The following days were a whirlwind of appointments and phone calls, as Harry worked tirelessly to find the right therapist for David. His determination to help his son's "best friend" was unwavering, and Exer could see the genuine care and concern in Harry's every action.

Finally, the day came when everything fell into place. Harry had found a therapist specialising in eating disorders, a warm and empathetic soul who welcomed David with open arms. Exer accompanied David to his first therapy session, a silent pillar of support by his side.

As David took the brave step into the therapist's office, a mix of apprehension and hope painted his features. Exer squeezed his hand reassuringly and said, "You've got this, David. I believe in you."

Throughout the therapy session, Exer waited outside, his heart heavy with worry yet bursting with pride for his friend's resilience. When David emerged, his eyes held a glimmer of newfound hope, and a weight lifted off his shoulders, even if just a little.

Together, they navigated through the darkness, leaning on each other for strength and understanding. Exer became David's rock, guiding him towards self-care and healing. They sought professional help and embarked on a journey of recovery and growth, hand in hand.

As time passed, Exer witnessed a gradual transformation in David. His smile returned, brighter than ever, and his appetite slowly rekindled.
