"Oh .. okay Rylynn our time is up for today but we need to pick this up here next week, I know that this is hard for you to relive week by week but it is best for you and your recovery"

"I know it is thank you Dr. Kenny I will see you next week"

"Alright sweetie get home safely tonight see you same time next week ?"

"Yes see you."

It was a cool August night in Washington I was so used to the west coast temperatures but I loved it here. I moved six months ago and left everything, I changed my name when I arrived and used every dime I had saved to rent an apartment near the university. I am renting a room from a sweet girl, Melissa she is my complete opposite tall blonde brown eyes and thin the kind of thin and beautiful you thought she just walked off the run way . She was very nice And seemed to be genuine, the only thing we had in common so far was our age I just turned twenty-four in May and we shared the same birth-date. On our day as she called it she took me out to a bar up the street and bought me my first drink it was the first time we hung out and really the only, it was fun but I soon realized it was just to soon. I wasn't ready for friends and fun , I had to create a new me.

While walking home I couldn't shake the feeling that o was being followed I keep turning back to see but it was strangely quiet for a Friday night I realize that it is only six o'clock but there are normally quite a few more people out when I walk home from mine and doctor Kenny's sessions. Her office is only about a half mile from my apartment so o decide to run.

"Hey girl, what's going on you look like your running from the cops" she laughs in a sarcastic tone

"Oh no, sorry Mel I just felt like getting home quickly I didn't mean to bump in to you I wasn't paying any attention I'm sorry " I say

"Ry you don't need to be so sorry all of the time I was just heading out, you wanna came to a party tonight ? "

"You know me , no thanks I need to get ready for work in the morning. Have fun though be safe "

I say trying to sound casual not like I think I'm being followed and I'm terrified. I had just started to feel like he found me I know it's not possible ,but sometimes I just feel like he is watching me it is the worst feeling I have ever felt despite my past. His eyes felt like they could burn a while right through you, what he did to me was the worst form of torture I have ever been through.

After Melissa Left I locked both locks on the door and went to my room and checked to make sure that the windows were all locked and covered.

" I am safe, I am alone, He is not here he cant be it is not possible, he will not find you !"

I tell myself over and over before I can go get in the shower and try to relax. I let the burning water run on my tense muscles, I stand there like that for what fill like a n hour the only reason i even get out is because the water is cold now.There are certu skip class ain things I am still getting used to like being able to shower when ever I wanted to and for as long as I want. Before i escaped him I could only shower when he felt I should which was about once a week and when he did allow me to shower he would stand there watching me, he said it was because he loved me. He controlled every part of my life I wasn't allowed any type of freedom but the personal hygiene was my favorite to have back.After taking a shower I do my homework for the next week, so I can focus on work after my classes and not worry about picking up any extra shifts I really need the money. I work at a local diner it isn't much so i have to work as many hours as possible so i can pay rent my phone bill and hopefully be able to get a car soon.When i look at my new phone i see that its already past eleven

"I guess I should go to bed now"

I say to myself, I am so lonely i miss my family I couldn't tell them where i was or my new number I told them i would contact them after a year or so when i knew i was safe from Him,

Monday morning Melissa woke me up i left a note on her door when i got got home from work last night it was four thirty am, I asked if she could make sure i was up for my eight o'clock class.

"Hey Ry why don't you skip class today you look totally spent."

" I know but I need to be there to take my notes but thank you for waking me I really appreciate it"

"No problem, see ya later!"

School is school I have always enjoyed Being in class I love taking notes well really I write everything my instuters say so when i sit down to do all of my assignments its like I'm still in lecture. I keep to myself at school it is easier for me that way I am not ready for any type of relationship. School pasts by quickly as did work for the week, Friday is my only day off I have two classes then I walk to Dr. Kenny's office for our two hour sessions this is also a very large expense.
