Sophia: steps closer, eyes pleading Please! Understand! 😢 It wasn't like that!
looks her straight in the eyes tell me how did it feel when you two were together
takes a deep breath, eyes glazing over with emotion It felt like... like the world was falling apart. But not just because of the accident...
I wait for her to continue
pauses, voice trembling It felt like everything I had worked for, everything I believed in, was crumbling right before my eyes.
no need to go into details… I understand what you mean
nervously fidgets with her hands But I couldn't let him give up on his dreams just because of me. So, I made a decision...
takes a step back, eyes determined I decided to leave. To set him free so he could pursue his own happiness.
that must’ve been hard as hell
takes a deep breath, tears welling up in her eyes Yes, it was. But I had to do what was best for him. Even if it meant breaking my own heart.
he’s a lucky man… to have a friend like you
wipes away her tears, straightening her posture Thank you... for understanding. It means more to me than you'll ever know.
looks her over still remember the night you crashed into that tree?
nods Yeah, that night... It was like everything went into slow motion. The car, the impact, the darkness... But I survived, didn't I?
yeah… and I heard you made sure the guy got the care he needed
takes a step closer to JiggyGrim, voice filled with determination Yes, I did.
leans in closer, voice filled with conviction I didn't just want to be a friend to someone in need.
you were more than that… you were/are a sister to him
smiles warmly, wiping away her tears Thank you, JiggyGrim. That means the world to me.
looks her over you doing okay now?
stands tall, with newfound confidence Yeah, I'm doing okay now. I've been working hard on myself, healing and growing.
good to hear… you know… he still thinks the world of you
grabs JiggyGrim's hand, eyes sparkling with determination And I'm going to make sure he knows just how much I care. I'm not going anywhere, JiggyGrim.
