Male voice: Okay this is Doctor Sam Coleman, we’re about to record Miss Carmen Morales’ third session… Okay, Carmen?
Carmen: Okay…
Click
Doctor Coleman: …How long have you guys been together?
Carmen: …Uhm… That’s a difficult question…(chuckles) We haven’t had a very regular relationship… I mean, we had a sexual intercourse the very first day we met… Then we had sporadic sex for a while… And then again we tried to build our friendship. At that time Jenny, Shane’s roommate, seemed to have an interest in me, so we stopped our sorta relationship…
Doctor Coleman: Why?
Carmen: Because Shane asked me to give Jenny a chance…
Doctor Coleman: That’s interesting. And you accepted it?
Carmen: (Pauses) …What?
Doctor Coleman: You accepted the idea that Shane was deciding who was the best partner for you… at your place?
Carmen: …Well, I really didn’t think about it…
Doctor Coleman: Have you talked to Shane about that?
Carmen: (sighs): Yeah… I told her that she didn’t have to hook me up.
Doctor Coleman: But you ended dating Jenny. Why?
Click
Carmen: …a way to be close to Shane.
Doctor Coleman: So you were dating Jenny because you had a feeling Shane was somehow unobtainable…
Carmen: …Well, Shane had obvious issues when it came to feelings… She seemed unable to handle them, and I didn’t know what to do… I was confused…
Doctor Coleman: Did you think Shane was interested in you, despite your relationship with Jenny?
Carmen: I had a feeling she was jealous, yeah…
Doctor Coleman: Why?
Carmen: …Well, she couldn’t stand the idea of me and Jenny together. She started acting weird…
Doctor Coleman: Explain yourself.
Carmen: …She seemed even more promiscuous than usual. And she was very cold with me. We barely spoke to each other. Probably we didn’t know what to say.

Doctor Coleman: Did you guys speak a lot before you started dating Jenny?
Carmen: No, not really… In fact, we just had sex…
Doctor Coleman: What about verbal communication?
Carmen: Shane is not a very verbal person. At that time, she became completely soundless after having sex with me.
Doctor Coleman: Why? What’s your opinion about that?
Carmen: I think she wasn’t used to deal with relationship. I think she was used to have sex with a different girl every night, never worrying about the morning after.
Doctor Coleman: What about you? Are you the one-night-stand type of girl?
Carmen: Actually, no. Even less I am the kind of person who falls for unavoidable people.
Doctor Coleman: Would you define Shane as an unavoidable person?
Carmen: (Pauses) …I only think Shane can be the worst enemy of herself…
Doctor Coleman: Why?

wow, great update. Hopefully Carmen finds the answers she needs in therapy. And I LOL about Mercedes with a bucket of cold water.
