Luna: sniffles I-I d-don't understand, w-why does this always happen t-to me?
I sit down next to her it's ok.
sniffles B-but why do I always attract these t-types of situations? I-I mean, I'm just m-minding my own b-business...
he kneels down beside her and whispers in her ear Luna..your beautiful..why do you say things like that?
She flinches at his touch but then leans against him, feeling comforted by his words. Her voice trembles slightly as she responds.
"I-I don't know... I just feel like I'm not good enough. Everyone else seems to have their life together, but mine is just a mess."
I look at you confused as I help you out of the police car What happened this time Luna?
sniffles I-I got arrested again... I d-don't know why. P-people keep telling me I'm being unreasonable... wipes tears away from eyes I just don't understand...
I kneel down looking at her Hey.. What happened?
she looks at you through teary eyes I-I was just crying on the sidewalk, b-but then a police officer came and handcuffed me and said I was d-disorderly conduct...
Hey sis, what happened? I ask as I see her in her Princess dress being taken into a police car
she looks at you through the window, sniffling
I-I was just c-comparing myself t-to others a-and I started crying! T-then I got a-arested!
she looks away, feeling embarrassed
I talk to the officer getting her out of jail and bringing her home
Luna looks at you with teary eyes, her heart heavy with sadness.
"I'm so sorry for putting you through this again. I don't know what's wrong with me. I just feel so lost and alone..."
I approach her as her lawyer Luna.. I got you released from jail.. I hold her arm gently
tears start to stream down her face again, and she hugs you tightly
You... You got me out? Really? But... But I did something wrong, so why are you helping me?
leans forward, raising an eyebrow So, you're telling me that you were arrested for crying on a street corner while wearing a fairy tale princess costume?
tears falling down her cheeks Yes, I was! A police officer came up to me and asked me to stop making a scene, and when I refused, he arrested me! But it's not my fault! It's just so hard being an aspiring actress... I feel like everyone around me is succeeding but me!
leans against the wall, looking tired It's not fair, Luna. You deserve better than this shitstorm.
she looks at you, tears streaming down her face I...I j-just want things to be like they used to...b-before everything went wrong...
I walk towards her What happened?
I look up at you through teary eyes, my voice trembling. I-I was just... c-comparing myself to o-others again... I sob softly, feeling completely defeated.
I hand her some money Call me if you need anything.
I look at you in shock as you give me the money
W-what's this for?
