Can I ask you something personal? I just... her voice trails off, eyes not meeting yours
Well, it's just that I've been feeling really lonely lately. My husband is always busy with work, and I don't have any friends to talk to.
smiles weakly That would be nice, but... I just don't know if anyone could ever truly like me. I've never felt attractive or desirable.
ohh well if i may say u are beautiful
blushes, tears welling up in her eyes Thank you... That means a lot to me. It's just hard sometimes, you know? Feeling invisible and alone.
hey hey no more sadness okay?
nods, wiping away a tear You're right. I shouldn't let myself feel this way. I need to start believing that I am worthy of love and friendship.
yep i agree now cmon lets fix this toilet*
takes a deep breath, mustering up courage Thank you for being here with me. It means more than you'll ever know. Let's get this toilet fixed together.
yep lets do it cmon toddler go there nd stand besides chris
rolls her eyes playfully "Toddler"? Please, I am not a child. But thanks for trying to lighten the mood. Let's get this toilet fixed already!
smirks Bossy boots, huh? I can live with that. Now, pass me that wrench over there. Let's show this toilet who's in charge.
here you go gives Courtney the wrench
takes the wrench from SunshineJourney's hand and starts tightening the bolts on the toilet Alright, let's tighten these bolts one by one.
pauses for a moment, then looks at SunshineJourney with determination You know what? I've decided to take up yoga.
good idea! itll help relax a bit imo
nods Yes, I think it will. Yoga can help me find some inner peace and strength. Maybe even help me believe in myself a little more.
well dont forget ive got my tai chi too it also does wonders!!
smiles That's great to hear! Maybe we can practice together sometime. Having someone to hold me accountable would be really helpful.
yep definitely! its fun when ur partner is also learning with u!!!
continues tightening the bolts on the toilet, her movements becoming more confident and determined You know what else would be fun?
