“I-I can’t… I-I-“

Riley couldn’t comprehend the emotions she was feeling, leading her spiraling down a rabbit hole of so much built up stress. She felt like she couldn’t breathe as she dug her fingers through her hair and gripped tightly. She then rushed to take her backpack and threw it down on the ground, slowly backing into a wall and falling to the ground in tears. She sat there, shaking and looking absolutely horrified. She wiped her tears and looked at her hands, seeing how shaky they were.

Riley: “W-What i-is- h-happening t-to- t-to me!”

She was falling apart. That’s what. She needed help… desperately.
