I forgot about this even shorter part... They do get longer; really! *somewhere in here they get longer. I hope...*




BFB - 082d - Wufei's Disaster



Horribly conspicuous.

That’s how he felt; standing in the waiting room of the therapist that Mistress Loquinn had referred him to. It wasn’t a large room, only about twelve chairs, but over half of them were filled, and he was waiting his turn at the frosted glass window. People were staring at him; he just knew they were, wondering what sort of lunacy lurked under *his* nervous façade.

When his turn at the window came, he handed the female a card, muttering “I’m supposed to see Dr Tolbien.”

She read the card, frowning slightly, then brightened. “Oh, yes, Mr Chang. You’re from the Castle. Mistress Loquinn called about you.”

Wufei flinched. Did she have to yell it to the whole world? He hunched in on himself, feeling... just horribly conspicuous and wishing that he could just sink into the bowels of the earth and never come back.

The female behind the frosted window handed him a plastic clipboard with a cheap ballpoint pen attached and a handful of forms. “Dr Tolbien will be ready for you in about fifteen minutes; in the meantime, fill out these forms as completely as you can.” She shut the frosted glass and he was forced to turn back to the waiting room. There was a vacant chair in the far corner under the window; he slunk across the room, trying not to make eye contact with any of the other waitees.

The pen had cheap gloppy ink that balled up around the point and deposited itself at random places on the pages, leaving splotches and puddles and smearing even as he stared at it. The questions on the forms ranged from stupid to invasive. What was all this about... about masturbation...? And why the hell did a therapist need to know when a female’s last period was. He paused, blinking. Oh crap... Did they do *that* kind of therapy here?! He shook himself and skipped to the next question; best not to think about things like that.

And then his name was called.


...tbc...

Oh God... the horrors of the waiting room. Like a small group of people waiting for Armaggedon together. No one speaks. Everyone busy reading those stupid years old magazines. Either Field and Stream, or Redbook depending on what kind of Doctor's office. >.<;; But mostly just not looking at each other.
Gah! Poor Wufei! I only thought you were being mean to him before! The horror!

You know, I got to wondering about that, and discovered that I wrote this part about the time I made the doctor's appointment. Must have been some kind of Freudian slip. One tomorrow, and two more on Wednesday. I'm bringing a book and my crocheting. ^_^ Let 'em stare.

Hmmm... yeah, I think this qualifies as taking your frustrations out on Wufei! ^o^

Maybe this should be a therapy... "Fic-write Your Way to Sanity." Wonder if I can copyright/trademark that?

Wow; you're shooting for sanity? I was just hoping for 'Fic-write your way away from mass murder'. Hmmm... sanity, huh? I dunno... such lofty goals you have! :P

I agree w/ Sunny. Waiting rooms are horrors and in that type of situation you know everyone is wondering WHY you are there in the first place... and hoping that you are worse off than they are.

It used to be hell when my kid was first seeing his shrink... Everyone in the waiting room stared at us and I don't know why... It was a psychiatric center, after all; that's why everyone was there. But we got stared at...

Maybe it was the tail...

Of Course it was the tail, but on which one of you did it show??

*snicker*

It can't be any worse than when I take my 3 (yes I said three) kids to thier doctor... my worst complaint is the doc's attitde towards his patients.... he sits behind this big old desk, with reflective glasses on, about 35 feet away from the sofa his clients are to sit on...(talk about being in another room? they made his office long and narrow on purpose)

*shrug* Poor guy, he must of had a bad experience or something........

Okay, now I'm really glad that my kid's doctor is one of the warm fuzzy types....

I had a high school counselor like that. I think he was afraid of the kids.

It was probably my tail... I have a bad habit of cuddling my tail when I'm nervous. Combined with the fact that those lousy chairs aren't built with tails in mind. Oh, I probably should warn Wufei of that fact...

Well! What are you waiting for...?? Hope to it girl, don't want him to totally freak now do ya???!!!

Or maybe that was your plan all along?!? Yeah, you and Sunny hook up with these sadistic little plots that you twist us fan girls up in... and it's no fun at this time of year!?! *outraged huff*

*thoughtful scratch to chin*

Course, all that stress is a relief after it's resovled... umm... okay, go ahead, just please don't take to long... I would love to see a "pleasant" dragon in time for Christmas... maybe one being comforted by a Trowa/cougar (my favorite... could you guess? I have an actual love bite/scare on my arm from a real cougar!!)
