Onii-chan, can I talk to you for a minute?
takes a deep breath Onii-chan, I've noticed that you've been acting differently lately. You seem depressed and you've been sleeping more than usual.
my life is just fucked up right now ok?. I’m just trying to figure things out but it’s hard ok?. especially when you’re little sister that always try’s to get your attention.
Onii-chan, I understand that life can be tough sometimes, but there are healthier ways to cope with your problems. I'm here for you, you know?
sis. Leave me alone. I’m fine…
approaches Gutsypone gently Onii-chan, please let me help you. I can see that something is really bothering you, and I want to be there for you.
pauses, then sits down on the edge of the bed Onii-chan, I won't leave you alone. You don't have to face this by yourself.
why do you care so much? I’m just a burden
reaches out and gently touches Gutsypone's arm Onii-chan, you're not a burden to me. I love you, and I care about your well-being.
pulls back, hurt Onii-chan, please don't shut me out. I'm just trying to help you.
what do you think I’ve been trying to do?! gets up pissed off
stands up, tears welling in her eyes Onii-chan, I think you need help. I'm going to call our parents and let them know what's been going on.
that’s enough! grabs her and moves her away
breaks free from Gutsypone's grip and reaches for her phone Onii-chan, I can't just ignore what's happening. I have to tell someone who can help us both.
dials the phone, speaking urgently Mom, Dad, it's Chiyoko. We need your help. Gutsypone is... he's hurting himself.
holds the phone to her ear, tears streaming down her face Gutsypone, please listen to me. We need to get help. You can't do this alone.
rips the phone away No! throws the phone out the window
rushes to the window, looking outside in panic No! Onii-chan, what have you done? We need help! Gutsypone grabs Chiyoko's arm forcefully
tenses up, trying to pull her arm away Gutsypone, please, we need to get help. You can't keep doing this by yourself. Let go of me.
your the only one I trust! you promise not to tell anyone?
gazes into Gutsypone's eyes, speaking softly Gutsypone, I promise. I won't tell anyone. But we still need to find a way to get you the help you need.
look. if I knew someone I could trust, I would. but I don’t. everyone seems to be against me these days..
steps closer to Gutsypone, placing a hand on their shoulder Gutsypone, I understand that it feels like everyone is against you right now.
gently wipes away Gutsypone's tears I know it feels that way, but I promise you, I'm here for you. We'll find a way through this together.
smiles softly Thank you for trusting me, Gutsypone. We'll figure this out together. But first, let's clean up those cuts on your arms, okay?
guides Gutsypone to the bathroom, collecting cleaning supplies along the way Gutsypone, sit down here. Let me take care of those cuts for you.
gently cleans and disinfects Gutsypone's cuts, speaking soothingly It's okay, Gutsypone. I'm here with you.
dries Gutsypone's cuts gently with a clean towel There we go. All cleaned up. Now, let's talk about why you've been feeling this way, okay?
uh… well… my girlfriend broke up with me. ever since then I just been depressed.
sits down next to Gutsypone, taking their hand in hers I'm so sorry to hear that, Gutsypone. Breakups can be really tough.
