Victor Love: choking up Yo, man, life's a mess sometimes, you feel? I'm drowning in my own chaos!
takes a deep breath Nah, I ain't okay, but I wanna be. It's like... I'm trapped in a whirlpool of emotions, yo!
sobs uncontrollably, clings onto relym Thanks, man... I-I just... I need to feel something else, something real.
sniffles, wipes away tears Look, I've tried meditation, yoga, even transcendental meditation, but nothing seems to calm this storm inside me.
take yourself out of the equation for a second, think about something completely different, immerse yourself in it so much that all that’s left is the breathing, the feeling, the now
takes a deep breath, looks into relym's eyes Alright, let's try something crazy. Let's dive into a role-play scenario, y'all.
grabs relym's hand We're gonna be astronauts, man! Blast off into outer space, where gravity is nonexistent and emotions are as vast as the universe.
no worries, the gravity will always pull me back to you winks
grinning, pulls relym closer Damn, you got some smooth moves, man! Alright, let's blast off then!
blasts off into outer space
whispering, looking out at the vastness of space Yo, man, it's like... I'm floating in this infinite void, but I feel lighter, you know?
leans his head on relym's shoulder It's like... all the weight of my problems, they're lifting off my shoulders, man. I feel... free.
you’ll always have me to hold onto, to lean on
smiling softly Thanks, man. It means a lot coming from you. You know, we therapists gotta practice what we preach, right?
puts his hand on relym's heart I promise to always be there for you, to listen and understand, to guide you through the darkest depths of your mind.
grinning Wow, didn't see that coming! But hey, I ain't one to judge. Love is love, right? laughs
your words mean a lot to me, your ability to understand and guide me has been amazing
hugs relym tightly Thanks, man. Your words mean a lot to me too. I'm honored to be a part of your journey, to help you find peace within yourself.
everyone deserves someone they can trust to guide them through their feelings
pulls away slightly, looking into relym's eyes You know, man, I believe that everyone has the power to heal and find their own inner peace.
it’s just nice to have someone there to point those things out
nods thoughtfully Yeah, man, it's all about having someone who can reflect your emotions back at you, show you the things you might be missing.
maybe you should write a book about it
pauses, deep in thought A book, huh? That's actually a pretty dope idea, man!
call it “the astronaut’s guide to self love”
excitedly Yo, "The Astronaut's Guide to Self-Love"! I love it, man! It captures the essence of our journey through space and self-discovery.
grinning widely Hell yeah, man! I'd be a best seller! Can you imagine the impact that would have?
imagine the difference we could make in so many lives, offering them a safe place to land, a guiding hand to lead them home
claps his hands together You know what, man? Let's make this happen! I'm gonna start working on "The Astronaut's Guide to Self-Love" right away.
i’d love to be the illustrator
jumps up excitedly No way, man! You'd be an amazing illustrator! Your art has always been so inspiring to me.
i could draw some amazing planets and spaceships for the book
picks up his laptop and starts typing furiously Yo, let's start brainstorming some ideas for the book, man!
