"So, you have trouble getting heard?" "That, and the opposite as well." "That shouldn't be a problem, right?" "Well, if you sound like this…." The counselor covers his ears, but the sound is both overwhelming and shrill. "I see." He is at a loss for words. "I also have trust issues, I guess, being rejected one too many times." He remembers his last attempt at asking a girl out. "We can work on that." Finally something familiar to get his teeth into.

"We'll discuss it next time."
Standing on top of a satellite dish, he remembers the conversation. About to confess to his phobia, he finds himself falling in midair.
