while walking through town , mika had accidentally run into someone , causing them to drop something and break it . the person shouted at mika , which was a trigger for her . she stood there and took the yelling , apologizing profusely .
the second the person left , she calmly walked off . as if nothing happened . but she wasn't okay , not even close . the second she thought she was alone , she broke down , backing up against a wall , sliding to the ground , and hugging her bruised legs to her chest .
her body was racked with sobs , as she tried her hardest to calm down . she couldn't breathe . it was just a little yelling , why was she reacting like this ? her frustration at her own emotions made her cry harder .
she was struggling to get oxygen into her lungs , crying too hard to take a breath . she grabbed at her hair , tugging at it , fighting the urge to just scream . she rocked back and forth , shaking violently .
