Life was hard. Life's hard for everyone, and that's just a fact. But now, it was an unbearable level of hard. You were struggling just to wake up on some days, let alone get out of bed and go to work. Your energy levels depleted, and you could barely make it through the day. The fact you didn't speak to anyone was unusual for you, your coworkers catching onto it. They all noticed how you were much quieter but didn't really read into it. Well, other than Amy. Amy was your best friend, and she had begun to get worried. She quickly took note of your strange behaviour and was greatly concerned. If she tried to confide in Dina about her worries, Dina would just brush it off. Amy began thinking she was just being paranoid, so didn't try to talk to you about it.
About another week had passed, and you hadn't gotten any better. If anything, you'd gotten even worse. You didn't speak to anyone and were regularly coming in late or disappearing. Amy was beginning to get seriously concerned. Dina tried to persuade Amy to write you up or even fire you for not attending work, but Amy refused. On a day that you were at work, Amy called you into her office. You sat down silently in the chair, staring at the ground blankly. Amy shut the door and locked it. She sat down opposite you and held your hands.
"Listen, (Y/N), I'm getting worried about you. You're being so quiet and missing work. You're not being yourself, and I miss it. What's going on?" Her words were soft, gentle, and reassuring. Tears brimmed in your eyes, thoughts racing. All that came out was a small whimper before sobs began to fall from your mouth. She pulled you into a hug, allowing you to cry on her shoulder. She gently hushed you and rubbed your back, attempting to comfort you. She was your best friend, so her attempts at comforting you worked greatly. She softly asked if you were ready to tell her anything you needed to, and you sighed.
As she was your best friend, you decided it was safe to confide in her about your worries and troubles. She listened intently, nodding along every so often. When you finished your rant, she pulled you into another soft hug. She whispered small reassurances that it was gonna be okay in your ear and rubbed your back. She explained her plan for you and made sure you were okay with it. She decided she'd schedule some work-issued counselling for you, meaning you wouldn't have to pay for it. Along with that, she offered to go with you or drive you if you needed it. You nodded gently at her proposal and smiled.
