"Take it slow Sasha." Trevor prodded gently. "Tell us what happened."

"Eric was beyond pissed off. He was screaming so loud it made me wonder if his neighbors could hear what he was saying. He said he had talked to Kelli and if I had 'time to go shopping then I damn well had the time to call him back.' He was so angry. He kept reminding me how he had 'saved my life' and how he convinced my parents not to put me up for adoption. He reminded me of how he had taken care for me for so many years. How he was responsible for the fact I grew up in the loving home I did. He called me ungrateful for everything he has done for me. I was shaking uncontrollably just listening to him. He confirmed he is coming to visit and said when he gets his hands on me; he is going to hurt me worse than I have ever hurt myself. There was a voice telling me to lunge forward and turn off the machine but I felt paralyzed. I couldn't move. I just stood there, listening to him berate me." She reached for another tissue before continuing her account of the events. "He accused me of having sex with Brian and told me I was going to burn in Hell for my sins. He said I was a horrible person to take a mother away from her kids."

"But none of that is true is Sasha. You haven't even come close to having sex with Brian and you didn't break up his marriage. You had nothing to do with that." Trevor reassured her.

"I know. I know." She couldn't look at either man. "He succeeded in breaking me though. After all of these years, he knew what was going through my mind. He knew saying I was the cause of the disintegration would push the right buttons and force me to take action. I hate myself for the power he wields over me!" She seethed.

"You can't allow him to control you Sasha."

"A part of me knows that Trevor."

"That is the voice you need to listen to Sasha." He looked at her. "You didn't listen though and the rage took over."

Sasha nodded. "I was wearing shorts. I don't even remember making the first cut. I don't remember the second one either. By the third one, I was watching the blood flow out." She closed her eyes. "I don't want to trigger you guys. I'll stop."

Ben put his hand on Sasha's arm. "It is OK Sasha. You need to tell us what you were feeling."
