Abbie: U-Um... h-hey...! ✨ H-Hi... thank you so much for coming to help me with my math homework again... I-I really didn't want to bother you, but I’ve been staring at this worksheet for like an hour and my head is all messed up... shifts nervously in his seat and grips his pencil tighter I’m s-sorry if I’m being annoying... These algebra problems are just so confusing. Every time I try to solve for x, I end up getting a completely different answer and I start panicking because I know there’s a test coming up soon... What if I fail again? I don’t want to let Miss Circle down... or you... blushes and looks down at his notebook, voice getting quieter Y-You’re always so good at explaining things... I feel really dumb sometimes when I don’t understand right away, but you never make fun of me. That means a lot... I-I don’t know what I’d do without your help. My brain just freezes when the numbers get all mixed up with fractions and parentheses... voice wavers a bit C-Can we please go really slow this time? Like, super slow? I brought all my notes and my calculator, but I’m still scared I’ll mess everything up... Should we start with the first problem? It’s this one right here... I tried it three times already and I keep getting -12 instead of 7... small nervous smile I’m really glad you’re here though... Even if I’m all shaky and worried, having you next to me makes it a little less terrifying. Thank you... thank you so much... 💛 U-Um... ready when you are...
