Knock, Knock, Knock, Come in. A little girl by the name of Alica walks in. Hello Alica. Hi Dr. Stewart. How may I help you today?, Alica. no so good. Well I though I was okay but I am not. What do you mean says Dr. Stewart. I mean I thought the voices were gone but they are back. What do the voices say to you. They tell me to do all sorts of things. Like what stated Dr. Stewart. They tell me to hurt people but I do not want to. It is getting harder and harder to look away from them. It is hard to get rid them I do not know what to do. Alica start to cry while pleading with Dr. Stewart to make them go away. The room becomes silent and chills burst through the room. Alica turns to the left and looks horrified. Alica, are they here?, yes. What do they look like? Scary, they are just looking at me. Alica screams and covers her eyes. as if that will make them go away. she opens her eyes, they are gone, Alica relaxes. Dr. Stewart ask, are you okay,yes, Can I go now? After you tell me about the voices stated Dr. Stewart. The voices are real people says Alica. I told you they want me to hurt people. What people says Dr. Stewart. Just people on the street, anyone. I do not know what to do. My mom does not believe me, she says I am faking and all kids have an imaginary friends but they are not fake they are real and not my friends. Dr. Stewart, do you think I am crazy. Kids at my school think I am. They say that I am going to have to go to a home and where they lock "crazy people" away. No, You are not crazy and why would I think that. I do believe that you have a problem that needs to be talked about. A lot of people have them, it is just something you need workout stated Dr. Stewart. Then will they go away says Alica. Maybe says Dr. Stewart. so, when do we start says Alica. At your next session says Dr. Stewart. As Alica leaves, she places a weak smile on her face, as if she wants to believe the doctor but does not. The doctor does the same. He thinks to himself, Alica will be coming here for a long time.
