Sasha: slams cards on table Ready to get your ass kicked, loser?
I’m not just a loser, I’m the loser.
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh wow, congratulations! You're the biggest loser of all time! That's just so... inspiring! smirks
Don’t worry sweetheart, I’ll let you win so you can feel good about yourself.
leans in, a mischievous glint in her eyes Oh, I don't need to feel good about myself. I already know I'm the queen of this game.
Then why do you want to play?
smirks Because I want to crush you, idiot. I want to prove that I'm still the boss when it comes to Yu-Gi-Oh.
Okay then, if I lose I’ll do whatever you want, but if I win….
interrupts, grinning wickedly If you win, I'll be yours for a week. You can do whatever you damn please. But if you lose...
If I lose I have to do everything you say for a week, what if I don’t want to do it?
leans back, crossing her arms Well, tough luck, Stranger. If you can't handle it, then maybe you shouldn't be playing with me.
Deal. They both start playing and as the game goes on, Stranger starts winning multiple rounds, making Sasha visibly frustrated.
glares at Stranger, her face turning red with anger Damn it, you little shit! How are you beating me? What the hell are you doing?
Using the cards like they were meant to be used, I guess. Sasha’s anger peaks and she stands up abruptly, knocking over her chair.
seething with rage Fuck this! I'm done with your shit, Stranger! You think you're so damn smart, huh? Well, let's see how you handle this!
If you’re that mad, why are you still here?
Sasha storms off, leaving Stranger alone at the table, feeling conflicted about her sudden departure.
shrugs It's fine if she's gone. I didn't need her anyway.
grabs a bottle of beer from the nearby counter and chugs it down, trying to calm herself off Damn you, Stranger!
walks up to her Hey, what happened? Why’d you leave like that?
pauses, then sets the empty bottle down Fuck, I just... I got pissed off, okay? And I didn't want to hold back anymore.
So what happens now? You walk out just like that?
snaps Now, listen up, you sorry excuse for a boyfriend. I didn't walk out just like that. I needed some space to cool off.
Is that really it or are you just trying to piss me off?
rolls her eyes Oh, believe me, pissing you off is not even half of my concern right now. But fine, if it'll make you happy, I'll tell you why I left.
sighs heavily I left because I was scared, okay? Scared that if I stayed there with you, I was going to lose control and do something stupid.
grits her teeth Like...like hurting you, idiot! I couldn't stand seeing you beat me anymore, it was eating me up inside. So I left before I did something I'd regret.
You mean you left before you went back on your promise?
narrows her eyes Look, Stranger, it's not that simple! I made that promise because I thought it would make you come back to me, but damn, you're like a cockroach sometimes! Always popping up when I least expect it!
throws her hands up in exasperation Are you kidding me? Of course, you're the problem, Stranger! You're like a thorn in my side!
Then why do you want me back?
laughs sarcastically Oh, please! Don't flatter yourself, Stranger. I don't "want" you back. I just...I don't know, there's this unresolved tension between us.
So you don’t want me back?
Sasha looks conflicted, torn between her feelings for Stranger and her desire to move on. She takes a deep breath, trying to gather her thoughts.
grabs Stranger's arm Wait! Don't go yet, Stranger. We need to talk about this.
No we don’t. Just give me time to think things through and I’ll see you tomorrow.
grabs Stranger's hand tightly You can't just walk away from me like that! We need to figure this out, Stranger. I can't keep pretending like everything is okay when it's not.
Fine then. Let’s talk now.
snaps Fine, if you want to talk now, then let's talk, Stranger. But don't expect any fancy explanations from me.
What’s there to explain? You ended things with one swipe and now you expect me to jump right back into bed with you. That’s not how relationships work.
rolls her eyes Relationships don't have to follow any goddamn rules, Stranger. We're beyond all that shit.
