Candy has been...well, she's getting better. If I'm not mistaken, she gets out in six days. Ash has been filling me in here and there, when she hears something.
As her group of friends, all of us Crazy Lesbian Circus girls went to see a counselor at the facility she's in. It was the doctors request. None of us objected.
It was kind of cool. They told us the do's and don'ts of how to be when Candy gets out. Success of recovery depends on the support around her and I think I can speak for all the Circus girls when I say that we want her to stay clean. We want her and Ash to have a long, healthy, and clean life together.
I think that Candy finally realized that she had something to live for. So maybe her family is worthless...but us, we are her real family. We are the one's who stood by her throughout everything she's done these past few years and not one of us ever asked for anything in return.
And Ash...who knew that they loved each other so much.
Ash was at the meeting with us. She said that she was doing the drugs to try to get closer to Candy. That she thought that if she was doing what Candy was doing, then Candy would stop going to all the drug houses and disappearing for days and instead, stay home with her to get high. It backfired and Ash got addicted and she started doing the same this Candy was doing. Staying out for days in places she could have been killed.
Anyway, we are trying to come up with a new name for Candy. One that has no reference to drugs. She will no longer be the Circus Junkie and we don't want anything to trigger her back into that life.
We are taking suggestions, so feel free to comment on this.
