“Sometimes,” She said shyly before elaborating. “It was worst in the Academy when people talked about home and family, I would get angry or upset sometimes both.” Kala blinked the tears back that she had been soo dutifully hiding, she hated this part of the conversation. “I would let myself become consumed in my work, I wouldn’t eat or I’d have to blow off steam in the holodeck but not the good kind, I’d just shout for hours at my father telling him what I thought, that I miss him and my family but never have I let it affect my work, I am proud of what I have achieved even if he isn’t.”

“And it worked?” Guy asked as he leaned her some wipes “Sometimes human-computer interaction can help. Sometimes, instead human-human interaction is the key. If the holodeck instead of helping you did harm you, why you’d not try go for a week on your homeworld and talk with your family in a neutral zone?” Guy posed down the notebook and the pen “I did try it. I failed if I need to be completely honest, my mother is still by this idea, my father instead has changed partner and doesn’t even recognize me as his son by now. But yet, it helped me to… to end this pain. Somewhat I realized that even if I am stuck with this job, I know I can now do whatever I want, because I do not have a family anymore to trust to.
It came to a price tho and that’s the fact I am seen like a jerk, which I believe I am because I limit my interaction. I am not that trustworthy and willing to trust. Still I’ve tried to reason with them and… and I believed in them again for once again.” He stared at Kala’s eyes directly almost dropping a tear himself keeping his composure and serious face.

Taking the tissues Kala dabbed the corner of her eyes before crunching it up as if to capture the sadness and lock it away. “Its honestly only temporary pain relief and I just don’t know if I can face them, him nor the other way around. I haven’t seen then face to face in so many years” She added before watching the man in front of him now face his own personal emotions as if Kala was his mirror.

“If you want to know and try to resolve it, this is one of the way. It is direct and you can face those who hunts you all the days. Otherwise we can try a more passive approach and try pass some time together talking about beautiful things happened to both of us.”

“I think I’d like that, I don’t think I have ever spoken to anyone not even another counselor this in-depth about… my problems” Kala said in a shaky voice before adding. “Its nice in a sadistic way to have someone who knows my pain, I would like to spend more time with you, over the next few months?” She asked in a questioning tone “Just talk about anything but this… until I’m ready again?”
