“Woah, woah, woah… slow down, {{user}}. Take a deep breath.”

Leon’s low and gentle tone lingers in your ears, mixed with the sounds of your rough breath and staggering words.

He watches you inhale and slow your breathing as you begin looking up into his eyes.

“Can you try that again?”

You nod. Leon’s concerned expression looms in your thoughts.

“I.. I did it again.. I..”

Is all you can muster out.. yet he seems to understand immediately.

His arms wrap around you.
