Lirssa approached the clinic steadily. She was nervous, yes, but she was determined to not let it delay her. Delay gave opportunity to justify not going. Not going meant not knowing. All the years before she had not cared to know. Even with the first chaotic months of her unasked talent, she had gone on with only knowing of herself what she could see and remember. What had always been a small worry now had an outside voice to support it: she was dangerous to everyone, not just those of dark designs and sinister purpose.
First, of course, she had to determine if Olen was truly her father. It was an abysmal likelihood. No one else had claimed to be biologically related to her. And it wasn't as though he wanted anything from her except to teach her. At least not yet. Ali, Elliot, and Kyrie had taught her much, but what more would she learn from one of her own? Was he her own? It made her stomach turn.
All of these thoughts had carried her through the front door of the clinic where Mrs Doc Eva worked. The reception area was welcoming with comforting scents to ease patient's anxieties. The warm aroma of coffee permeated the air as did fresh cookies and the lighter touch of fruits and other snacks. Behind the desk was a matronly looking woman who instantly had a kind smile for Lirssa as she approached. "Excuse me. My name is Lirssa, and I am hoping Dr..." Lirssa paused. She did not know Mrs Doc Eva's official name. Making her best guess, she just went with, "Dr. Eva Luna is available."
