433 - Aware of the consequences.

I lighted up my cigarette while I waited for my therapist to arrive; and when he finally came in, he gave me a disapproval look when he noticed I was smoking and told me:
"Smoking is a long term suicide."
I, very happy for the comment he had just made because it would take us straight to the point, answered him with a big smile in my face:
"I know, and that's the reason why I've come to see you."

432 - The unwanted guest.

I could feel him coming as my heart started to race and all my energy slowly started to leave my body, while my eyes filled up with tears getting ready for his arrival.

And the worst part is, that there is nothing I could do but wait for him with my arms wide open, because every time I've tried to scape or hide myself from him, he would find me, mad, and would make his visit longer than usual.

The end.

As soon as IT reached my hands, I asked myself who were ITs previous owners, if they had learned something form IT and how IT had ended in a second-hand book shop.
