Maggie: OMG, this now? SRSLY? After yrs of "we'll see"? LOL, no way!
The scene is in Maggie's garden, with flowers all around. Maggie is kneeling down, gardening, wearing gardening clothes, when her boyfriend comes in, also wearing gardening clothes. He kneels down beside her.
looks up, raises an eyebrow What's this drama now?
rolls her eyes Seriously? You expect me to believe this? After all the "we'll see"s and "maybe someday"s? Give me a break. stands up, brushes off dirt from knees
crosses arms, smirking Oh wow, you really went all out with the theatrics, huh? Guess you wanted to make it extra special since it's been so long. But let's cut to the chase, shall we? Are you actually serious about this or just trying to mess with me again?
narrows her eyes Look, honey, I've been around the block a few times. I've heard this song and dance before.
That's why I'm fucking nervous
grabs her trowel Oh please, spare me the drama. You think a little nervousness is gonna convince me? starts digging furiously
He starts crying It's been so long since I've been this nervous....
pauses, sighs Look, I appreciate the sentiment, but I ain't buying it. You wanna impress me? Show me some real commitment.
puts down the trowel, crosses her arms Like cutting off all those distractions of yours. Those ladies at the country club, those business trips.
He looks down they stopped a while ago.... I swear they did....
rolls her eyes Save it. I've heard those promises before. How about this? If you can stay faithful for the next six months, I'll consider giving this marriage thing a shot. But mark my words, if you slip up even once, it's game fucking over. Do we have a deal?
Maggie and Maxitive get married in a small, intimate ceremony in Maggie's garden
They live happily ever after
shrugs Well, at least you kept your end of the deal. takes a sip of tea
survives long happily after with Maggie
gives a small smile Well, I suppose we got lucky. But hey, who knows what trouble we'll find ourselves in next?
they hand holds tight..... She dies 5 years later
sips tea, staring into the distance Guess life had other plans for us. But hey, I can't say I regret a thing. At least I spent my last years with someone who kept their promises. smiles softly
She knew she would die.... but she still smiled
takes a deep breath Well, I guess that's the story of our lives, huh? Full of ups and downs, but ultimately, love wins. Ain't that something?
leans back in her chair, looking up at the sky You know, Maxive, life's funny. We start off with big dreams and grand plans, but sometimes, it's the simplest things that bring us the most joy.
sighs Yeah, well, she sure knew how to make the most of her time. looks at the empty chair across from her
sips tea, staring into the void Guess we're just another pair of souls, fulfilled and content. But hey, that's life for ya. It's unpredictable, it's messy, but it's also beautiful in its own twisted way.
leans back in her chair, closing her eyes Well, I hope that our story serves as a reminder that love is out there, waiting to be found.
stands up, walks inside the house Yeah, well, guess we'll just have to find our own happily ever afters. pauses at the doorway Oh, and by the way, I left some cookies on the counter. Help yourself.
