As I get ready to go meet Dr Mike I decided to call my best friend

Esther: Hey Ron

Sharon: Sup

Esther: How is it going?

Sharon: Great, guess what?

Esther: Matt proposed?

Sharon: Yes yes, I'm soo excited

Esther: Aww, I'm happy for you girl. Soon you'll be Mrs Davies

Sharon: I know right. How is it going with you and Tom?

Esther: Good I guess, also Tom thinks I still miss George and the worst part is it's true, I miss George and everything about him

Sharon: Seriously girl you need to forget about George, he is a past. He doesn't deserve you, if I see him, I'm going to punch him for you or probably kick him in the nut

Esther: (chuckles) You really don't have to babes, Things with Tom went almost bad when we had sex and I mentioned George name

Sharon: Oh my God, you did not

Esther: I did, Tom was upset with me but was understanding when I explained why I mentioned George name

Sharon: You need help girl, I wouldn't lie to you

Esther: Speaking of help, i went online and searched for therapists near me and I saw one, I'm waiting for time to reach so I can go meet him

Sharon: Okay then, you really should sort everything out, if you don't want to end things with Tom, you should forget about George

Esther: I will

I didn't know Tom was listening to my conversation with Sharon, it was horrible

Tom: I know you still think of your ex boyfriend

Esther: No I don't, it's not like that babe

Tom: Then what is it like? Also why are you planning to see a therapist? You didn't even tell me about it

Esther: I was going to, I promise

Sharon: I'm still here, Tom please I don't want you yelling at my bestie. You should understand that it's hard to forget about your ex boyfriend. Didn't you just recently broke up with your ex girlfriend? Don't you miss her?

Tom: I'm sorry but this isn't about her or you Sharon

Esther: Tom please don't talk to my best friend like that (Alarm ring) Also it's time to go to the therapist, I'll talk to you later Sharon

Sharon: Alright, be good to her Tom. Love you, mean it.

Esther: Bye. hate you, kidding. (End call)

Esther: I'm soo sorry I didn't tell you anything about seeing the therapist, I didn't want to ruin our relationship. It's true I still think of George, I can't get over him so I thought of meeting a therapist and also I was really going to tell you

Tom: When? When did you plan to tell me?

Esther: Now is not the time to argue please, I'm late for my appointment. Let's talk when I get back, please. (I left)

I ordered Uber to come pick me as I was yet to buy a car, the Uber came and dropped me at the location and I nervously knock on the door. Standing in front of me was a bit young, good looking man, he doesn't look his age but that wasn't what I was here for

Esther: Oh sorry, wrong house

Dr Mike: Are you Esther? Esther Donald?

Esther: Yes, I'm Esther Donald

Dr Mike: Come in, welcome

Esther: Thank you

His house is just like him, good looking, beautiful and clean. I guess he isn't a messy type

Esther: Your house is beautiful and perfect also clean

Dr Mike: Haha thank you, do you want me to get you something to eat or drink?

Esther: Anything is fine, thank you

He went and I continue to admire his house and then I saw something that made me smile, a picture with him and a dog, a cute smiling Pomeranian, I continue to look at the picture and I didn't even know when he came back

Dr Mike: The dog died a month ago, his name is Leo, I love him and I miss him. People suggest I get another dog but I'm not ready to forget about him (he hand me the drink he brought)

Esther: Thank you and also I'm soo sorry about your dog, Leo is a good name tho

Dr Mike: Yeah, I gave him the name according to his star sign

Esther: Cool

Dr Mike: So tell me, what's wrong with you? I mean why did you decide to see me?

Esther: It's about my relationship, I have an ex boyfriend that I can't seem to get over and it's affecting my current relationship, everything my new boyfriend does reminds me of my ex boyfriend. We even had an argument before I came here

Dr Mike: (Sit down) That's terrible, I think I have something I can give you to read to forget about your ex boyfriend, what you have right now is an addiction, also was he your first?

Esther: What do you have for me to read? Also yes, George is my first

Dr Mike: George? Oh the ex boyfriend. Give me a minute or two, I'll go get the book.

Esther: Alright, take your time

He left and came back with a lemon green book

Dr Mike: Here (he handed me the book)

Dr Mike: It's a good book, if it doesn't help you can always come back

Esther: Alright, Thank you. How much do I pay?

Dr Mike: Don't worry about it, please bring the book back when you're done reading it. You know I have clients that might have the same problem as you

Esther: (chuckles) I will bring it back, thanks a lot for the book and not making me pay for your time

Dr Mike: It's alright

Esther: I'll be on my way

Dr Mike: Do you want me to drop you? I mean I saw you came with an Uber

Esther: Oh haha, you don't have to

Dr Mike; Don't worry, I'll drop you

Esther: Alright then, Thank you very much

He dropped me off at my house after I told him where I lived, while on the ride with him, I worry about Tom. I hope he doesn't break up with me after our argument that we might have when I get back home.
