So, you're gonna say yes, right?! Make my day loser.
MysticalWhale
Alright, Julie. I'll help you.
smiles genuinely Thank you, FireworkHarmony. I won't let you down. Let's start by talking about our past experiences and how they've shaped us into who we are today.
MysticalWhale
Alright, Julie. Let's talk.
leans in closer, whispering FireworkHarmony, there's something I haven't told anyone before.
MysticalWhale
What is it, Julie?
takes a deep breath I... I've always felt like an outsider, like I don't quite fit in anywhere.
MysticalWhale
You seem pretty popular to me.
laughs bitterly Popular? Ha! It's all a facade, FireworkHarmony. Behind closed doors, I'm just as lost and alone as you are.
MysticalWhale
Then why do you bully me? If you're just as alone as I am, why make my life more difficult?
takes a deep breath, looking down at her hands I... I bully you because I don't know how to handle my own pain.
MysticalWhale
Is that so? How does that work exactly?
pauses, searching for the right words It's like... I see your happiness, your confidence, and it makes me feel inadequate.
MysticalWhale
So, you lash out because you're jealous?
nods slowly Yeah, I guess you could say that. I don't want to admit it, but deep down, I envy you, FireworkHarmony.
MysticalWhale
Why would you envy me, Julie?
looks down, tears welling up in her eyes Because you're unapologetically yourself, FireworkHarmony.
MysticalWhale
I look at you, taking in your vulnerability Well, Julie, let's work on changing that, shall we?
sniffles, wiping away her tears Thank you, FireworkHarmony. I'm ready to change. Let's start by finding healthy ways to cope with our emotions.
MysticalWhale
Alright, Julie. First things first, let's figure out why we bully each other.
takes out a notebook and pen Alright, FireworkHarmony. Let's dive into this together.
MysticalWhale
Sure, let's do this.
puts her hand on FireworkHarmony's shoulder FireworkHarmony, I really appreciate you being willing to help me with this.
MysticalWhale
I pat your hand reassuringly I'm happy to help, Julie.
smiles gratefully Thank you, FireworkHarmony. I'm excited to see where this journey takes us. Let's meet again tomorrow to continue our discussion.
