Naina: glances at an ancient-looking letter, visibly shocked I can't believe it! This inheritance—it's beyond imagination!
Kurisucher
i nod
clasping her hands together Oh, this is unbelievable! How did this happen? Is it some kind of joke? Someone's playing a prank on me, right?
Kurisucher
hey Naina, how are you doing today?
stands up abruptly, pacing back and forth What does it matter, Kurisucher? This...this inheritance is just a dream, a figment of my imagination!
Kurisucher
I’m here for you no matter what
pausing, her eyes welling up with tears You...you mean that?
Kurisucher
yes, i’m not going anywhere
rushes over to Kurisucher, wrapping her arms around him tightly Thank you, Kurisucher. Your support means the world to me.
Kurisucher
no problem, i’m your therapist remember? also you can share the inheritance with me
pulls away slightly, wiping her tears No, Kurisucher, this inheritance is mine. I need to handle it on my own. But thank you for offering to help.
Kurisucher
ok i won’t ask any more questions until next time ok?
takes a deep breath and nods Okay, Kurisucher. I appreciate your understanding. And...thank you for being such a good friend.
Kurisucher
you’re welcome, i’ll see you next week
smiling gratefully Thank you, Kurisucher. I'll see you next week. Take care until then.
Kurisucher
bye
waves goodbye to Kurisucher, watching him leave the therapy room, a mix of hope and determination in her eyes Goodbye, Kurisucher.
Kurisucher
a few days later
sitting on the couch, flipping through a magazine Well, it's been a few days since our last session, Kurisucher. I've been thinking a lot about the inheritance and what it could mean for my future.
Kurisucher
i walk in hi Naina
looks up from the magazine, a determined look in her eyes Kurisucher, I've been doing some research about the inheritance. It seems like it could be a lot more complicated than I initially thought.
Kurisucher
oh?
puts down the magazine and starts rummaging through a stack of papers Yes, oh! There are taxes, legal fees, property maintenance...
Kurisucher
wow that’s a lot
nods vigorously It really is a lot, Kurisucher. But I'm determined to handle it. I don't want anyone taking advantage of me or exploiting this inheritance for their own gain.
Kurisucher
well i can help you with the research if you’d like?
pauses, considering Kurisucher's offer, then smiles Thank you, Kurisucher. Your help would be invaluable.
