章節 136: Partners

Lina had been thinking about Dr. Hayama's last session the previous night wondering if he had helped her more than terrified her.

She still didn't like him and was uncomfortable around him, but she couldn't deny feeling like he was helping her open a box that would otherwise remain closed, leaving her vulnerable and helpless.

"Yes. I want to do it" she said, looking her husband in the eye, her heart full of determination.

Shen smiled at her. His wife was such a fighter — she never gave up. She made him proud of her everyday.

"This time, though, I want to go with you" he declared. He sensed an uneasiness around his wife. Perhaps it was nervousness and anxiety. None of this was easy for her. But he wanted to be there to hold and support her through it all.

"mmhm" she nodded, agreeing easily.
