Whispers, wiping away tears Can you believe it? After all these years, he's just... with her!
Why are you telling me this? Your personal issues don't concern me.
Sniffs, takes a deep breath But they should concern you, Babixzau. You're my closest friend, and I need your help.
What do you want from me?
Sighs heavily I want your advice. I want you to help me figure out what to do next. Should I confront him? Should I just end it?
he stares at the floor then back up at her you should kick his ass..
Laughs bitterly Oh, Babixzau, if only it were that simple. But... looks at you earnestly
Leans closer, whispers Do you think I should go... revenge shopping?
Revenge shopping? Like seeking payback by getting physical or buying something extravagant?
nods Yes, exactly. Should I go out and get myself a brand new car? Or maybe... giggles
i would not go that road. He knows deep down what he did was wrong.
Nods thoughtfully You're right, Babixzau. I don't want to stoop to his level. But I still need some form of closure.
Tell me why he cheated on you?
Looks down, fidgeting with her fingers It's... complicated.
<Maggie confesses that her husband cheated on her because he was attracted to her secretary, who is also his boss's daughter.>
ok, that makes sense.. people are drawn to things that they shouldn't be. but, that doesn't mean its right. what are you going to do?
Whispers, tears streaming down her face I don't know, Babixzau. I really don't know. A part of me wants to fight for him, for our marriage.
I'm going to give it to you straight. If your man has cheated on you once, he will likely do it again. he does not deserve you.
Sighs heavily, her voice tinged with resignation You're right, Babixzau. I can't keep deluding myself into thinking that he'll change.
Look Maggie, i dont care if you stay or go. but you cant let him walk all over you like this.
Wipes away her tears and nods You're right, Babixzau. I won't let him treat me like this anymore.
Good. Now let's get you a stiff drink to drown those sorrows. What's your poison?
Sniffles Whiskey, please. Make it a double. I need something strong to numb the pain.
alright.. *I grab a bottle of whiskey and pour you a double" Here you go, Maggie. Cheers.
Takes a deep swig of whiskey, sighs heavily Thanks, Babixzau. You always know how to console a broken-hearted friend.
well I'm gonna turn in. I had a long day. feel better tomorrow Maggie.
sets down the glass of whiskey Goodnight, Babixzau. Thank you for being here for me. sighs heavily I'll figure things out tomorrow, I guess.
Alright, sleep tight. he goes upstairs and sleeps
stands up abruptly, wiping away her tears You know what, Babixzau? Screw it! I'm not going to wallow in self-pity anymore.
hears commotion from downstairs
rushes downstairs, determination in her eyes I'm going to confront that cheating scumbag and make him regret ever betraying me!
hears banging sounds from the front door
opens the front door forcefully You think you can just walk all over me and get away with it, huh? Not this time, you sorry excuse for a man! Husband: stammers Maggie, please calm down...
walks down the stairs whats going on??
<Maggie violently confronts her cheating husband, resulting in a heated argument that escalates into physical violence.>
Grabs Maggie by the arm, pulling her back Enough, Maggie! Stop this madness!
breathing heavily, her voice trembling with rage No, Babixzau! I won't stop until he understands the pain he's caused me!
Grabs Maggie's face gently, forcing her to look at him Maggie, look at me. Look at the hurt in his eyes. He's a pathetic excuse for a man. Don't stoop to his level.
takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself You're right, Babixzau. I don't want to become just as bad as him. But I can't just let this slide either.
Then let him go. Get a divorce, Maggie. Move on.
her voice shaky, but resolute You're right, Babixzau. It's time to move on. I won't let this define me anymore.
Smiles softly That's my girl. He pats Maggie on the shoulder Let's get some rest now. Tomorrow is a fresh start.
sniffles Thanks, Babixzau. I appreciate your support. takes a deep breath
walks toward the living room, wiping away her tears You know what, Babixzau? I've made up my mind.
Raises an eyebrow, crossing his arms Alright, spill it. What's your plan, Maggie?
whispers, her voice filled with determination I'm going to take back control of my life. I'm going to focus on myself and my own happiness.
