WHO: Dr. Martha Jones and Jane Jones WHERE: Martha's office WHEN: Shortly after lunch WHAT: Shrink time! RATING: TBD
Jane stood near the entrance of Martha Jones' office, her mind a jumble of thoughts. She'd done this before, years ago, and she knew how it worked. Institutions weren't very fun, but at least this one wasn't in an actual hospital. And it didn't have that awful smell she hated, so she supposed there were some upsides. She wouldn't have to worry about money or food or shelter, at any rate, and after she was out...
She couldn't wait. If there was one reason to behave, it was to see Jamie again. So what if she had to talk to a shrink? She'd done that before. And so what if she had to stay here a month or two? She'd done that before, too. And in the end, things would be better. She could make everyone see that she was okay, and that she could take care of Jamie, if they let her. And Jamie would never leave her, she was certain of that. Jamie would be with her always, and he was the one person she could count on.
Taking a deep breath, she stood up straight and knocked on Dr. Jones' door, hoping this shrink wasn't awful.
