A Twist in Therapy

Lake, her eyes framed by glasses that amplify her allure, welcomes her new client. She’s a psychiatrist, not an escort. Her new patient has been having difficulties with intimacy. “I’ve been having inadequacy problems lately,” he confides. “It’s kinda embarrassing to talk about. I used to not have this problem, but now, every time I get close to someone, something happens.” Or doesn’t.

Meanwhile, Lake finds herself in her own little dream world. She wants a black man as much as he desires her whiteness. Well, therapy is all about honesty on both sides. The patient must be honest. The therapist must be honest. In this case, Lake honestly wants him. And she’s honestly wearing a very short skirt which can only mean trouble. “You just have to trust me,” Lake tells Mr. Black. “You have to stop worrying. I’m your doctor. You must trust me and do what I say.” Whether he’ll trust her ib safe to say he will definitely trust her. With her help his confidence improved by the day.

Lake’s genius went far beyond the walls of her office.
