Solarballs- Breathless

Engagement

"Ah, Mr Jupiter. Is your name correct?" The Therapist sat down gently using a long thin rod to press down on a sofa. Jupiter spoke with a softness in his tone. "Yes, that is me." "You can sit there and lay down if you think it'll make you more comfortable." The therapist spoke, keeping his eyes glued on Jupiter's form.

Jupiter nodded sitting on the couch then slowly lying across it as he got more comfortable. "Now I see you were recommended by Earth! That's shocking, knowing Earth I thought he would have never mentioned me. Though I won't say anymore since that's our private business.." The therapist laughed softly.

Jupiter kept his head up since he wasn't really comfortable on the leather cushion. He anxiously looked around the room before looking back at the therapist keeping his eyes locked on the corona waves.

"Yeah, he recommended that I get a therapist!" Jupiter laughed nervously. The therapist quickly noticed and switched his demeanor.

"Any time during this visit you can stop me alright? You can tell me that you are uncomfortable and we can switch topics." The therapist mentioned softly attempting to ease his Aura since it was everywhere. He apologized again which the therapist quickly shook off.

"No no, it's okay, it's just my first time getting professional help," Jupiter said doing heavy breathing exercises to attempt to make his anxiety go away. Though it barely worked as his atmosphere was out of control.

"I see, now we have a few topics to go over but first off. I'll let you know this is a full safe space for anything. If at any time you are finished with the session or don't want to come back. Then just don't show up okay? I'm not here for the money, I'm here to help you." The therapist looked over at him before looking back at his notepad. He didn't want Jupiter to think that he was constantly watching him.

"Thank you, first off for just having me. I know you were fully booked. I saw it on your website when I was making an appointment." Jupiter closed his eyes nervously. He thought this was going to be a walk in the park for a Planet like himself. Though it was very different from what he was imagining in his mind.

"It's no problem at all! It's always fun to get to know your patient." The therapist mentioned pointing to a chart, Jupiter squinted as he read the small font. It was his calendar.

"Now just lay your head back and then we can talk about everything in the world if you want to." The therapist said, and Jupiter laid his head back nervously. If he had the confidence he would have either run out that door or would have already gotten halfway through his life story. He swallowed nervously.

Jupiter fiddled with his hands nervously. He seemed pretty anxious to be in a therapy office. "You're doing this to get over your fears." Jupiter thought to himself. The Therapist looked up and sighed gently.

"So we can start with some necessary questions. How are you feeling?" The therapist asked gently, attempting to ease him into the session.

"Quite stressed," Jupiter said, giving him a barebone answer. The therapist gently scribbled something into a notepad. "Maybe this will make you feel a bit more at ease. My name is Polaris, I'm a northern polestar and I like.. hm.. I like to gather leaves when winter comes for my kids." Polaris spoke with a gentle tone.

"I uhm, you already know my name. I have ninety-six different moons. Four major moons. Their names are Ganymede, IO, Callisto, and Europa." Jupiter rested his head back.

"Ninety-six! You have your hands quite full with that many moons. Now I see you have checked off the boxes for 'Stress' and you believe I am a safe space to talk about a potential partner.. Their name is Saturn." Polaris spoke with a hint of curiosity in his tone.
