Friday night she stood looking up at the Crown Center. She shouldn’t feel grateful that this was Dusty’s weekend as first responder in the arena. It would delay her knowing if she could function in a crisis. She was grateful just the same.

When she’d forced herself to call Major Thibodaux last Saturday, he’d been very glad to hear from her. Of course, he’d thought she was calling to return to her unit. They were short on medics, again. Still, she couldn’t ignore the guilt that sliced through her. She touched the suddenly throbbing scar on her side.

But when he heard why she was calling, he’d greased the wheels, getting her set up with an army psychologist she’d speak with via phone every few days. At least she’d taken a step.

She hunched her shoulders in her pea jacket and headed for the huge roll-up doors that signified the bull entrance. Her first session with Dr. Heinz had been brutal. It was as if he’d known all her buttons, and hadn’t been shy about pushing them, one after another, until she ended up, forehead touching the shag carpet of her hotel room, her secrets in a steaming pile in front of her.

Well, he should be good at it. He dealt with survivor’s guilt and PTSD every day. Her feet followed the pipe corral maze by rote.

The homework he’d assigned was off the wall.

Act like I’m sixteen again? Work at playing?

Who the heck had time to be sixteen again? She crammed her hands deep into her jacket pockets. He told her that part of her problem was trying to hold too tightly to her emotions trying to control them. She had “too many expectations of herself.”

Well, duh. That hadn’t begun with her enlistment. You didn’t survive growing up in her parents’ house, wearing your emotions on your sleeve.

But she’d promised to try. Now she only had to figure out how one went about “playing.”
