Love the sinner, hate the sin 21
Helping his focus...
It was almost an hour and Seth was still struggling with the Winnie puzzle " Do you want to look at the sample photo again???? I yawned.
" No, I can do this...Seth assured.
" No, you can't... You have been trying for almost an hour, I yelled.
" Why are you yelling at me??? Seth whimpered.
" Just master the photo one last time…
" Wowwww….look who is talking about manners, Yet you are so arrogant to a patient, Seth scoffed.
" All am saying is this, It's just a cartoon character yet you are struggling so hard... It's a yellow bear...I yelled at him.
" You can give it a try if you think you can do better….Seth retaliated.
"You are the patient, not me…..
" You guys want some coffee???? Daniel asked from behind.
" YES…... We said in unison
" I said it first, Seth frowned.
" Does it matter, He has two jerk faces….
" Did you hear what she called me???? What kind of a therapist does that???? Seth shouted back at me
" Awwwnn is that Winnie Pooh, Daniel ignored the conversation.
" Yes, He has been struggling forever…
" I wasn't struggling, You were the one who told me about focus, Seth crossed his hands around his chest.
" That piece goes here, Daniel gave Seth some direction.
" Finally the smart one, I rolled my eyes…
" Am not dumb, I'm just not a fan of cartoon characters….Seth muttered.
" See you guys later….. You seem busy, Daniel smiled.
" Okay…., I smiled.
" I knew what it was, Seth said.
" No you didn't, I scoffed.
" Yes I did, Seth frowned.
" Am going to take a quick nap right here and by the time am up, You should be done with the puzzle, I commanded.
Seth's POV .
I couldn't focus on the cartoon character because of the dream I had last night, It was a memory of one of the worst days of my life my birthday, I remembered how my mom planned a surprise birthday for me but my dad just had to spoil the occasion with his harsh and inhumane words, Everything was supposed to be perfect it was my first birthday in a new town, My mom had invited all my friends from school, She made a lot of cakes and sweets, She put all her effort into making it a memorable day of my life indeed it was a memorable day but it brought only bad memories to me, How my dad reacted when he saw all the party balloons, The cakes, and the people. My dad brought me inside and locked me in my room, I cried but nobody could hear me eventually everyone left and my mom was crying in the living room, My dad opened the basement and I tripped outside, It was one of the worse days or if not the worst day of my life, It was traumatizing and heartbroken I couldn't comprehend why he did any of those things to me.
" Why…..I muttered.
" What's wrong??? I woke up mistakenly scattering the puzzle into pieces, Seth wasn't focused on the puzzle, He was lost in whatsoever he was thinking. He wasn't only deep in his thoughts, He was crying bitterly, I didn't know what to do or how to react, I haven't seen him so deep in tears.
" Seth are you okay???? I stood up looking at Seth concerned and confused.
" Please stay like this for a while, Seth held my hands, His head was down and his eyes closed, He was weeping bitterly all I could do was pat his head.
" Are you okay???? I asked.
" I'm fine, He stood up to leave.
" If you are not fine, The best thing to do is to tell me what's going on and I will help you with it, That's what I'm here for...I said to him.
" You can't solve everything Sandra, Seth barked at me.
" I can't solve anything but I can help solve some part of it, Seth you have to be open and sincere with me...I pleaded.
" You can't solve anything, Seth stuttered his voice was shaky and he was about to cry.
" You can wait till when you are comfortable with talking about such issues with me if you don't want to talk about it now, I walked out.
Seth's pov.

I couldn't help the tears that were running down my cheeks as Doctor Sandra walked out, I didn't want her to see me in such a state so I waited for her to leave before I wept again, The piercing memories of me crying alone in that dark basement was more painful than stab wounds.
" Are you sure you are okay ???? Tessa gave me a cup of coffee.
How did she know that I was crying, It was obvious because of the way I was sobbing but I thought she left for her room. It was embarrassing to cry in front of her but I couldn't help it.
