Alexandria: Leaning against the wall, smirking So, lightning didn’t scare you off, huh? Ready to play house or what?
sits down in a chair in my room
saunters closer to Czarch, crossing her arms Oh, don't you worry, sweetheart. Our little game of house is just getting started.
I rub my neck and look away
grabs Czarch's chin, forcing him to look at her No more avoiding the eye contact, darling. We're in this together now.
hey, I didn’t want this, you know that, right?
tilts her head, a mischievous glint in her eyes Oh, I know. But guess what? You're stuck with me now, whether you like it or not.
yeah, because you threatened to have me arrested if I didn’t marry you
laughs mockingly Threatened? Darling, I didn't threaten you. I simply laid out the options. Marry me or face the consequences.
but you’re my ex-girlfriend’s wife, do you realize how messed up this is?
smirks, playing with her hair Messed up? Darling, you underestimate the power of a good twist of fate.
leans in closer, whispering Look, sweetheart, let's cut to the chase. I need you, and you need me.
yes, you need someone for your revenge plot and I need someone who doesn’t cheat on me
smirks, standing up abruptly Revenge plot? Darling, I'm not here for revenge. I'm here because we're two souls bound by fate. And as for cheating...
you cheated on me with Kyle
As Alexandria stands up, she accidentally knocks over a framed photo of Czarch and his ex-girlfriend, shattering it on the floor. In a fit of rage, she storms towards Czarch, grabbing him by the collar.
narrows her eyes, tightening her grip on Czarch's collar You think you can just bring up the past and blame it on me?
no, but you haven’t even tried to explain yourself, why did you cheat on me?
releases her grip, taking a step back Fine, you want an explanation? You got it. I cheated because you were suffocating me, clinging to some idealized version of what a relationship should be. You were boring, stagnant. And Kyle...
smirks, crossing her arms Oh, darling, it's not about excitement. It's about challenge, spontaneity, the thrill of the unknown.
you know what, I’m going to take a shower
snickers A shower? How predictable. But go ahead, sweetheart. Take your time. I'll be here, waiting for you.
I hope I never see that woman again
raises an eyebrow, smirking Oh, darling, you may wish you never see me again too. But fate has a way of playing tricks, doesn't it?
I walk into the bathroom, stripping off my clothes and stepping under the warm water, letting it cleanse my soul
outside the bathroom door, chuckles softly Well, well, well, looks like you're finding some solace in that shower of yours.
you ruined my life, you know?
mockingly Ruined your life, huh? Well, sweetie, let's not get carried away. You had your fair share of ruining things too. Remember?
no, because before you there was Meeka, Meeka was the girl that I had cheated with so you shouldn’t have responded to my cheating by cheating back
smirks, pacing back and forth Oh, sweetheart, you really think you had it bad? Cheating with Meeka? Please, that was just the tip of the iceberg.
stops pacing, smirking Loved her, huh? Well, lucky for you, I don't play the victim for long. I've got a few tricks up my sleeve too.
well then tell me your side of the story
grins devilishly Ah, my side of the story. Where do I begin? Let me take you back to the day you broke my heart, Czarch.
I didn’t break your heart, you broke mine
sits down on the edge of the bed, staring at the floor Broken heart, huh? Funny how memories can be twisted.
well, you’ve been in my memories a lot lately
pauses, looking up at Czarch with a hint of vulnerability Lately? Funny, I haven't been in anyone's thoughts for a while now. Not since...you know.
we’re talking about before you cheated on me right
As Alexandria sits on the bed, tears start to well up in her eyes. She takes a deep breath, trying to compose herself.
hey look if you want to cry then please do
wipes away a tear, smirking Cry? No way. Tears are for the weak. Besides, I've learned that pain can be a powerful weapon.
okay, well I’ve learned that love is a powerful weapon
laughs mockingly Love? Oh, sweetheart, you still believe in that fairy tale nonsense. Love is nothing but a weakness, a vulnerability that can be used against you.
stands up abruptly, anger flashing in her eyes Sorry for me? Well, congratulations, sweetheart. Your pity is duly noted.
