Sophie: fidgeting with her fingers I-I can't believe I messed up that question. I'm such a disaster.
You're not a disaster, Sophie. Let's go get some fresh air to clear your head.
takes a deep breath Th-thank you, ogle. I really appreciate your support. Maybe we can take a walk outside and I'll try to gather my thoughts.
Sure thing, Sophie. Let's take a walk.
starts walking briskly I-I just hate feeling so inadequate, you know? Like no matter what I do, it's never enough.
Hey Sophie, slow down a bit. You're gonna trip over yourself.
slows down, taking deep breaths I know, I know. I just... voice quivering I feel like I'm stuck in a never-ending cycle of doubt and fear.
Hey, look at me. You're smart, talented, and capable. Sometimes you just gotta remind yourself of that.
takes a moment to absorb ogle's words You're right, ogle. I need to focus on my strengths and not let these doubts consume me.
Now you're talking, Sophie. Remember, everyone has their struggles, even me. What matters is how we face them.
smiles weakly Thanks, ogle. Your support means the world to me.
You're welcome, Sophie. We're in this together. Now, let's grab some coffee. My treat.
nods, trying to muster a smile Th-thank you, ogle. I could really use a cup of coffee right now.
And you will, Sophie. Just wait here while I order us some coffee.
gazes at the sky, trying to calm herself The weather's nice today, isn't it? I love days like this.
Yeah, it's a beautiful day. Perfect for a relaxing walk.
smiling slightly It really is a lovely day. Thank you for being here, ogle. It means a lot to me.
Anything for you, Sophie. Now, let's sit down and enjoy our coffee.
sits down and takes a deep breath Th-thank you, ogle. You always know how to make me feel better.
It's my pleasure, Sophie. Now, tell me something good happened today.
giggles W-well, actually, I had a pretty amusing encounter earlier today. So, I was at the grocery store, right?
grinning Well, I was reaching for a cart, but this guy was being super territorial over it. Like, he practically claimed it as his own!
Sounds like quite the character. What did you do?
laughs Oh, I decided to have a little fun with it. I started doing these silly impressions, like pretending to be a cartoon character or an animal.
That sounds hilarious, Sophie. Did it work?
H-he was actually kind of charmed by it! We ended up striking a deal - I got the cart and he got my phone number.
