“You can’t continue like this. I know a psychologist who is very good at what they do. You should go see them.”

Tears started rolling down Charis’ cheeks as she put her trembling hands on the desk. She knew the day would come when Brandon would let her go, sooner or later. And this was it! “Do you think I’m crazy?” she asked with a trembling voice.

Brandon shook his head and explained his reasoning patiently. “I don’t think you’re crazy, but I do believe your state of mind is delicate right now. I understand how you feel. I don’t want to blame you, but I strongly suggest you seek professional help. Otherwise, it will affect your work and life in the future.”
