how do I fix this audio take? (audio editing advice needed)

Hello I am trying to work on an ASMR video but I'm a bit new to this, as well as voice acting and audio in general, but right now I've hit a bit of a road block. Theres this take I have where I accidentally go bit too high and I've edited it so the overall volume of the whole ASMR script it wouldn't be too loud, but this one particular part is still off. I've tried to use what I can in audacity to fix it but I honestly am lost on what the problem is, I just know it doesn't sound right. if anyone could help me, I would really appreciate it.

Audio

update: I think I found the issue. based on the video u/akiyamaikari recommended, the part has a part of it that clips. I did notice that visually but didn't have a name for it up until now. Now I just need to figure out a way to fix the clip in the audio or just retake the audio. I'll make another update if I find a solution or if i gave up.

2nd Update: I didn't find a way to fix my audio so I am unfortunately am going to have to do a retake. the reason its not going to work is that I used amplify to decrease all my audio in the batch so it wasn't too loud on the listener, and did so before I could apply a fix. Thank you to those who helped in the comments.

How much of a Script should include listener interaction?

This is my first time making a post on reddit and also my first time writing a script. I want to get into making ASMR videos and have been making a basic script. nothing too fancy since its my first time, just a F4A about a barista (speaker) and a shy regular who has a crush on her. the script is basically around their first time talking beyond just the basic "how are you?"

Anyways- I've been having trouble writing it because verbally it is just me talking to the listener. there are cases where I have no clue how the listener would respond. I remember reading that you shouldn't expect what the listener is going to say, but without any idea what to say next I have no idea what to even say. On top of this, I don't know if the pacing is too fast or if I'm revealing too much of my character in a section. so in general I'm a little lost.

if anyone could give me advice or tips in general on how ASMR Script writing works, that would mean a Lot.
