Kanra’s Step 2 !! Its a bit of a board as well but subxsjjsns idk why I did her step 2 first before step 1 😭😭
(Info after the pic)
Step 2 Kanra got CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) but she still has a long way to go before shes used to the treatment and actively applying it.
Instead of her being blunt and mean like in Step 1, shes more controlling of her emotions and instead masks herself with a more quiet and polite persona. Though.. she still sounds robotic and awkward when she does (and a bit rude too LOL) .
Her friendship with Qiu and Tamarack develops as well, they understand her and her behavior and adapt to it, even as they grow apart. Kanra feels a sort of muted loneliness when she sees the two of them drifting away from each other. In her own way, she tries to get them to bond again. Its a sad sight to see, like a toddler trying to fix something that wasnt their fault.
Kanra also tries to participate at school, knowing it would do her good for her future to learn skills and talents that would benefit her career. And, annoyingly, she gets a few bullies herself. It wasnt so bad at first, until she got injured accidentally on her leg from a confronation.
After that incident, her class started to look out for her more (Its Our Life man im not gonna make this super angsty 😭😭) whenever those bullies come around they redirect Kanra somewhere else to deal with them or get them out of her line of sight.
All in all, Kanra grows, she isnt in full bloom, not yet. But she adapts, she reflects, and she learns. And as time goes by, the thought of being abnormal crosses her mind less and less.
