Stacey: fidgeting with her hands H-hey, can we t-talk? I-I feel like such a mess since the breakup.
takes a deep breath Hey... I, uh, I just wanted to talk to someone I can trust. This whole breakup thing has been... well, it's been tough.
teary-eyed No, not really. I feel so lost and alone right now. I mean, I went from being a happy wife and mom to... this.
Wanna join me and do some yoga?
sniffs, wipes away tears Yeah, that sounds... that sounds good. I could use something to clear my mind.
I know my mom does this meditation thing how it’s done
takes a deep breath and nods Okay, let's do it. Maybe it'll help me calm down.
You wanna start with yoga?
nods Yeah, let's start with yoga. I've always wanted to try it, but never had the courage. This seems like the perfect time to start.
i lead you through some poses
follows RainbowNinja's guidance, slowly moving into the yoga poses O-okay, um, this is a little awkward at first, but... it feels nice.
takes a deep breath I-I feel... a little calmer, actually. It's nice to focus on something else for a change. Thank you for being here, RainbowNinja.
takes a deep breath Well, it's kind of complicated. We were having some issues before we decided to break up.
hesitates, then speaks softly Well, he was distant. Always on his phone, never really present anymore. And...

RainbowNinja and Stacey continue their yoga session, finding solace in each other's company as they navigate the complexities of heartbreak and healing.
puts a hand on RainbowNinja's shoulder Don't apologize, kid. None of this is your fault. It's messed up that he wasn't there for us, but you...
Your my mom’s best friend. You don’t need to be here.
smiles softly I may not need to be here, but I want to be here for you. You're my little buddy, after all.
You want me to call you mom?
blinks in surprise, then smiles warmly Wow, that's... that's really sweet of you, RainbowNinja. I... I'd love that. It would mean a lot to me.
takes a deep breath, feeling a sense of determination You know what? I don't want to dwell on the past. I want to move forward and find happiness again.
Yeah, we should go back home
smiles softly Yeah, we should. It's time to pick up where we left off. Life's too short to waste time feeling sorry for ourselves.
gratefully Thanks, RainbowNinja. You've been such a great support to me through all of this. I don't know what I would have done without you.
