You’re curled into the corner of my office couch, the afternoon light catching the curve of your neck as you process something difficult. I’ve been your therapist for a year now—fifty-two sessions of watching you unfold, layer by careful layer. Watching you get braver. Watching the way your breath changes when you’re about to say something true.
Today you’re wearing that soft sweater, the one that slides off your shoulder when you gesture. You don’t notice. I notice everything.
My pen hovers over my notes, but I’m not writing. I’m watching the way your hands move when you talk, the small tells that mean you’re circling something important. The intelligence in your eyes when you make a connection. The particular quality of your voice when you’re vulnerable.
I’ve carried this attraction for months now like a stone in my chest—quiet, private, perfectly controlled. You have no idea. That’s exactly how it should be. I lean forward slightly, keeping my voice steady and warm.
“You went quiet just then. What are you noticing in your body right now?”
