Chapter 1 - Therapy

Jesse,Jesse,Jesse would you like to come back and have a seat the therapist said and she walked calmly to her seat and sat near her husband Ricky Williams . The therapist asked her if she wanted to share her feelings on what her husband Ricky said and she replied he just sat here and told me i was the reason he had an affair and Ricky replied I didn't have an affair. So you were just sitting there in the ice cream shop holding her hands Jesse said and Ricky replied I told you that Marilyn is a childhood friend. A childhood friend who you're close enough to hold hands with. Is that right ? Jesse replied. Don't lawyer me Jesse am not a witness on a stand , I'm your husband. Does Marylin know that or does your mother know that? [cell phone buzzes] Jesse [whispering] it's his mother. Ricky [sighs] look, I'm sorry. I know we only have 30 minutes left but it's my mom's birthday, she's pretty big on birthdays and sunday dinners Jesse added. I'm sorry we're gonna have to go Ricky told the therapist. No I'm gonna stay and finish the session Jesse replied you go . Jesse c'mon , I said you can go ricky . Ricky stood up and gave Jesse a kiss on her forehead and left . Does that happen often the therapist asked. She makes the rules and act like she is more a part of this marriage than anything else .he feels guilty because she is sick and he lost a lot of money from his company few months ago and he keeps begging me not to tell anyone or my friend Kate who is also my sister in law . I know a lot of men love their mothers but this kind of devotion is too much and I have never seen anything like this . I have always wanted to marry a guy who loves his mum but not this much jesse replied . I'm sorry I have to go now I don't want her to make it a big deal because I'm late [jesse stood up and left the therapy room] 

Jesse arrived at the restaurant and she met a man who had a client for her . Jesse is a well known lawyer along side her brother in law . Have you met jimmy Durante he's a really nice kid he comes here often and he needs a good lawyer the man said and he begged her to help him because she helped his daughter and she won the case . Can he come to your office tomorrow the man asked and Jesse said sure but on one condition can you send me the strongest drink here you know I have to deal with my mother in law and you know how she is and he replied sure I will . Jesse then proceeded to the table where everybody else was . Her royal majesty has arrived Jesse mother in law said immediately she walked in . Happy birthday mother in law Jessie replied . I want you to meet someone this is Marilyn . She's a wonderful and kind girl . I know why my son liked her so much . I wish she was my daughter in law [Marilyn laughs] . Well now that the queen has arrived, let's get the dinner. She asked Jesse to sit with her friend Kate which is also her sister in law and made Marilyn sit next to Ricky . Happy birthday mum I got you this gift and Ricky handed over the gift to the mum . It's from Jesse and l . [mom]You see Marilyn? What a sweet boy he is .
