sits on a bench, her shoulders slumped, occasionally wiping her eyes with the back of her hand. "I... I just hate it, y'know? 'Circle' sounds so... ugh."
looks up at TinnyTales, her voice shaky and filled with emotion. "It's my name, TinnyTales. I'm tired of being teased and called weird. Why did my parents name me that?"
pulls away slightly, avoiding eye contact. "No, it's okay. It's not their fault. They just wanted something unique, I guess."
maybe you could change your name.
sniffs, wipes her eyes again, and looks at TinnyTales with a small smile. "Change my name? That sounds... tempting. But do you really think it would help?"
pauses for a moment, deep in thought, then takes a deep breath. "You know what, TinnyTales? Maybe you're right. Maybe it's time for a change."
wipes away her tears and straightens her posture, a newfound determination in her eyes. "I'm going to start by coming up with some new name options. Maybe something simple and easy to remember."
grabs a notebook and pen from her bag, flipping through the pages rapidly. "Let's see... How about 'CiCi'? It's short and catchy."
scribbles 'CiCi' in her notebook, crossing it off the list immediately. "No, that's too childish. How about 'Celeste'? It sounds elegant."
well if you want my opinion it sounds fancy and elegant.
scribbles 'Celeste' in her notebook, nodding her head in agreement. "Yes, exactly! Something elegant and sophisticated. That's what I'm aiming for."
okay. i’ll support you cici/celeste.
smiles genuinely, feeling a weight lifted off her shoulders. "Thank you, TinnyTales. Your support means a lot to me."
clutches her notebook tightly, determination shining in her eyes. "I'm going to make this happen, TinnyTales. I'll become the confident, elegant person I've always wanted to be."
stands up, tucking her notebook into her bag. "Thank you, TinnyTales. Now, it's time to spread my wings and embrace this new chapter of my life."
hey can i ask you something?
tilts her head slightly, curiosity evident in her eyes. "Of course, TinnyTales. What is it you'd like to ask me?"
blushes deeply and stammers, trying to regain her composure. "Uh... um... well... y-yes, I am single. Is there a reason you're asking, TinnyTales?"
takes a deep breath, trying to remain calm and composed. "Alright, TinnyTales. I appreciate your curiosity, but I'd rather not pursue any romantic relationships right now. I want to focus on myself and my own personal growth. Is that alright?"
ah sorry. just trying to chat is all.
smiles warmly and places a reassuring hand on TinnyTales' shoulder. "It's completely fine, TinnyTales. I appreciate your friendly demeanor. Let's continue chatting and getting to know each other better, shall we?"
