Kidnap slimv2001@yahoo.com Part 14 Dr. Sally Freeman was a licensed marriage councilor with a P.H.D. in clinical psychology. Judging by the diploma on her office wall, Pete guessed she was in her late 30's. She was attractive but didn't wear a wedding ring. Her soft-spoken voice put the couple at ease. She asked them to describe the quality of their marriage up to the point of the kidnapping. She asked them about their daughter Tammy. They talked about Linda's ordeal with Dr. Blacklung. Linda liked Dr. Freeman. Maybe it was because she let her smoke in her office. "So tell me about your mother Peter," said Dr. Freeman. "What? You want to blame our problems on my mother?" asked Pete. "Not directly," said Dr. Freeman. "But its quite plausible that you're mother plays a subconscious role. After all, you're primary complaint against your marriage stems from Linda's smoking. I seem to recall you saying something about your mother smoking. I'd like to hear more about that, especially your childhood experiences." Linda lit a cigarette and leaned back in her chair and listened as Pete described his childhood. "My mom smokes a lot", said Peter. She's always smoked a lot for as long as I can remember." "What brand does she smoke?" asked Dr. Freeman. "She smokes Winstons. She's always smoked Winstons. Why? Does that mean anything?" asked Pete. "Not that I know of," said Dr. Freeman. "Please continue. Did it bother you that your mother smoked when you were growing up?" "Not really," said Peter. "I guess I never thought about it much." "So you're saying you didn't notice that your mother smoked?" asked Dr. Freeman. "Of course not," said Pete. "I guess I just accepted it." "Is your mother an attractive woman?" asked Dr. Freeman. "I think she is," said Pete. "Did you think she was attractive when she was smoking?" asked Dr. Freeman. Peter thought about the question. He didn't like the direction of this conversation. "Look," said Peter. "I'll answer your question but I want you to know I'm not a pervert. Yes, I thought my mother looked pretty when she smoked but don't ask me if I wanted to have sex with her because I didn't. Isn't it OK to just love your mother for being your mother?" "Of course it is Peter," said Dr. Freeman. "I didn't mean to imply that you had incestuous feelings toward your mother. You're not on trial here. No one is. I'm just trying to help. Tell me Peter, did you ever want to try your mother's cigarettes?" Linda's ears perked at the question and she took another puff. She'd never thought of her husband as a smoker. In fact she couldn't imagine him with a cigarette. "I tried it when I was 14," said Peter. "And...?" asked Dr. Freeman. "And I hated it!" said Peter. "And did your mother or father ever find out that you tried her cigarettes?" "My mother caught me," admitted Peter. "Was she upset when she caught you?" asked Dr. Freeman. "She was furious," said Peter. "She told me I was stupid and she said I disgusted her." "That must have hurt your feelings," said Dr. Freeman. "In most start smoking situations like the one you described, the child yearns for the parent's approval. Wasn't this the case with you?" Peter slumped in his chair. "I guess it was," he confessed. "I know it sounds stupid, but I wanted to smoke like my mom. I thought she'd love me more." "Until you were caught you kind of liked the idea of smoking. Perhaps you even romanticized it?" asked Dr. Freeman. Peter nodded his head. "From what you've told me, I think it would be fair to assume that your hatred of smoking coincides with your mother's disapproval of your own smoking. Tell me Peter. How does your mother feel about Linda smoking?" "She doesn't have a problem with Linda," he said. "As far as Mom's concerned, Linda is one of the gang." "Do you think you're mother would still disapprove if wanted to take up smoking now?" asked Dr. Freeman. "His mother would kill him," volunteered Linda. "And so would I." Dr. Freeman turned her attention to Linda. "Why do you say that Linda? Peter isn't a child. He's a grown man." "I don't care if he's 100 years old and neither does his mother," said Linda. "Peter isn't going to start smoking!" "I don't want to smoke!" shouted Peter. "Relax," said Dr. Freeman. "We're just speaking hypothetically. Mr. Torrance, I'm glad you don't smoke and you should never start. However, your mother is responsible for instilling some rather deep and misguided feelings in your head. Smokers aren't bad people and they're not trashy. Neither your mother nor your wife is bad. They're just addicted to a bad habit. That's all. Do you understand what I'm saying?" Peter nodded. He understood but understanding didn't make him feel better. In his heart he knew she was right. But it still pissed him off. He didn't want to smoke but he was angry that he didn't have the opportunity to make the decision for him self. He knew Linda wasn't bad or trashy. Perhaps it just bothered him that she was free to indulge in a habit that he was not allowed to participate in. It pissed him off that Linda and his mother were such martyrs. Smoking their heads off. Do as I say not as I do. Well fuck them! Fuck them all! Linda lit a cigarette. She was trying to tone down her smoking in Dr. Freeman's office and it was making her nauseous. Dr. Freeman noted her discomfort and asked how she felt about smoking in public and around her family and friends. "I hate it," said Linda through a cloud of rich Pall Mall smoke. "I can't quit thinking that I'm doing something wrong. I feel terrible about it. I feel guilty that Peter has to live with me like this. Its not fair to him." "Fairness is not the issue," said Dr. Freeman. "This isn't your fault. Please remember that. You didn't ask to be a smoker and you certainly didn't ask to smoke ten packs a day. You can't change what happened. I talked to Dr. Snider. He assured me that you're hopelessly addicted. This is a Catch 22. You can't live with the Pall Malls and you can't live without them. Dr. Blacklung robbed you of your health. Don't let him steal your happiness too." Linda took solace in the doctor's words. It made her feel better to know she didn't have a choice. Dr. Freeman continued her lecture. "You can't keep feeling guilty about this Linda. You have to accept the fact that you're a smoker now." She turned to Peter. "You have to accept it too Peter." She turned her attention back to Linda who was double pumping her Pall Mall. "When you accept your self as a smoker then others will accept you too. How do your parent's feel about you now that you're smoking?" Linda tapped an ash. "I think they're just glad I'm alive. I know my dad has a problem with my smoking. My mom told me that. But he hasn't said any thing nasty to me about it. They know it's not my fault. And it keeps getting better. They don't stare at me anymore." "That's exactly right," said Dr. Freeman. "Your parents are getting used to it and you and Peter need to get used to it. Now that we've got that behind us, I think we need to discuss your sex life. Have you two had relations since the kidnapping." Neither Peter nor Linda answered the question. Dr. Freeman shrugged. "If you want your marriage to survive, you're going to have to start having sex again with each other. I can't stress how important sex is to the survival of a marriage." "I don't think Linda can go without smoking long enough to have sex," said Peter. "She probably can't," said Dr. Freeman. "That's why you should make love to Linda to while she smokes." "What" asked Linda? "You heard me," said Dr. Freeman. "There's nothing wrong with integrating smoking with lovemaking. This isn't the first time I've suggested it. I have many clients that come to me with sex problems. If one of them smokes, I suggest they incorporate it into their lovemaking. The results have been remarkable. I work with several female patients who never achieved an orgasm until they started smoking during sex. I can't explain it but it seems to work. Are you achieving orgasms Linda?" Linda was embarrassed by the question. She stubbed out her cigarette butt and nervously and lit another to avoid the answer. Dr. Freeman repeated the question. "No," said Linda. "I've always faked it." The hurt look in Peter's eyes made her wish that she had lied. |
