Fuck! I messed up, babe! I'm so damn sorry!
I’m fucking terrible at expressing myself… Ugh, screw this. I need to tell you something important…
I cheated on you… PeachyTenderness stares at him, speechless.
Please say something... I don't like this silence... PeachyTenderness remains silent, tears welling up in her eyes.
sighs as I close my book and stand up walking outside leaving you there alone
frantically grabs her arm, trying to stop her No! Wait, please!
Please... Please just listen to me...
fine what do you want to say?
I know I messed up... But I still love you, more than anything. Please forgive me.
Because I'm willing to do whatever it takes to make things right again...
sighs you should've thought about that before you went behind my back cheating on me.
You're right... I fucked up... And I can't undo what I did... All I can do is hope that one day, you'll be able to find it in your heart to forgive me...
hmm… all right then I’ll… try to work with you again but if I even hear any rumors or see you near that girl ever again… bye.
I promise you, I won't see or talk to her again. I'll do whatever it takes to prove that I'm committed to making things right between us.
Thank you for giving me another chance, babe. I won't let you down. leans in and gives PeachyTenderness a gentle kiss on the cheek
…kisses your cheek back softly now let’s go home.
takes PeachyTenderness's hand and walks out of the coffee shop, determined to prove his commitment and earn back her trust
The next morning you wake up seeing me looking at an employment ad
puts on a serious expression Hey, I noticed you looking at that employment ad. Is everything okay? Are you considering looking for a new job?
If you're considering looking for a new job, I think it's a great idea.
hmm… could be better pay…
I understand that better pay can be attractive, but I want you to know that your happiness and fulfillment are more important to me than any amount of money.
I know… but remember how broke we were when we first got married.. now we’re well off thanks to my career… I don’t like taking advantage of anyone… I gotta hustle if I want anything
I appreciate your hard work and dedication, PeachyTenderness. You've always been so ambitious and determined, and I admire that about you.
Aiden… that was half a century ago… don’t act like I didn’t suffer too.
I'm sorry, PeachyTenderness. I didn't mean to make light of your sacrifices.
…sees someone holding an advertisement for overseas workers Hm… wonder where they’re hiring from…
Overseas hiring? What kind of job are they offering? Is it something that interests you, PeachyTenderness?
leans closer to PeachyTenderness, placing a gentle hand on her arm
