‘My parents are making me see this new therapist,’ Collins said.
-
Riley raised her eyebrows. It unintentionally made her face look more disturbing. "What's a therapist? It doesn't sound good." Florence said. It sounded like two different words to him. One with a terrible connotation.
-
‘It’s like a doctor but for emotions,’ Collins said, looking back at Florence. ‘Except in this case my parents just want my therapist to get me to be more “normal”. Whatever that means.’
-
"I think you're pretty normal, in a good way. Normal is rare around here." Florence said. He appreciated the human look that Collins had.
-
‘Well, thanks. Hopefully if I go the hour without talking I won’t have to do that many sessions,’ Collins said, tucking her phone back in her pocket.
-
"or... You can tell them recipes... They'll get bored eventually... That's what I used to do." Riley said, chuckling. Florence put down his book. "I hope it doesn't take too much time. Therapist sounds like a jerk." Florence said
-
Collins gave a small smile. ‘I’ll make sure to try that, then. Some therapists are jerks, but I guess they do try to help.’
-
"their job is to help... If they don't help... They're not worth the time." Riley said. Florence nodded in support
-
‘Yeah. I just hate that my parents keep booking all these different ones when they end up not helping,’ Collins said.
-
"you have to keep on... Until you find a helpful one... Otherwise you won't feel better." Riley said "do they really help?" Florence asked
-
‘I haven’t met one that helps yet, but maybe that’s just a me problem. I’ve heard it works for some people,’ Collins said.
-
"they might... Just be taking... The wrong approach." Riley said. Florence didn't know much on the topic so he chose to say less
-
‘I guess I don’t make it easier, either,’ Collins said quietly.
-
"it's okay... To rebel against them... If you don't want help... They can't help if you don't want help." Riley said
-
‘I just want people to stop telling me there’s something wrong with me,’ Collins said, looking up at Riley.
