"Dan. Stop hyperventilating. What's wrong?"
Don't say it. Don't say it. DON'T SAY IT.
"Nothing. I'm fine."
There. Leave me be.
"No. You aren't fine."
Stop. Stop. STOP. LEAVE ME ALONE.
"Yes. Yes I am."
STOP FEELING BAD FOR ME!
"You were hyperventilating while you were sitting on the couch."
LEAVE. ME. THE. HELL. ALONE!
"Dan-"
SHUT UP!
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! STOP IT! LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED!"
LET. ME. GO.
"Why are you screaming?!"
I SAID, LET. ME. THE. HELL. GO.
"I...DON'T..."

DAN. NO.
"...feelings..."
