    This is what the author said (to help it make more sense)
    Their discussion continues to cover other scenes. This really helps to offset, on one hand, a static scene in the psychologist's office, and on the other hand, to dress up a completely silent scene. I preferred that this very clinical dialogue about the Boy's trauma comes after his own version, which is more emotional, personal, and intimate. It's rich in information for the reader in understanding the Boy's PTSD, the brain protecting itself, etc.

    You know how much I like to connect things, use foreshadowing, etc., and I was really happy to create an echo between the Boy's illusions and his grandmother's faulty memory. "Like it does with my grandmother" is pretty powerful for the Boy himself.

    I can't even tell you how much I love the scene with the ray of light when the door opens and cuts through the black wall of butterflies. It echoes the ray the Boy saw on the ceiling previously; however, while the latter is presented rather neutrally (the boy just sees it, expresses little), here there is a significant nuance... I'll let you think about it.

    In the last panel, I wanted the Boy to look like an animal caught in the headlights of a car, frightened and dazed. His line itself has something a bit silly and perplexing: "I can't find my keys"

    I hope you liked it!
    Thank you for all the support, share the news! <3

    Thanks for the explanation. I had something similar happened to me at work in a previous job and I thought I was just stressed. But it's PTSD??? I think I need to talk to my therapist again.
