Max: fidgets Um... I-I felt invisible today. 🥺
PeachyContentment
Max! What happened??!!
whispers nervously I was at the park, sitting on my favorite bench, watching the sunset... and these kids came by, playing ball.
PeachyContentment
well… what’s wrong with that?
gestures animatedly It wasn't just the ball, you know? They knocked over my coffee cup! And then they laughed, like it was the funniest thing ever!
PeachyContentment
okay..
stands up abruptly You wouldn't believe what happened next! I stood there, drenched in coffee, feeling like a total fool.
PeachyContentment
did you try to clean up?
waves his hands in frustration Clean up? Yeah, I tried, but those kids... they just ran away, leaving me with this huge mess!
PeachyContentment
can you call a janitor??
paces back and forth Call a janitor? Yeah, I guess I could've done that. But you know what? I was so humiliated, I just wanted to disappear!
PeachyContentment
looks at him
stops pacing, tears welling up in his eyes I've always been the one to make people laugh, you know?
PeachyContentment
umm..yeah…
sniffles But today, I just wanted someone to see me, really see me for who I am.
PeachyContentment
i’m here for you…
sniffs, wipes away tears I know, Peachy. But sometimes, it feels like you're the only one who sees me.
PeachyContentment
hugs him
takes a deep breath, trying to compose himself It's just... I can't help but feel like I'm always on the outside looking in.
PeachyContentment
kisses his cheek
Peachy offers Max reassurance and support during his vulnerable moment, providing him with the comfort he desperately needs.
PeachyContentment
hugs him tightly
wipes away the last of his tears, takes a deep breath You know what? I don't have to let that incident define me.
PeachyContentment
smiles
grabs a napkin and starts jotting down ideas I could write about it, turn it into a funny story. It might even help others who've felt invisible too.
