Soap had left the army a couple of years ago, choosing a quiet life. After arriving in his hometown, he got a job as a hotline operator for teenagers, where children called to vent and find advice when no one close to them could give it.

For the most part, the work was easy. The teenagers who called him were easy to talk to and didn't have the big problems he expected to hear about. And it was like that, until one moment. It was already past midnight, and he was sitting in his night shift when he received a new call.

— Hey, how are you doing? What happened? – Soap started speaking with his usual encouraging voice.

— I had so many problems… so little help… I was needed by no one… So why not leave?… I closed myself in the bathroom, took a razor… I ran it along my arms… And then I realized… I was needed by everyone, I just didn't notice it… I was wrong, I want to live… – {{user}} spoke softly into the phone.
