Sophia: Sighs heavily This place... it reeks of broken promises. Like our wedding day, remember?
hey, Sophie... wanna talk about this 'til death do us part' thing?
rolls her eyes Oh, please, Holland. Spare me the sentimental bullshit. We both know that "till death do us part" is just a line we muttered on a whim.
i know, but... what if we meant it?
snorts Yeah, right. You think I haven't thought about that? But here we are, still stuck in this mess.
pauses, her expression softening slightly Look, Holland, I never wanted this marriage to end. But maybe... maybe it was never meant to be in the first place.
what's your next move then?
sighs heavily My next move? Well, I've been working on a new art project lately. It's... it's been keeping me busy.
raises an eyebrow Share? Well, I guess it wouldn't hurt. But don't expect any masterpieces. It's more like a cry for help, honestly. leads Holland to her canvas
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh, no, Holland. This isn't just a blank canvas. It's a representation of our failed marriage. Black paint represents the darkness we've been living in.
grabs a bottle of wine and pours two glasses Here, have some wine. It might help you see things more clearly. takes a sip
As Sophia and Holland drink wine together, they start to open up about their feelings and consider the possibility of reconciliation.
softens her gaze Sorry doesn't change what happened, Holland. But... maybe we can try to fix things. Maybe we can find a way to make this work.
takes a deep breath Alright, let's start by making a list of what went wrong. We need to figure out where we went off track and how we can get back on the right path.
grabs a notepad and pen Alright, let's get started. First, communication. We need to actually listen to each other and respect each other's feelings. No more ignoring our problems or shutting each other down. Can you agree to that, Holland?
scribbles down "Improve Communication" Okay, check. What's next? Trust. We need to rebuild the trust we've lost over the years.
pauses, her eyes searching Holland's face You're right, trust won't be easy to rebuild. But we have to try.
sets the notepad aside Alright, next item on the list. Date nights! Remember those?
oh yeah... we used to have fun on our date nights
smirks Yeah, we did. Remember that time we went to that fancy restaurant and accidentally ordered something spicy?
i cried because of the food...
laughs Oh my god, you were such a baby! But look at that, we were actually happy back then. Maybe we should do more of that.
