Jessica Yamada leaned back in her chair and sipped her tea. The soothing strains of Bach washed over her, and she breathed deeply, closing her eyes, letting her muscles relax.
She was good at her job, and she knew it. It was why she got the big paychecks. But sometimes, it felt as though she were tapdancing on a tightrope over an abyss. So far, she hadn't put a foot wrong, and she took some pride in that.
She had seen Eidolon in the morning. As with the first session, he had been initially unwilling to open up, but once he started talking, he had found it hard to stop.
She took another sip of green tea. The implications of what Eidolon had told her were ⦠staggering. It was a miracle that the man was functioning at all; she had talked him through it, gotten him to express his feelings about what he'd learned about himself.
He had been heartened by her lack of judgement, her professional detachment. She had learned what Michael Allen had told him what he must do, to amend the situation. They had made a good start in the first session, and built upon it in the second. He still had trouble accepting his role as regarded the Endbringers, she knew, but she was working on that.
Michael Allen â Security â chose me to help Eidolon, to help Panacea, she mused. I don't know whether to be flattered or terrified. All I know for certain is that if I do not help them, the world will be worse off, in a very definite way.
And I still don't know how he knows what he knows. Or why he picked me, of all the therapists available to the PRT.
Without looking at the large, ornate clock on the wall, she knew that it was almost time. Once more unto the breach.
Getting up, she rinsed out the cup and set it to dry. A muted buzzer sounded on her desk as she was wiping her hands; she shut off the Bach and went to unlock the outer office door.
Danny Hebert stood there, with his daughter and Amy Dallon. "Hello, Amy," she greeted the teenager. "Danny, Taylor, it's good to see you. Come on in."
