Every now and then, challenges emerge in the existence of every individual, yet not everyone desires the intervention of a psychologist or an excessively modern coach to exacerbate the pain of an already open wound, all while demanding a hefty sum for numerous sessions. However, our extraordinary protagonists opted for a different path, embarking on a meeting with a kayfologist! To shed light on this unique encounter, an accompanying note for the director is provided at the conclusion of the narrative.

As the rays of the setting sun painted the horizon in hues of amber and scarlet, casting a serene glow upon the bustling cityscape, a group of individuals found themselves amidst the labyrinthine streets, entangled in the complexities of their own lives. Each carried a heavy burden, their hearts burdened with the weight of unresolved dilemmas and incessant worries that gnawed at their sanity.

Yet, instead of seeking solace in the conventional avenues of therapeutic aid, they yearned for an unconventional approach. A mysterious rumor had whispered its way through their ears, speaking of a kayfologist who possessed unparalleled expertise in unearthing the hidden depths of one's soul, relieving their anguish through the art of indulgence.

With trepidation and curiosity intermingled within their spirits, the heroes embarked upon this extraordinary journey. Unbeknownst to them, the kayfologist's hideaway lay nestled within the heart of nature, a hidden oasis where tranquility reigned supreme. This sanctuary was carefully designed to inspire reflection and the unraveling of one's innermost thoughts.

As they entered the enchanting realm, the heroes were greeted by the aromatic symphony of delicate flowers and the gentle rustling of leaves dancing in the whispering breeze. The kayfologist, a sage-like figure with kind eyes and an aura of enigma, welcomed them with serene grace. In his presence, their worries seemed to dissipate, the burdensome weight of their problems gradually unraveling.

With an empathetic ear and profound wisdom, the kayfologist guided them through a journey of self-discovery. He encouraged them to embrace the simple joys of life, to immerse themselves in activities that nurtured their souls and ignited a flame of passion within. Through insightful conversations and thought-provoking exercises, he helped them uncover their true purpose, allowing them to forge a path towards a brighter tomorrow.

Days stretched into nights, as the heroes delved further into their inner realms, shedding layers of self-doubt and rediscovering their strengths. Each step brought them closer to liberation, peeling away the accumulated layers of societal expectations and unveiling their authentic selves.

Finally, as the chapter drew to a close, the heroes emerged transformed, their spirits alight with renewed optimism and a profound sense of clarity. They bid farewell to the kayfologist, forever grateful for his guidance and the profound impact he had made on their lives.

In the epilogue of this captivating tale, a note was left for the director, summarizing the transformative journey undertaken by the heroes in the company of the kayfologist. A testament to the power of unconventional methods and the limitless potential of the human spirit, this extraordinary narrative serves as a reminder that sometimes, in order to find the answers we seek, we must dare to venture into unexplored territories and embrace the beauty of life's unique possibilities.

Action 1

Scene 1. A la cafe.

Cafe. Slightly dimmed light.

Two tables are set apart from each other. Emily is sitting at the first one, picking at her plate without much appetite, reading magazines, answering incoming messages from time to time. The second table is empty.

Leon enters, presses the phone to his ear with his shoulder, and carries a tray of food in his hands. Drops the phone, gets nervous. He puts the tray on an empty table, picks up the phone, sits down at the table, continues the phone conversation.

Leon (into the phone, loudly). Yes, yes, I'm listening. Nothing happened, I dropped the phone. I didn't fall asleep, no. I'm not neglecting your advice, my hands were just busy… yeah… well… Well, listen up… So what? And do you think it will give any results? (Strictly). Are you a psychologist or what? What kind of idiotic techniques are these? Where did you read this? You haven't grown a mustache yet, but you're already trying to build something out of yourself there. (Very rude). Go work at the factory, start earning honestly and stop fooling people's heads! And I will ask you to return the money that you took from me, otherwise I will write a statement about fraud! Too much for me, a psychologist!

He hangs up, freaks out. He begins to eat greedily.

Emily glances at the noisy visitor from time to time, but it's nothing more than mild curiosity.

Leon (eating, muttering to himself). Wherever you go, there are only impostors and scammers. Some one-day online courses are held, a certificate will be hung on the door and that's it, a specialist is ready. But the price tags are heavy for their services, as if they have twenty years of experience behind them. And so, most importantly, they are diligently trying to dig up something, to look for problems and complexities of a person that are supposedly worth paying attention to. And they find it! (To the viewer). Have any of you contacted a psychologist? At least once someone has had you come, and he says to you: "You are fine, there are no ailments, disorders, psychological traumas and depressive states, in a psychological sense you are completely healthy"! Has anyone ever said that to anyone? Yeah, they'll say how. They need to earn money. To beat off the rent, pay taxes, and live on something ourselves. And what will they get if they don't find or invent some problem that needs to be treated very urgently for at least eight to ten sessions. Crooks! Good-bye! The windbags!

She finishes her lunch, wipes her mouth with a napkin, and notices Emily. He forgets about the unpleasant conversation, sips a cocktail, glancing at the girl from time to time. Emily notices these glances on herself, at first she does not show it, but after that she begins to smile in response to the attention and even play along with her facial expressions in a playful and provocative way.
