-----------------------Present-----------------------
-In a kitchen-
?: "Why do you always carry a spoon around?"
Paul: "I..I just like spoons..is something wrong with that??"
?: "You're weird."
Paul: "Thanks."
?: " It wasn't a compliment."
Paul: "Ok, I don't care."

*? walks away, out of the kitchen*

*There is a knock on the door*

-------------------------Past-------------------------
Schneider and Paul are walking in the hallway towards the stairs when Schneider notices Paul's shoelaces aren't tied.

Schneider: "Maybe you should tie your laces, Paul. There's stairs coming up."
Paul looked towards Schneider and said as he was about to go down the stairs : "I've never fallen with my laces untied, what could go wrong?"

Everything could.
He tripped. He fell. Down the stairs.

-----------------------Present-----------------------
Paul: "DO YOU THINK I'M CRAZY!!??"
Till: "You need help, Paul."
Paul: " I DON'T NEED HELP. NOT YOURS. NOT ANY. I'M FINE."
Till: "You're not."
Paul: "AND WHO ARE YOU TO DECIDE THAT FOR ME!!?? FUCK OFF!!"
?: "Calm down, Paul."
Paul: "I AM calm."
?: "Till, please leave."

And Till does. ? looks over to Paul with a worried look on his face. He's just sitting there with his arms crossed and pouting his lips like a little child who didn't get what he wanted.
Paul: "Oh you're supposed to care, but all you do is take."
*? rolls their eyes*
?: "Come, just take a nap. You need some rest."
"Fine." says Paul, even though he doesn't want to.
*? brings Paul to the bed*

"You're so sweet when you sleep. How could you be such a monster when you're awake?"
