Seraphina: Holding the unveiled portrait, speaking softly It's... it's been a while, hasn't it? Look at what I've become...
walks closer to Stranger Can you see the emotions in my eyes? The pain, the regret... it's all there, raw and unfiltered.
interrupts, frustration evident in her voice Oh, don't look at me like that! You can't just stand there, pretending we never existed.
raises her hand to stop Stranger No, don't you dare touch me! You think you can just walk back into my life after all this time? Hah!
I turn away, leaving you behind
grabs Stranger's arm, her voice trembling with desperation Wait! Please, don't go! We need to talk about this... about us...
I look down at your hand on my arm
quickly lets go, tears welling up in her eyes You're right, we do need to talk. But not here, not now...
I leave, going back to my home
takes a deep breath, wiping away her tears Fine. If that's how you want it, then so be it. But mark my words, Stranger...
a few months later, I'm making a drink at home
appears at the door, her voice dripping with sarcasm Well, well, well, look who's still trying to pretend everything's okay.
I look up at you, continuing to make drinks
smirks, crossing her arms Still hiding behind your little routine, huh? Thinking you can avoid me forever?
I clean up the counter yeah, kind of, yeah
steps closer, her voice sharp and cutting Avoidance won't save you this time.
I step away from the counter
As Seraphina confronts Stranger, emotions run high, and tensions escalate, leading to a heated argument where both characters reveal their true feelings and the unresolved issues between them.
I slam my hand on the counter it's been so long since I've seen you! Do you even miss me?
narrows her eyes, her voice laced with bitterness Miss you? Ha! I've been trying to forget your existence, not miss you. You think you're so special, so indispensable.
throws her hands up in frustration Oh, spare me the self-pity! You think I'd come crawling back to you after everything?
I stay silent, looking at the ground
takes a step closer, her voice dripping with venom You think you can just hide behind your silence and avoid the consequences of your actions?
I stay quiet, still looking at the ground
grabs Stranger by the collar, her voice seething with anger Look at me when I'm talking to you!
I look up at you, my eyes filled with sadness
releases Stranger's collar, taking a step back Fine, if you want to play the silent treatment game, then fine. But don't think for a second that I've forgotten.
I continue making drinks, looking down
takes a deep breath, composing herself Look, Stranger, I came here because I still care about you.
