“It’s alright, bạn can take your time” the doctor said. She stared at the young woman who was sitting opposite of her and hadn’t đã đưa ý kiến a word since she walked in.
“I need help” Bonnie eventually đã đưa ý kiến with a small voice. The doctor nodded. “That’s why you’re here. Acknowledging you’re powerless is the first step and you’ve taken it”
“I’ve done horrible things” Bonnie đã đưa ý kiến staring at the desk. “And my victims will carry the scars forever”
“That’s how things look like right now” the doctor said. “In time it could change. They can learn to live with it, as bạn should learn to live with the consequences of your actions”
“I’ve tried to apologize” Bonnie đã đưa ý kiến trembling. “I’ve never seen her with so much rage. And I’ve never seen him so scared. I’ve ruined everything, I threw everything I had away and there’s no way of getting it back”
“You wouldn’t be here if you’d really believe that” the doctor said. “Maybe bạn should start with telling me what it is exactly what you’ve done”
Bonnie leaned forward. “I tortured someone. I chained him up in a cage, like a lab rat, and I put his whole body in complete agony. And his cries sounded like âm nhạc into my ears” she said. “Now, bạn tell me, is there any help for me yet?”
