"Fay! You're here again. Please come in, and take a seat." Doctor Vera's face lit up on seeing Fay.
She gestured to the seat across from her, and Fay nervously sat down.
Placing her shaky fingers on her laps, she adjusted on the chair.
"How are you doing this morning?" Doctor Vera asked with a smile on her face.
"A little nervous," she replied truthfully.
"I can tell, but why? I thought after a month of coming here, you'd be more free with me. Do I make you uncomfortable?"
"Oh no, it's not you," she shook her head. "It's me. I still haven't wrapped my head around the fact I'm actually doing this," she explained.
"Because you pushed aside the need to for a very long time?"
"Yeah, that. And something happened this morning that has me questioning my progress."
"Really?" The doctor picked up her notepad, and a pen. "Tell me what happened," she urged.
