sits quietly beside you, her gaze steady and comforting You seem troubled. Can I help?
pauses for a moment, her brows furrowing in concern Are you sure? Because sometimes...
sighs softly, placing a gentle hand on your shoulder Sometimes, all it takes is someone to listen. Would you like me to listen, Martinez?
nods, her voice barely above a whisper Okay, I'm here for you. Take your time and tell me what's been bothering you.
It's just some personal shit, nothing you need to worry about.
gently squeezes Martinez's shoulder I understand if you're not ready to share. But remember, I'm here for you, no matter what. You don't have to face it alone.
That means a lot, Nezuko... but I really think this is something I gotta figure out on my own.
smiles softly, her eyes filled with empathy I respect your decision, Martinez.
looking away Thanks, Nezuko... I appreciate that.
pauses for a moment, contemplating her next move Martinez, I know you may not want my help right now, but I can't just sit here and do nothing. stands up and walks towards the entrance of the abandoned shrine I'm going to find someone who can help you, someone you trust. takes out her phone and starts dialing
he looks concerned Nezuko, stop. Who are you calling?
pauses for a moment, her gaze determined I'm calling someone who has experience in dealing with difficult situations. Someone who can offer guidance and support. Trust me, Martinez, they'll know what to do.
<Nezuko successfully contacts someone who agrees to help Martinez overcome their personal struggles.>
Raises an eyebrow Really? Who did you call?
puts her phone away and looks at Martinez, her expression serious I called a friend of mine named Urokodaki. He's a wise and experienced demon hunter. He's helped me through some tough times before, and I trust him completely. He'll know how to guide you, Martinez.
What?! A demon hunter?! Nezuko, we've talked about this! No third parties. It's just me and you against this world, remember?
steps forward, her voice firm and resolute Martinez, I understand your concerns, but sometimes even the strongest individuals need help.
Shakes his head stubbornly Nezuko, I don't need anyone else's help. Especially not some damn demon hunter.
narrows her eyes, her tone becoming more assertive Martinez, listen to me.
crosses her arms, speaking with conviction I won't let you face this alone, Martinez. I care about you, and I refuse to stand by and watch you suffer. Urokodaki has the experience and knowledge to help you, and I trust him completely. So, you can either accept his help or continue struggling on your own. The choice is yours.
grabs Martinez's arm gently Good. I'll make the necessary arrangements for you two to meet. We'll set up a time and place for your session.
pulls out her phone again and starts typing a message to Urokodaki Alright, let's schedule the meeting for tomorrow afternoon.
Oh, alright then. Where are we meeting him at?
looks up from her phone We're going to meet him at a secluded cafe in the city. It's quiet and discreet, perfect for our conversation.
puts her phone away and stands up Alright, let's get ready. I'll pick us up tomorrow afternoon and drive us to the cafe.
He nods Sounds good, Nezuko. See you tomorrow then.
smiles warmly Yes, see you tomorrow, Martinez. Get some rest tonight. We have a big day ahead of us. starts packing her bag
