But she fails to understand that once social media gets ahold of something, it's no longer in your control."
"And this is why you don't care what the public thinks of your relationship. Yes?"
"Yeah I don't care at all. They only see what goes on between us in the outside world. They come up with false stories and make rumors about everything but they never know what's truly going on. That's why I don't care. I know what goes on in my relationship, not them. They don't know us behind closed doors so it's no need to get worked up over then posting one picture of us."
"What do think about the comments people give on your relationship?"
"I already said this. People are gonna say things and it's up to you if you wanna let those comments affect you or not. She got mad because my ex said that I "downgraded" to her. I'm never going back to my ex nor will I ever."
"And that comment is what caused this argument correct?"
"Mhmm. But I learned a long time ago that you just have to ignore what people have to say about you because at the end of of the day they're usually just jealous and envy of you."
"Arie how do you feel about this?"
I didn't know what to do because all my emotions came to me at once.
I looked down as a tear slipped from my face.
"I think that we should wrap up this session for today Dr. Avery said.
"There is a major lack of understanding and communication skills that need to be resolved. If you two would talk to eachother more then things would go a lot smoothly for you two. Arie I get what you're saying and I can tell that you just need some time to adjust to being in the spotlight. Mikey I get what you're saying as well, but you have to remember that you've been in the spotlight for years. You're used to this and she's just having a hard time adjusting to it. But I do see the love between you two, and with some work you two will be just fine in the future. Enjoy your day."
Mikey got up to shake his hand while I thanked him and dried my tears.
Once Dr. Avery left the room Mikey same back to sit on the couch next to me.
He stared at me for a moment before saying, "It's okay."
More tears started to flow and I don't even know why.
He pulled me into a hug and I placed my head onto his chest.
"You're okay it's gonna be okay."
"I love you." I whispered out.
"I love you too." He said while kissing my forehead gently and hugging me tightly..