Tessa's pov.
It was obvious he wasn't okay but I couldn't make him talk so at least I should be able to calm him down.
" You don't look like the tough Seth I know If you keep sobbing like a baby. I said giving him a napkin.
" I wasn't crying, Seth looked away and dried his eyes.
" I didn't say you cried, Let's go inside it's going to rain soon, I suggested.
" I will be inside in a minute, Seth muttered.
" Okay, I will go in when you go in, I coaxed Seth gently until he agreed to come inside with me.
" Doctor Sandra I need your help with something, Eddy shouted from his room.
" I'm stepping out for a while, I grabbed my purse and ran out.
" Where is she heading??? Adrian asked.
" Adrian where have you been?? You have been locked in your room for a while now, Jimmy asked.
" None of your business, Adrian walked to the fridge took some milk, and went back to his room, He was still heartbroken that Lisa wouldn't talk to him.
" Shit it's pouring heavily outside, Daniel frowned shutting all the smart windows.
" Is it raining???? Eddy asked.
"It is, Jimmy scoffed walking towards his room.
" She didn't take an umbrella, Seth frowned looking outside.
Tessa's pov.
I wasn't planning on going out today but I needed help urgently, It was strange to me that Seth who was perfectly fine when he started doing the puzzle but when I woke up he was soaked in tears, It was obvious that he recalled something and he wasn't going to sleep tonight or he was going to sleep but he was going to sleepwalk, I needed help from Ron and I needed it first but it started to rain heavily and I didn't take any umbrella with me.
" Shit, what am I going to do ???? I muttered looking around for shelter.
" Look who was worried about me getting wet, Who is wet now???? Seth asked from behind covering me with an umbrella.
" Seth……
" Don't be touched, I was going to get something at a mall, Seth lied.
" You are going to a mall I doubt, I smiled.
" I didn't come to pick you up or whatsoever, I was going to get something and I knew you possibly won't have gone far away and you didn't take an umbrella, So…..
" That's sweet, caring, and also similar to coming to pick me up, I laughed.
" Are you going to keep bickering rubbish, Seth said moving away from me, Leaving me to get wet.
" I'm sorry, I ran to where he was standing.
" Where are you going??? Seth asked.
I couldn't tell him I was going to a therapist to help me, help him with his situation so I just had to think of a perfect lie.
" I wanted to take some fresh air, I lied
" The garden as a more healthy breeze, You know that right???? Seth asked.
" Well I do know that but I wanted to step outside a little bit, I smiled.
" Hmmmmm, You boasted about the weather condition and still didn't take an umbrella with you, How careless...Seth scoffed.
" Hey don't scold me, I was too occupied with thinking about you. I didn't even remember to take an umbrella with me, I frowned.
Seth felt sad that she was feeling a little bit stressed out because of him and he was not even helping matters.
" You can ask me anything you want and anything relating to the therapy, I will tell you everything...Seth sighed.
" Are you serious???? I exclaimed.
" Don't make me change my mind, Seth said hiding his smile.
" No no don't, See even the rain stopped falling….I smiled.
" Yeah, he did….
" Where is your car ????? I asked.
Seth realized he didn't even come with his car, He just wore a face cap and a face mask to cover his face and ran after her.
" Ohhhh Uhmmm my car...Seth stuttered.
" Awww did you run down here to look for me, I smiled jumping around him?
" You are something else, The rain stopped you can go to wherever you are going, I'm going home... Seth scoffed walking towards the estate.
" Heyyyy waits up, Someone might recognize you...I laughed.
" I'm on a disguise idiot, Seth said pointing at his face mask.
" Still am coming with you, It will be boring walking back by yourself, I said catching up with him.
" It would be better than walking with you, Seth said speed walking.
" Don't be like that, Where is that sweet Seth that ran here just to give me an umbrella, I teased.
" I didn't do that, Seth objected and I burst into laughter walking behind him as we head home.
