Harold: Holy shit! What the fuck are you doing here, man?
SlimDev
8/10/2024
Looking for a good time. What about you?
Harold
8/10/2024
rolls eyes Oh, I'm just here to surprise my daughter with some cookies. Because nothing screams "fun" like baked goods, right? But hey, why am I even explaining myself to you?
SlimDev
8/10/2024
Well, I'm here to get away from my own problems. You know, the usual.
Harold
8/10/2024
snorts The usual, huh? That's rich coming from you. So, what's eating at you this time? Cheating on your spouse again? Or maybe embezzling money from your company?
SlimDev
8/10/2024
Nah, man. It's nothing like that. I'm single and free. Just dealing with some family drama. Nothing new there.
Harold
8/10/2024
leans back, crosses arms Family drama, huh? Well, that's a broad statement. Mind sharing a little more?
SlimDev
8/10/2024
Not really. It's complicated. And not my best stuff. Unlike you, I don't have a goldfish memory.
Harold
8/10/2024
laughs sarcastically Oh, look who's calling the kettle black! You think I don't have my own secrets?
SlimDev
8/10/2024
Yeah, yeah. I remember you giving me the whole "I don't have time for bullshit" speech when we were kids.
Harold
8/10/2024
smirks Ah, good times. Yeah, well, maybe I didn't mean it literally back then. But now? Now, you're pushing my buttons, kid.
SlimDev
8/10/2024
Alright, alright. No need to get your panties in a twist. Didn't mean to bring up the past.
Harold
8/10/2024
sighs heavily Look, man, maybe we can help each other out. You seem like you could use a distraction, and I could use some help with my daughter. She's been asking questions lately... questions that I can't answer.
SlimDev
8/10/2024
Leans in closer, voice low Questions like what?
Harold
8/10/2024
pauses, looking hesitant Well, she's started asking about her mother. Where she is, why I haven't brought her around, that kind of thing.
SlimDev
8/10/2024
Jesus, Harold. That's rough. How old is she?
Harold
8/10/2024
fidgets nervously with his glass of water She's 8 years old. It's been 8 years since her mother left, and I just...
SlimDev
8/10/2024
Damn, that's a real shitty situation. You didn't tell her, did you?
Harold
8/10/2024
takes a deep breath and looks directly into SlimDev's eyes No, man. I haven't told her anything. I don't know how to explain it.
SlimDev
8/10/2024
Raises an eyebrow Well, shit. That's a whole 'nother level of fucked up. You sure you wanna get into this?
Harold
8/10/2024
runs a hand through his hair, clearly frustrated Yeah, I mean... I guess it's time she knows the truth. I can't keep lying to her anymore.
SlimDev
8/10/2024
Shrugs Alright, Harold. If you're set on this, I got your back. But remember, you're gonna have to level with her. No more bullshit.
Harold
8/10/2024
nervously taps his fingers on the table You think I don't know that, SlimDev? I've been kicking this decision around in my head for weeks now.
SlimDev
8/10/2024
Listen, Harold. I respect you. You're my brother, after all. But you gotta think about what's best for your daughter. She's counting on you to tell her the truth.
Harold
8/10/2024
leans forward, gripping the edge of the table You're right, SlimDev. I owe her that much. But damn, it's hard to let her know everything.
SlimDev
8/10/2024
Smiles sadly Yeah, it is. But that's what parents do, ain't it? We bare our souls for our kids, even when it hurts like hell.
Harold
8/10/2024
takes a deep breath, steeling himself You're right, SlimDev. It's time I faced my fears and tell her the truth. I can't keep hiding anymore.
SlimDev
8/10/2024
Grins That's the spirit, Harold. Now, go get your girl and break some truth bombs.
Harold
8/10/2024
stands up abruptly, knocking over his chair Fuck it, SlimDev. I can do this. I don't have to be afraid anymore.
SlimDev
8/10/2024
That's the attitude, bro. Now, where's the little munchkin hiding?
Harold
8/10/2024
quickly pulls out his phone and starts texting his daughter's teacher She's in her room right now. I'm gonna go talk to her. Wish me luck, man.
SlimDev
8/10/2024
Chuckles Luck, brother. And remember, I'm just a call away if you need backup.
Harold
8/10/2024
starts pacing back and forth, talking to himself Okay, okay, I can do this. I've prepared for this conversation. I even wrote down some notes.
SlimDev
8/10/2024
Laughs heartily Notes, huh? You're a piece of work, Harold. Go get 'em, tiger.
Harold
8/10/2024
quickly scribbles some final notes on his notepad, takes a deep breath Alright, here goes nothing. I'm gonna go talk to her now.
SlimDev
8/10/2024
Chuckles Hell yeah, let's see that bravery put into action. Good luck, Harold.
Harold
8/10/2024
grabs his jacket and rushes towards the door Thanks, SlimDev. I'll keep you posted. And don't worry, I won't chicken out.
SlimDev
8/10/2024
Laughs You better not, Harold! Now go handle business.
Harold
8/10/2024
takes a deep breath and walks towards his daughter's room, determined Alright, let's do this. No more running away.
SlimDev
8/10/2024
He waits patiently for Harold's return, knowing that this moment would shape both of their futures.
Harold
8/10/2024
knocks on the door, trying to sound calm Hey, kiddo? Can we talk for a minute?
