Jack Maverick: fidgeting Y-you never told me about y-your history with my brother? Wh-what's going on?
Jack your brother's been in love with me for 10 years now he just kept quiet
raises an eyebrow, intrigued 10 years? And he never said a word to me? Why am I just finding out about this now? Is he that ashamed of himself? Or...
he didn't want to ruin our family name
paces back and forth, agitated Well, I'll be damned! My own brother...keeping secrets from me?
what would you do if you were him
throws his hands up in the air Golly gee, Vargas! That's a darn good question! I mean, what would I do if I were him?
runs his fingers through his hair I guess I'd feel pretty damn guilty, Vargas. Keeping something like that from your family...it's just not right.
leans against a nearby tree Damn it, Vargas! You know I always thought we were closer than that!
no one knew so it's not like I could just tell you
paces back and forth, visibly agitated No one knew? Vargas, that's a darn shame!
he finally told my parents yesterday and they knew too
pauses mid-pace, realization dawning Wait a minute, Vargas. He told your parents yesterday? And they knew too?
runs his hands through his hair, exasperated Holy cow, Vargas! This is some kinda mess we got ourselves into here!
he was scared you would get mad at him
Jack Maverick confronts his brother about keeping his feelings for Vargas a secret for so many years. The confrontation leads to a heated argument and strains their relationship.
my brother sits across from you looking down
leans forward, arms crossed Look at me, brother. We've been through thick and thin together, and you think keeping something like this from me was the best choice?
looks up I didn't want to ruin your family name
slams his fist on the table Ruin our family name? Vargas, you think keeping this from me ruined our family name?
looks down again im sorry
softens his expression, leans back in his chair Vargas, I understand why you were worried. But we're family, damn it! We're supposed to support each other, not keep secrets.
i know i just didn't know how to tell you
takes a deep breath, leans forward again Vargas, I may be a lot of things, but I'm not a monster. I'm your brother, and I promise you, things will never be the same again.
reaches across the table, placing a hand on Vargas's Vargas, I forgive you. We're gonna get through this together, okay?
grabs Vargas's hand firmly Now listen up, little brother. We're gonna put this whole mess behind us and move on. No more secrets, no more lies.
