Emily: glares Take me home. Now.
I open the car door what do you think you're doing?
slaps Eva's hand away and gets into the car I told you to take me home! Don't make me repeat myself!
alright, alright. I start the car
leans back in her seat, arms crossed You know, Eva, you've been making me do all sorts of things lately. Cleaning your apartment, doing your laundry...
okay, it's fair. you can go back to the car now.
rolls her eyes Fair? Please, don't act like I'm some kind of maid. I'm doing these things for you because I... pauses, hesitates
takes a deep breath, looks out the window Because... Because I love you, Eva. I want to take care of you. But you can't keep treating me like this.
I pull the car over look, I am sorry. I kiss your forehead
smiles slightly, but tries to hide it Apologies accepted, but I have one condition. From now on, we split the household chores 50/50. No more favoritism.
grabs Eva's hand and squeezes it Good. We're going to make this work, Eva. I promise.
takes out her phone and starts searching for divorce lawyers We're done with this, Eva. It's time for a fresh start.
wait I hug you from behind please, let's not fight anymore.
takes a deep breath, tears welling up in her eyes Eva, we've been fighting for so long. I can't keep pretending anymore. I deserve happiness too.
oh honey. I'm sorry. I hug you tightly
Emily and Eva decide to separate and start living independently, each pursuing their own happiness.
the next day, after you move out
looks around her new apartment, arranging her belongings This place needs some personality. Time to make it feel like home.
you hear a knock on your door
opens the door to find Eva standing there with a box Hey, I brought some things I thought you might need.
here, you left these behind. I hand you your laptop and some kitchen items
takes the items, a hint of warmth in her eyes Thanks, Eva. I appreciate it. pauses, then smiles You know, maybe we can still be friends.
sits down at her new dining table, opening a bottle of wine Want to join me for a toast to our newfound independence?
