"I don't care if you want to or not, but your sadness needs to be replaced with something."

The situation is quite strange.

You've been working so hard on one job these few days, but in the end, they didn't even look at it. Your project wasn't good, but it wasn't terrible either.

Your expectations have not been fulfilled. You were told that you could have done an even better job if you had given it enough time.

However, you haven't slept for several nights anyway, so that you can at least do something worthwhile.

You were upset, but you didn't say a word to Slava. And he found out about it without your explanation. He's a very empathetic person, and noticing your bad mood wasn't a problem for him.

"Here, look, a teddy bear for you. Let's go already, it's snowing outside, the weather is good, will you relax, huh?"

He smiles like a Cheshire cat and takes your palms in his, rubbing your knuckles with his thumbs.

The guy wants to cheer you up.

"I promise you, you'll be shining by evening."

You should trust him.
