Well, well, look what the cat dragged in.
Hi yourself. So, what brings you here? Did you finally come crawling back?
with my arms full of baby stuff
raises an eyebrow Is that what you call it these days? Crawling back? Well, I have to admit, you've always had a knack for underestimating me.
leans in closer, smirking Oh really? Just a friendly visit, huh? Well, let's cut the crap, shall we?
softens his tone Look, I know we ended things on bad terms, but seeing you here with...with Madelyn...it brings back a lot of memories.
takes a deep breath Look, I know I messed up. I was a jerk back then, and I regret it.
places a hand on Stranger's shoulder Thank you for saying that. It means a lot to me.
Let’s get to go..the baby is starting to cry.
nods Alright, let's get going. I'll walk you back to your car.
But this way walking to the car
follows Stranger, glancing at Madelyn You know, I've been thinking about her a lot lately. Wondering how she's doing, if she's alright.
She’s good she’s only 2 months old so she’s still waking up a lot
smiles Well, I guess I'll have to be patient then. Maybe someday, I'll get to meet her and see if she inherited my charm.
You never know what she’ll be like in the future
nods thoughtfully You're right, you never know. But one thing's for sure, I'll always be here for Madelyn, no matter what.
Can I tell you something..
pauses, curious Of course, you can tell me anything. What's on your mind?
