Memories

Kessiana's pov

Amelia♡:

Hey b, where are you? I checked you at your locker but you weren't there. Text me when you see this.♥

I walked into the class take my seat and put my books out on the table ready for the class when my phone makes a whistle sound and vibrates signalling that I have a message. I take it out to see who its from.

Amelia♡

How you doing kess. I'm coming in late today, something came up at home I'll tell you about it at lunch. Have u spoken to Aaron yet?

I wonder what happened at Amelia's house. She stays with her mum and her little brother. Her mum and her dad got divorced 3 years ago. She doesn't really have a good relationship with her dad since after the divorce. We have this in common the only difference is that her parents got divorced but mine didn't he left and never looked back. Probably got tired of us. We'll never know. I make sure to put my phone on silent mode and put it my pocket as Mr jackson walks into the class.

Griiiiinnnnng griiiinnngg

The loud jingle of the bell signalling the end of the the class and the end of school for the day finally rings and I release a sigh I didn't realize I've been holding.

"Make sure you research on the topics given, next class I'll be grouping you into partners. Good day class" Mrs Johannes said her stilettos making click sounds as she walks out of the class.

I grab my books and walk out of the class and towards my locker. I punch in the code grab my book bag and head to the parking lot.

I dump my bag on my bike started the engine and zoomed off. I pull over in front of a tall building with dark marble blocks. I park my bike and walk towards the door taking a deep breath.I walk into the wide oblong bright mordern reception area which is very familiar to me. I look up expecting to see Miss Jane the receptionist but I don't. I walk towards the long brown table and look down to find the minute young adult searching for something in the documents.

"Hi Miss Jane" I said startling her a bit. She looks up at me and smiles

"Hi kess how are you?" She said sitting up and holding a piece of paper. "I'm surprisingly ready for today's session" I said flicking a pen I found on the table, the pen making slight click sounds as it hits the table.

"I'll inform Mrs Ulrich that you are here" she said picking up the reciever of the intercom and dials Mrs Ulrich's number.

I nod in response.

"You can go in now" she says with a smile on her face and looks down to continue with her work.

Walking into the office, I took in my breath sharply and turned the knob, opening the door and walking in. I had decided to tell my therapist about the dreams, I have never spoken to anyone about them so I'm a bit nervous. Scratch that I'm really nervous.

"Hi kess, how are you doing today? Please sit whereever you want.

My eyes roam around the very familiar room painted with a light shade of purple with open french large but high windows and purple soft frail curtains shifted to the side.

White lilles delicately arranged in a vase and placed on the transparent white glass table. I walk towards the light cream sofa in which I always sit in It's a very simple but comfy sofa.

"I'm doing well thanks" I said as I dropped into the white sofa.

"So what have you been thinking and perhaps doing since our last session?.

Now how do I answer this , I want to talk about the dreams but I don't know how to bring it up..

And I'm definitely not telling her about what's happening in school. That's not something I should tell my therapist right?

I swallowed hard and said

"Uhm well I've been going to school and everything is fine with school. I've got some things on my mind though" I said looking up at her, my throat feeling dry.

She gives me a look that says you can speak at your own pace I'm here to listen.

"Can I get a glass of water first?"

"Sure kess". She gets up and walks to a brown wooden table with lots of drawers. There was a jar of water and some glass cups on it. She grabs a cup and carefully pours water in the cup and hands it over to me.

"Thanks" I collected the glass and took a long drink from the glass consuming more than half of the water. I cleared my throat preparing to talk. Mrs Ulrich's eyes locked on mine.

"So I've been having these uhm dreams some may call them nightmares but you get the point right" I adjusted in the sofa placing my leg on one of the arm rest and my head on the other.

She nods in response waiting for me to continue.

"Sometimes I'm running from someone or I'm in a dark room with blood dripping from my body, my hands tied" I close my eyes and I can again see myself in the dark room just like in the dream.

"There's this lady with a pen knife she cuts me in the arm, I called her name like I knew her. I feel like I know her, the other day I was at the mall I saw someone that looked exactly like her, she was staring at me and whispered something in the ear of a tall muscular man who started walking towards me.I guess I was hallucinating cause immediately Amelia pulled me out of there, I looked back and saw no one."

"So what do you think about these Mrs Ulrich" I asked opening my eyes.

She scrambles some things in a file and looks up at me. "Kess these could just be dreams as you've said and the woman you saw could also be an hallucination but there is also a probability that these dreams are memories"

I sit up instantly "D...do...does this mean I've started to regain my memories? Bu... but it doesn't make any sense. Why would I have been in a situation like that. It doesn't make any sense." I said shaking my head.

"Calm down kess, like I said they could just be nightmares but please make sure you tell me about them okay"

I nod in response and eyes roam and land on the wall clock. Wow its an hour already.

"See you in the next session kess, take care and say hi to your mum for me"

"Sure" I said as I took my bag and walked out of the office. That went better than I imagined. I didn't even think about the possibility of them being memories. But it just doesn't fit. I remembered the scars on my upper arm, did I get that from what happened in that room?.... but mum said I got them from the accident. They can't be memories, what could I have done that'll get me in that position.

"Bye Miss Jane" I said walking into the reception and towards the door. "Bye kess, take care" I heard her say before I walked out of the door.

I get on my bike and head home.

Pulling over at my house, I noticed the lights are turned on. We all know what that means. Mum's home, Yay it's movie night.

I walk into the house, the aroma of freshly popped corn and what smells like Mac and cheese. Yum... yeah I have a really sensitive nose.

Makes my stomach churn and my mouth water.. "Mum I'm home"
