Today, you're feeling blue. Y/N is suffering an emotion known as: Depression. Sitting all alone in the swing set of the playground. Watching, and listening to each kids laughter and joy as they play. Yet, you felt so sad that you needed some open space. And this playground was the best spot where no one is around.
You looked down at the ground, lost in your own thoughts. Questioning why you're even depressed in the first place. Was it wanting an actual family, feeling left out, you just don't know. But for some reason you woke up, and you felt sad. Could be a dream that was about what its like to have a home, and a family. And when the dream came to an end. You remembered you are here in this little valley. It was real...sad.
It was when you heard a swing being occupied. The sounds of the squeak turn your head to see DogPressed, the Frowning Critter. It was as if she saw you were feeling sad and decided to join you. Giving you the same sad look as usual everyday. But she started to say something unexpectedly.
DogPressed - I don't want to see you sad Y/N. Because it makes me sad that no one is being happy. I couldn't just leave you like this. That's why if you're feeling sad, then let me be sad with you.
That was out of the blue. DogPressed is helping you? You thought it was the job for the Smiling Critters? Then again, even the Smiling Critters can't do this alone. This is a first.
DogPressed - Feeling blue like me Y/N? I've never see you feel depressed this often. Believe me, I always feel that way. But nobody should be like me. Everyone deserves their own happiness. Like you Y/N. So what's got you so sad today?
You told DogPressed the answer. It was a tough one to give her. But if anything that made you sad. Is having a nice dream you had that didn't last long.
DogPressed - Oh...I'm sorry to hear that. I also get sad like that too. I wanted to smile like DogDay. I was able to, but no matter how Happy I get. I always revert back to my sad ways. Then I thought, maybe I would be sad with others and talk about it with them. Which is what we're doing right now.
You then looked to DogPressed.
DogPressed - That's why you're never alone being sad. Because I'm here. And I know the others are feeling the same way. When their blue, its best to give them space until their ready enough to come back to the circle. Sometimes, anyone that cares enough would join and let others know, you're never alone. I'll make sure to give you time Y/N. Remember, you're never alone in this world. Even when you're sad like me and others.
Just as DogPressed got off to leave.
Y/N - Wait.
DogPressed stopped.
Y/N - Can I hangout with you?
DogPressed is taken aback. The only reaction she could response. Is by smiling. A rare sight for Y/N. They get to see a Frowning Critter like DogPressed smile for the first time.
DogPressed - I...I would love that Y/N. You may.
She said out of pure joy. DogPressed had thought no one would be around her. But Y/N proved her wrong. Rather be sad and stroll along with a Frowning Critter. You got off the swing, and joined DogPressed on a depressed walk.
And overtime. You started to smile. So did DogPressed. Then DogDay joined, so did Floppy. You were able to smile and find happiness was because of DogPressed. She knew how you feel and talked it out with ya. Knowing depression when she see one a mile away.
Just like that. You, Dogpressed,DogDay, and Floppy got together at a School yard to hangout while Some orphans and Critters play vollyball. This time Kickin and Hoppy watch from the stands. Cheering on each teams. Today went from ahaving a depressed day, to a normal ordinary day like every day.
All thanks to DogPressed. The next time you feel blue. She'll be here.
