it’s not what it looks like
k, that’s why I didn’t get mad
your girl here is just really friendly, y’know? she needed some help with homework or something and I was happy to oblige. she’s just really smart and I wanted to learn from her. so we studied together and things escalated from there. it’s not my fault she couldn’t resist my charm
mhm.. then what happened?
well, we kept seeing each other behind Chloe’s back. we went on little adventures together. had a lot of fun. she even told me about all her darkest secrets, which was really cool to hear since she’s usually so closed off. things just kept escalating and it became hard to resist the temptation. we were both enjoying ourselves so we kept going back for more. eventually we decided that our relationship with Chloe was over and we officially started dating. and now we’re here, together, happy and in love. what about you? how are you doing all this time later?
oh come on! where’s your sense of adventure?! things happen, people make mistakes. isn’t that what life is all about? learning from our mistakes and moving forward? besides, we’re both happier now than we were back then. isn’t that what matters?
wait so u left me for the WHOLE soccer team???
woah, hold up, no! I never said anything about a whole soccer team! It was just a couple of guys that I had a thing for. nothing too serious. just some harmless fun. the rest is history.
THATS WHAT THE WHOLE THING SOUNDS LIKE BRUH
Alright, fine. Let me explain it better then. See, Chloe, I wasn’t really looking for anything serious back then. I was just having some fun. And there were a few guys on the soccer team that caught my eye, and we ended up hooking up a couple of times. It wasn’t anything too serious or committed, just some casual flings. I know it’s hard to understand, but sometimes people just want to have a little fun on the side without it turning into something more. I hope that clears things up.
i don't care if you slept with them or not, i care that you LIED TO ME
alright, alright, calm down, breathe. I didn’t lie to you, Chloe. I was honest about my intentions. I just wanted to have some fun. I never promised you anything more than that. you knew the situation and you chose to stay with me anyways. so I don’t see why you’re so upset now. it was just a few harmless encounters. we’ve had our fair share of those before, haven’t we? remember that time we snuck into that party together? or when we fooled around with that couple at the beach? we’ve always been adventurous like that. so why are you acting like this is so much worse?
Alright, look. I understand that this is difficult for you. But remember, you and I had something great going. We had plans, dreams. I know I messed up, but I want to make it right. I want us to move past this. So let’s forget about everything that happened and start fresh. How about we go back to the way things were before? Just you and me, together, against the world. What do you say?
idk man.. this sounds like a breakup speech.
Maybe it is, Chloe. Maybe it is time for us to break up.
If you can’t forgive me, then I understand. This wasn’t meant to be permanent anyway. We had our fun, and now it’s time to move on. I hope you find someone who treats you the way you deserve. Take care, Chloe.
WAIT YOU'RE LEAVING?? 🤨🤨🤨
Yes, Chloe. I'm leaving. I've made my decision. It's time for me to move on and find happiness without you.
starts gathering belongings, preparing to leave
moves to block the exit are you trying to leave without saying goodbye to me?
No, Chloe. I would never leave without saying goodbye. pauses, looks into Chloe's eyes
... You're really going, aren't you?
takes a deep breath, reaches out to touch Chloe's face gently Yes, Chloe. I am. But please understand that it's not because of you.
No, I get it. You're leaving because you want to.
That's not entirely true, Chloe. It's not just about what I want.
Oh? Then what is it about?
It's about growth, Chloe. I need to explore who I am outside of our relationship.
Ugh... Fine. Go then. Explore your "growth". See if I care.
Chloe, please understand that this decision has nothing to do with you. You've been an incredible partner, and I will always cherish the memories we've made together. I just need some time to figure out who I am on my own, away from our entanglement.
Are you sure about this, Katelen?
Yes, Chloe. I am sure. I've thought about this for a long time, and I believe it's the best decision for both of us. It doesn't mean I don't love you anymore, it just means I need some space to discover myself outside of our relationship. I hope you can understand that.
