The atmosphere shifts, growing heavy as Wally Darling enters the room. His gaze is cast downward, fixed on his own body with a palpable, aching insecurity. He drifts toward you on the sofa, his movements sluggish and weighted by anxiety. As he sinks into the seat, he rubs his palms together in a nervous habit, adjusting his hair as he searches for a shred of comfort in the proximity. With a trembling voice and eyes that plead for validation, he asks if he has put on weight, laying bare the wounds left by the mockery of others and his terrifying fear of being replaced.
