I get into my car after school and drive to the address the lady on the phone gave me.
" Chloe Mason for Dr. Reeves. " I say to the receptionist.
" Okay, just fill out this paperwork and she'll call you when she's ready for you. "
I fill out the paper work and a few minutes after I'm done a nurse calls my name and I walk toward the room with her.
"Dr.Reeves will be with you shortly"
5 minutes pass by and finally I hear a knock on the door and a young lady comes in the door.
"Hello Chloe, I'm Dr.Reeves" She's says
"Hi Dr.Reeves, nice to meet you" I say
"So why are you here today" Dr. Reeves asks.
"Ummmm..." I trailed off.
After I explain everything to her she asks a few questions about my mom and my dad. I didn't tell her about my cutting and my anorexia because if was only my first appointment with her. She seems really nice and understanding.
"Well, our time"s up. When do you want to make another appointment? " She asked.
"Next week sometime if that works for you." I say.
"How about Friday at 9:30 am?"
"Sure, I will be here then" I say.
I have school on Friday but I will just get an excuse slip.
"Okay." She says.
I finally get home and when I walk into the house, Misty is standing right by the door with an angry face.
"Where were you, Chloe?!!" She yells
"I stayed after school to watch my friends basketball game" I say
"Tell me the truth!" Misty says
"that is the truth, now can I please go to my room?"
"No not until you stop lying and tell me the truth" "Fine. I went to see Dr. Reeves" I say.
"You are grounded" Misty says.
"For what? Trying to get help?" I scream.
"Can we please sit down and talk?" Misty asks nicely
"maybe later" I say
"I'm sorry I yelled." Misty said.
"I'm sorry I yelled too but I just want to go to bed. Can we talk about this tomorrow after school?" I ask.
"yes sweetheart but we should talk to your dad also" Misty says
"ok" I reply.
Dad comes home from work a few hours later "Hey ladies!" He said kissing Misty.
"Hey honey how was work?" She asks dad.
"Long." He says.
Now I'm not sure about telling him about my appointment right now. But if I don't then Misty will be angry so let's just get this done.
"Dad can I talk to to please?" I ask.
"Sure, what's up? " He asks.
"Um. Well, I went to see Dr Reeves today....."
"Who's that" He asks.
"A psychiatrist......." I say.
"Why did you go to see a psychiatrist?" Dad asks.
"Because I need help or at least someone to talk to" I say.
"No you don't, you have Misty, your friends, and I to talk to" he says.
"That's what I told her" Misty says.
"Ugh! Why can't anyone let me do what I want to do!" I ask.
"We are your parents and you do what we say" Misty says.
"You are not my mom so stop acting like it!" I yell.
I run up to my room and close the door once again turning to the blade I promised Melissa I wouldn't do anymore.
