Experiments of Dr. parallax part 2

The unwanted heat from the early March has burned down the back of Anand's neck as he sits near the window with his back. He gulped as he eyed his therapist who was sitting in front of him, a last time before saying his words.

"I think this will be my last session with you as I don't seem to have enough money to pay for your fees."

His therapist, Dr.Vasu, who had his head buried in Anand's reports snapped towards the man in front of him.

"......And I might leave this city too." Anand spoke after taking a short air in.

Closing the file in his hands, Vasu pursed his lips looking towards Anand. "And? Where will you be going then?" He asked raising his eyebrows.

"My grandfather has a farm in my hometown. I think I should be staying there with my wife and kids." He spoke.

Nodding slowly towards Anand, Vasu decided to spoke. "I am assuming that what happened 2 days back has nothing to do with your mental instability."

Frowning his eyebrows towards Vasu, Anand glared at him before saying. "I am not mentally unstable! My grandma did all this to me!" He spoke with gritting his teeth, glaring towards Vasu.

Being familiar with this kind of reaction which Vasu gets evertime they talk about Anand's mental health, he was not at all amused.

He looked at him calmly before speaking. "I know...." Getting up from his chair he walked towards the glass window right behind Anand.

Heat waves caressed his face as he stood their putting his palm inside the pocket of his jeans.

" You have told me all of this many times, Anand. You see....." He spoke turning around towards the back of Anand.

Leaning back on the edge of the window he spoke. ".....as this is our last session and time limit is almost approaching.....I want you to tell me more....Tell me everything which you are planning to leave behind."

Anand clenched his jaw as some tears started welling in his eyes on Vasu's words. He huffed a lump of air before speaking. "The only person I ever had was my... Grandma and now she is also not there...."

He looked down towards his fingers as a tear drop slid down his cheek dropping down on his palm. "I don't know where should I start this from." He said.

Taking a deep breath Vasu pursed his lips. He started walking away from the window as he said. " Well....I would like to remind you that our conversations are always totally confidential.....But if you are still uncomfortable then you can leave it."

Anand blinked as he stared at nothingness. Clenching his jaw he shook his head to himself then spoke. "No doctor. I have to say it this time for the sake of my parents."

"Mm-hmm." Vasu hummed before sitting back down on his chair in front of Anand.

He gulped before speaking. "I am just.... Confirming?.... Because I am quite insecure when it comes to all this."

Leaning forward, Vasu placed his elbow over his thighs as he speaks. "There is absolutely no need to worry, okay? This is a patient to doctor agreement. I will be never leak our conversation anywhere. Whether you are planning some murder or wanting to do a heist." Vasu's words got a light chuckle from Anand. Vasu continued. "I will only give warning over it. It's not like I will tell this to anybody."

"Yeah." Anand whispered.

Huffing a lump of air out of his lungs he tried reducing that anxiety taking over him. "I am the only eyewitness of my parent's murder...." He started.

Vasu hummed on his words.

He blinked, gulping as he spoke. "I was there-" his voice cracked as he tried to speak. He took a break before continuing. " I was t-there when she was k-killing them." He took a long breath in trying to calm his furious self.
