SHADE: The Minds Of Psychos

They Think Like Us

A young man with glazing blue eyes and almost perfect hair wearing a fitted blue shirt, white jean and dark grey shoes , glances at the wall clock in the office his eyes parade around the room, his fingers rattle continually until a bearded man dressed in plain white sleeve shirt and brown pants, alongside a pair of white sneakers steps in.

" Hello Perez! How are you today? " asked the bearded man

" I'm alright James, how's the wife and kids? " replied Perez as he slouched in the couch to feel more comfortable.

" Now we said no talk outside, your progress report, I'll indulge this once though, they're all fine " says James as he walks over to his chair adjacent to the couch.

" Any more tendencies, dreams or outbursts happened in the last 96 hours I should know of ? " says james , his hands dive deep into his pockets, pulling out three blunts, puts one each on the gap between his ears and hear, holding the last.

" Nope!" I wake up everyday by 6 AM, curled up in my blanket, I stair at the ceiling wondering if today'll be different from the rest. I get myself up by 6:45 and take my shower , you know regular stuff, get my breakfast and take a music break or something else,  I've been going to work too you know,doing stuff I even met someone the other week, at the end of our last meeting " Perez replies staring at James then smiles, as James pulls out a lighter

" Still putting everything to detail I see, that's a good trait of yours you never liked to drop, you said you met someone last month? How's that been going? " says James as he lights up a blunt, taking a deep breath

" Its alright I think I really like this one she's sweet, nice, prettier than the prettiest flower in the garden, she's like the white rose in a bundle of red roses " replied Perez looking outside the office window glancing at the skies

" sounds like quite the catch but does she like you back? Does she reciprocate?" Asked James, who rolls up his sleeves

" She does, we even went out on a date once or twice, I learnt somethings oh and this past week I was at her place"

" That's amazing you're making such good progress, it's good you're stepping out of your shell "

" Did you tell her about your condition?" Asked James as writes down on his notepad

" Not yet but soon, you said I was making progress so I think it's best not tell her yet" he replies as he reaches for his handkerchief.  " hey Doc I wanna tell you a story."

" Sure but make it short. " said james as he drags the blunt inhaling deeply

" Okay, I'll make it short! It goes like this..."

He pauses for a minute as james exhales the fumes slowly.
