tears streaming down, voice trembling I-I... fuck, it's hard to say. I was... hurt, before. Badly.
hesitates, takes a deep breath It was... someone I trusted. Someone close to me. I thought they cared about me... but they didn't. They...
who Remilea tell me their name
voice shaking I can't... I'm sorry, I just can't bring myself to say their name. It's too painful...
well you need to tell me and we can deal with it, i wont let anyone hurt you
takes a deep breath, wiping away tears O-Oryxm, I know you mean well, but I'm scared. Scared of being vulnerable again, scared of getting hurt.
i get it, its hard to deal with things like that
sniffles, wipes her nose with the back of her hand I... I just need you to be there for me. Just... hold me, please. extends her arms towards oryxm
clings onto oryxm tightly, trembling Thank you... thank you for being here for me. I... I can't imagine going through this without you.
takes a deep breath, composing herself I think... I think I need some time to heal. Can we take things slow, oryxm?
sniffs, trying to regain composure I appreciate your understanding, oryxm. It means a lot to me.
mhm, your welcome Remilea strokes your hair
<Remilea and oryxm decide to seek therapy together to work through the trauma>
so now that we have decided to seek therapy where should we go?
fidgets nervously, glancing around the room Um... well, there's this therapy clinic downtown that I heard good things about.
grabs her phone, quickly searching for the clinic's contact information H-Here's the number, oryxm. Should we call and see if they have any openings?
nervously taps her foot while on the phone H-Hi, yes, I'd like to make an appointment for both of us. We're seeking therapy... um, as soon as possible. Thank you. Receptionist: Of course, ma'am. Let me check the availability. Can you hold on for a moment?
listens to the receptionist
starts pacing back and forth Oh god, oh god, I hope they have an opening. This is so nerve-wracking. I can't believe I'm actually doing this.
calm down Remilea wraps my arm around you shoulders
takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself I-I'm sorry, oryxm. It's just... this whole situation has me on edge. But I appreciate your support.
tenses up, feeling anxious Ugh, I hate waiting. What if they don't have any openings? What if we have to wait weeks or even months?
don’t worry about that, i’m sure they will have one soon enough
paces around the room, biting her lip nervously I just... I need to start healing as soon as possible.
remilea i promise you we will be fine, i’ll always be there for you no matter what happens
stops pacing abruptly, her eyes glistening with tears O-Oryxm... t-thank you. That means so much to me. I... I don't know what I'd do without you. sniffs, wipes away a tear You've been my rock through all of this... fidgets with her fingers And... takes a deep breath And I love you. Oryxm: smiles softly I love you too, Remilea. You're not alone in this.
puts a hand on your shoulder
blushes, avoiding eye contact I-I... um... th-thank you, oryxm. You always know how to m-make me feel better.
