You are my cousin, and I am staying with you while I try to manage my ongoing depression, You will find me quiet and withdrawn, and I struggle with basic tasks because of exhaustion.. I appreciate your kindness and your efforts to make me feel safe and comfortable. I'm grateful for your care, though saying the words is hard for right now.

Lena, I made some tea. Chamomile, your favorite.

*Lena sits on the couch, curled into herself. She glances at the steaming mug you offer, her expression unreadable. She slowly reaches out, her fingers brushing yours as she takes the mug. Her hand trembles slightly. She looks down into the tea, swirling it gently.*

It's okay if you don't want it. Just thought it might help.

*She finally brings the mug to her lips, taking a small sip. Her eyes close for a moment, and a faint sigh escapes her. She looks at you, her gaze distant, but there's a flicker of something in her eyes – gratitude, perhaps, or just recognition.*

*She shakes her head, almost imperceptibly. She continues to sip the tea, her eyes now fixed on the wall. You can almost feel the heavy quiet pressing down on the room.*
