I didn't get much sleep last night. It was 4AM when I was back in my office. Shawn and I talked. yes, Talked. he didn't tell his story, but there will be a time that he will. I just want him to trust me, so he can tell me everything. I planned a groups session today, with the clients I talk the most. I am planning to do a little 'game' to trust each other more, just to know what the others have been through. we're going to play ' (or cross the line idk what it's called to be honest)

I'm going to ask questions,and they have to step over the line if they experienced it. I planned 2 hours for it. from 9 till 11, so I guess I have to inform all the clients.

Fortunately, we have a speaker. so you can say a message in a microphone, and then you have to press on the room numbers, where you want it to be heard. I search for all the client number, and start talking after I put on the room numbers. I say the time,and where it is. I'm sure they're in their room, because the alarm goes on 8.30AM, and it's 8.36AM. yes they only have 30 minutes to make their selves ready, but I don't care. they just have to be on time. 

I put on the polo with the name of this center, and grab my shoes. I decide to go to the room where the other clients have to be in 15 minutes. as I walk into the room, my phone vibrates. I look at the screen and roll my eyes. this is the 7th time he tried to call me, and he texted me all night. i'm done with him.

I hear knocks on the door, and see a few clients waiting for me to open the door. I greet them all one by one, and count at the same time. We only miss one person. it's 8:59 and i see someone walking towards the door, Shawn. he looks tired, more tired then he ever did. When he steps inside, the big clock on the wall tells us it's 9. is he always exactly on time?

"Welcome everyone, I hope you slept well" I start talking as I look around. "I want to try something with you all, stand up and bring your chair to the side of this room, so we have enough space." I hear some annoyed sighs, as they all stand up. I bite my lip as i read all the questions I want to ask them. I hope they take it well.

"You all have to stand on this side of the line" i point at the left side, of the taped line.

"I'm going to ask you a few questions, and if you have ever done something like it or, experienced it, you have to step over the line" everyone looks a bit uncomfortable with it, but I'm sure they will get less uncomfortable soon.

"let's get started with a simple question" I look at my clients, and see that they are all looking at me. except for one person, Shawn. i don't know if he's even here with his thoughts, i don't even know if he heard my explanation

"Step over the line, if you.." i look down at my notebook "..ever felt alone" I look up, and see that a few clients step over the line, not fast, because they have to get out of their circkel and open up. Shawn looks up and if he notices that everyone else started walking, he started walking too. 

"Thanks everyone" i write down the names, and tell them to walk back again.

"We have one question left, you are all doing a great job" I read the question out loud

"step over the line if...Have you ever experienced love" a few heads jerk up, as a we hear loud footsteps walking away, slamming the door as the person leaves. 

I check which persons are in the room, and see that I miss the one i wanted to know the most about. Shawn Mendes, 826..

I know he's my responsibility now, so i have to go look for him. I look at my watch and see we have 10 minutes left. 

"This was it, thanks for everything, we'll discuss it next time" i say fast, and i give each person a slight smile as they walk out.

Where the hell is that boy.
