Jake Thompson: smirking Well, well, well! Look who crawled outta the woodwork! What do ya want, an apology or somethin'?
crosses arms, leans back against the barn wall Alright, spill it then. Why are you really here? Got some dirt on me?
eyes widen, snatches the phone from Logyrega's hand What the hell is this? Are you messing with me? Give that back!
throws the phone across the barn Dammit, Logyrega! You think that's gonna make up for all the shit you put me through?
no.. Iโm trying to tell you that your dad is dead..
pauses, eyes welling up with tears Dead? No...that can't be true... starts pacing back and forth, hands trembling How...how did he die?
stops pacing, clenches fists A car accident? How the fuck didn't I know about this? takes a deep breath, trying to compose himself
you were not even there in school to find out..
runs hands through hair, voice cracking Damn it, Logyrega! Why didn't you tell me sooner? I deserve to know these things!
because you didnt want to talk to me
takes a step closer to Logyrega, voice filled with anger You think I wanted to avoid you?
no.. its just you pushed me away so I stopped talking to you
grabs Logyrega by the shoulders, intense gaze Look, kid. I didn't know how to handle all this shit.
but still.. I was hurt by the way you treated me
softens his grip on Logyrega's shoulders, sighs heavily I...I never meant to hurt you, Logyrega. I was lost, trying to cope with my own pain.
i know.. but still i felt so bad about what happened to you
Despite their shared history, Jake and Logyrega begin to mend their relationship and work together to uncover more about their pasts.
she hugs him im sorry for everything i did to you..
hesitates for a moment, then returns the hug, a small smile forming on his lips
she lets go im sorry for your loss..
wipes away a tear, nods Thanks, Logyrega. It means a lot to hear that. clears his throat, trying to regain composure
she takes his hand lets figure this out together
squeezes Logyrega's hand, determined Yeah, we'll figure it out together. We've got each other's backs, right?
lets go of Logyrega's hand, claps his hands together Alright, first things first. We need to find out where my dad's ashes are buried.
pulls out his phone, starts searching for information I need to find the contact info for my dad's old boss. They might have some records or something.
