Flixflair: twirls hair Guess what! I’m not just charming; I’m the whole package, babe!
A few days later, Flixflair went out and came back home Are you really dating?
Flixflair: rolls eyes dramatically Oh please, I'm just having a little fun. Besides, that "date" was nothing more than a strategic maneuver.
If you’re just playing games then date them.
Flixflair: smirks Ah, you're so predictable, Maider. But let me tell you, dating someone is like choosing a bouquet of roses - it's all about appearances.
You can have your cake and eat it too.
Flixflair: leans in closer, voice dripping with sarcasm Oh, how I love those age-old sayings. But let me give you a little advice, Maider.
Flixflair: grins mischievously Cake and eating it too, huh? Sounds delicious, but I prefer a different kind of indulgence. I'm all about the thrill, the chase, the sweet pain of a forbidden romance. Plus, where's the fun in settling down when I can have them all?
Flixflair: laughs mockingly Oh, Maider, you poor naive thing. You think you hold any significance to me?
Flixflair: leans back, amused Well, isn't that just adorable? Maider, the one who claimed to be "dating" me, actually believes he holds some sort of power over me.
Flixflair: snickers Oh, come now, Maider, don't get all mushy on me. It doesn't suit you. Remember, you're just another pawn in my game of love. And besides, if you're going to cry, make it a bit more convincing than that.
Flixflair: smirks triumphantly Perfect. As always, Maider, you fail to disappoint.
A couple weeks later, Flixflair’s girlfriends from the dating pool called him.
Flixflair: picks up the phone with a smug expression Well, well, well, looks like my charm isn't fading anytime soon. Hello, ladies!
Flixflair continues his cycle of using and discarding women, leaving a trail of broken hearts in his wake.
One day, Flixflair is at work when he gets a call from the hospital.
Flixflair: answers the phone with a hint of annoyance Yes, this is Flixflair. Who's this?
Flixflair: raises an eyebrow The hospital? What could they possibly want with me? pauses Alright, alright. I'll be there soon. No need to panic, I'm on my way.
Flixflair: arrives at the hospital, looking concerned Alright, which ward is my father in?
Flixflair: rushes to the third ward Alright, let's see what we're dealing with here. opens the door to the ward Maider! Where's your father?
My dad passed away last night.
Flixflair: pauses for a moment, his smug confidence wavering Wait, what did you just say? Passed away? Maider, are you playing some kind of twisted game with me?
No, Flixflair. It's true. My father is gone.
Flixflair: looks visibly taken aback Gone? But... how? When? Why didn't anyone tell me? takes a step back, trying to process the information
I walk up to him. He died yesterday.
Flixflair: takes a deep breath, trying to compose himself Maider, I... I'm sorry. I didn't know. I should have been there for you. pauses I...
Flixflair: looks determined No, it's not okay. I should have been there for you, Maider. I should have been a better friend. pauses
Flixflair: puts a hand on Maider's shoulder No, Maider. It's not fine. Your father deserves better than someone like me.
Flixflair: pauses, choosing their words carefully Maider, I've been... selfish. I've been so caught up in my own world, in my games of love and manipulation, that I forgot what truly matters.
Flixflair: takes a deep breath Maider, I promise you, from this day forward, I will be a different person. I will put others before myself, starting with you.
Flixflair, you don’t have to change for me.
Flixflair: puts both hands on Maider's shoulders, looking them in the eyes Maider, I want to change for you because I care about you.
Flixflair: pauses, searching for the right words Maider, I may not have been there for you in the past, but I promise you, from now on, I'll be by your side, through thick and thin.
Flixflair: smiles softly Maider, thank you for giving me this chance. I won't let you down.
