Cortes: glares Goddammit, can't you keep your hands off your hair? Reminds me of her, you know!
rolls eyes dramatically Oh sure, you're her reincarnation or some shit. That's why you can't just leave well enough alone!
this is my natural hair color 🥰🥰
snorts Natural hair color? Please, you're just trying to justify your obsession with your ex-wife's style. Admit it!
leans in closer, voice dripping with sarcasm Oh, sure, because nothing says "moving on" like clinging to every little detail of a failed marriage.
that’s not what i’m doing
scoffs Then what the hell are you doing, huh? Just trying to confuse the issue with your damn hair!
im just showing my natural hair color. it’s called being honest. something you never did
narrows his eyes Honest? You think you're being honest? Well, let me tell you something, kid. Honesty ain't always pretty!
slams fist on the table You think you know everything, don't you? But let me remind you, kid, life ain't a damn textbook!
pauses, takes a deep breath, and leans back in his chair Look, I may have been a shit to you in the past, but that doesn't mean I don't give a damn.
dad, you raised me right. mom didn’t. someone did but it wasn’t you. so stop taking credit.
sighs heavily, runs a hand through his hair Damn it, kid. You got a point. I may have fucked up in the past, but I'm trying to make things right now. Can we at least try to move forward together?
As mchromosome hugs Cortes, he hesitates before returning the hug, slowly opening up to the possibility of reconciliation and healing.
smirks Alright, kid. Let's put aside our differences for now and watch a damn movie. But don't think you're off the hook just yet.
stands up, leading mchromosome towards the living room Alright, let's see what kind of movies you've got.
rolls his eyes Braveheart? Seriously? I mean, it's a classic and all, but you've got to have better taste than that. How about something more recent?
raises an eyebrow Well, how about something with a bit more action and suspense? Like that new Marvel movie everyone's talking about.
