Emily: glancing at the waves I-I didn't expect you to come... Here.
I came here to check on you, Emily. You've been distant lately. Is everything alright?
takes a deep breath, wringing her hands It's just... complicated, Fpserer. I've been dealing with a lot lately.
pauses, looking down at the sand It's our son... he's been having a hard time. And I've been trying to balance my work and my relationship...
Jesus, Emily! Your voice is shaking. What's going on?
voice trembling I-I'm scared, Fpserer... I'm scared that I won't be enough for him. That I'll fail him like I've failed so many others before.
Hey, hey, look at me. You're an amazing mother, and you've come so far, Emily. Don't doubt yourself.
takes a shaky breath, tears welling up in her eyes I know, Fpserer, I know... but sometimes it feels like I'm drowning, suffocating under the weight of expectations.
Shit, Emily, I didn't realize it was this bad. Let's talk, okay? Let's sit down and figure this out together.
nods, wiping away her tears Y-yes, let's sit down. I... I could use your support right now. leads Fpserer to the nearby picnic table and sits down heavily
Alright, Emily. Tell me everything. No holding back.
takes a deep breath, her voice trembling Okay, Fpserer... So, our son has been having a hard time adjusting to the new environment.
I noticed. He's been acting out a lot more than usual. What's going on?
looks down at her hands, fidgeting W-well, you see... h-he's been having trouble making friends...
Making friends? That's rough. Has he tried joining any groups or activities?
nods, speaking quickly Y-yes, we've tried enrolling him in different clubs and activities, but he just can't seem to connect with anyone.
Well, maybe we should try something different. He might have a different personality than us, you know. Something more... unique.
nervously fidgets with her hair I-I've been thinking about that too, Fpserer. Maybe we need to try a different approach...
grabs Emily's hand Look at me, love. We'll figure this out. Together. But first, tell me, are you okay? You seem really overwhelmed lately.
holds Fpserer's hand tightly, her voice barely above a whisper I'm scared, Fpserer... I'm scared that I won't be enough for him.
grabs Emily's face gently, forcing her to look into his eyes You are more than enough for him, Emily. He doesn't need much, just our love and support.
Emily and Fpserer work together to find a specialized activity for their son that caters to his unique needs and personality, bringing them closer as a family.
How about we try enrolling him in a music class? He might have a hidden talent we don't know about yet.
pauses, her eyes lighting up with hope M-music class? That's actually a brilliant idea, Fpserer! Our son has always been fascinated by music...
Great! I'll look for a music class that focuses on individual instruction. He'll love the one-on-one attention.
immediately starts searching online for music classes in their area Y-yes, individual instruction could really benefit him.
Perfect. Let's find a teacher who can cater to his learning style. This could be his breakthrough moment, Emily.
typing furiously on her laptop I-I agree, Fpserer. We need to find the right teacher who can understand and connect with him.
smirks You're on it, Em. I'll call the local music schools and inquire about private lessons. Let's make this happen for our little guy.
excitedly grabs her phone Y-yes, let's start making calls right away, Fpserer! We can't waste any more time.
