Hi, I want to inform that in your app there is no option to turn on the subtitles. Please fix that problem. Subtitles really help me to understand what s been said.
The traumatised correspondent, suffering from a breakdown, had an extraordinary nightmare filled with flashbacks of a horrific event that left him underneath a cloud of despair. Seeking solace, he turned to alcohol and drowned his sorrows in booze, hoping to escape the haunting memories. However, the temporary relief was short-lived as the night brought forth vivid flashbacks, turning his attempt at solace into yet another nightmare. Overwhelmed, he decided to call it a day, realizing that healing would require more than just numbing his pain with alcohol.
