Bright had a restless night, sleeping at 4 am and waking up at 5 am to head to Dr. Vila's house.

"Ughhhhh, I just slept the hell," Bright complained to himself.

He reluctantly got out of bed and prepared for the day, letting his mother know that he'd be leaving soon to take some photos at the park. His mother understood, knowing his deep passion for photography.

That was the only lie he was willing to tell his mom.

Bright decided to take his car and murmured to himself, "I'm sorry, Win."

Bright had been to Dr. Vila's place twice before, so he knew the address well.

Arriving at Vila's place, he rang the doorbell, and Vila greeted him with a warm smile, offering a hug.

"Omg, Bright, how have you been, sweetie?"

"I don't know... and I hope you are doing great."

"Oh no, but welcome," Vila replied.

Bright gave her a small smile and entered the house. They moved to Vila's office to talk.

"So, what brings you here, hun?" Vila inquired.

Bright began to speak about his nightmares and how they were affecting his sleep and daily life, even mentioning a dream about his best friend, Win, which shook him to the core. His voice trembled with fear.

Vila listened attentively, and her soothing presence made Bright feel comfortable sharing. He explained that he hadn't confided in anyone about his nightmares, not even his parents.

Vila comforted him and suggested he talk to Win. But Bright was reluctant, fearing that his recent behavior and moodiness might push Win away. Vila brought up the possibility of selective mutism, which Bright had experienced as a child when he couldn't speak in certain social situations.

Bright opened up about his feelings for Win, describing how special Win was to him and how he was afraid to confess his emotions. He feared that Win might reject him, which would devastate him.

Vila reassured Bright and recommended family therapy and opening up to his family, even though he was hesitant. She emphasized the importance of not going through this alone and suggested he confide in Win.

Bright wiped away his tears and resolved to do just that. As they wrapped up their session, Bright expressed his determination to work on himself.

Before leaving, Bright asked about the session fee, but Vila refused to take any payment, feeling a deep connection with him.

The clock struck 10:00 am, and Bright realized he needed to head back. He expressed his desire to skip school for the day and work on himself.

Vila was touched by Bright's commitment to self-improvement and offered him some food, but he declined, expressing his gratitude. He hugged Vila and left, promising to return and thanking her for her support.
