Chapter Seven
Maggie had dragged her feet all morning, making Rebecca glad the appointment wasn’t before ten. The two of them had breakfast together in an otherwise silent house.
“You’re not scared, right?” she asked her brooding daughter. “You know Doctor Hanson. She’s nice…” …and she can ask some questions in a much sneakier way than any of us.
Maggie made a non-committal sound as she ate her cereal. “How many more times do I have to go?”
“We’ll talk about that with Doctor Hanson. A few more times, maybe? She’ll give you some more exercises.” For when the nightmares come. Rebecca didn’t say that out loud. She didn’t have to. “You’ve been sleeping better.”
“I guess.” Maggie stirred the milk in her bowl, the resulting sound jarring.
“Do you want to go back to your book club this week?”
“No. I didn’t read the book.”
That was another first. Ironic, when she thought back to the time Dina had given her so much reason to worry, hiding her friend’s pregnancy test, then her romance with the Italian exchange student that seemed to progress far too quickly for Rebecca’s comfort. Maggie quietly resolved things with herself, which was a scary thought at the moment.
“Okay, but tomorrow, we’re all going to see Roz. That’s going to be fun.”
If you say so. It was easy for Rebecca to read Maggie’s sullen expression.
Doctor Hanson’s office was halfway between Autumn Leaves and Marin County. On the outside, the house fit nicely into the suburban neighborhood. On the inside, the first floor was all dedicated to young visitors. It had taken Rebecca some time to accept that coming here didn’t mean parental failure. Seeking help from a professional when it benefited your child was the right thing to do. While it wasn’t Maggie’s favorite place to come to at the moment, she did enjoy the relaxation exercises and fantasy journeys Doctor Hanson practiced with her.
She just didn’t want to answer any hard questions.
“Hey, Maggie!” The counselor greeted them with a bright smile. “How have you been?”
“Good,” Maggie said hesitantly.
“That’s great. Let’s see if you can remember those exercises we did the last time, and I’d really like to hear what you’ve been doing on Spring Break so far. Why don’t you go inside and choose something from the play corner? I’ll be with you in a few minutes.”
“You flinched a little when she said ‘good’,” Doctor Hanson remarked quietly. “Did anything happen?”
“I’m not sure. Maybe it has to do with the kidnapping, but we believe there’s another reason for the more recent nightmares.” As always, when approaching the subject with someone, Rebecca felt herself tense up. Anger, disbelief, the fear that Maggie could still think somebody would come to take her away, because there was something inherently wrong with her family. “We don’t know, but we think the nightmares might be related. Someone—we don’t know who—told her she might have to go to a foster home, because…because of me.”
Doctor Hanson’s eyes widened. “Irresponsible would be putting it mildly. You have a suspicion though? Do you think your ex-brother-in-law is the one?”
“I thought so, but he denies it.
