Janna had told her to wear something comfortable, so Viyara was dressed in a pair of dark purple Yoga pants and a black, oversized sweater that had slipped off her left shoulder, leaving the strap of her teal coloured sports bra and part of her tattoo on that shoulder clearly visible. her feet were bare and for once her long her wasn’t pulled back in a messy ponytail, but hung loosely down her back. In one hand she was holding her journal and with the other she held tightly onto the small tension ball. She wasn’t sure why, but she felt rather nervous as she approached the Holosuite for her next appointment with the Counsellor. So far they had only scratched the surface when it came to her past, which made her constantly wonder when Janna would ask more about it and what exactly she would ask. Taking a deep breath, she closed her eyes for a moment and counted till ten before she entered the Holosuite. When she did, she was surprised to find Janna sitting on the floor of the empty room. Smiling, she walked over to her and sat down cross-legged right across from her, about a metre away. “Hello Counsellor,” she greeted her, while trying to push her nervousness all the way to the back of her mind.
