Lorenzo: sighs, rubbing his temples Can't we work this out?! For Mia's sake?!
I just look at him as he tried to convince me
takes a deep breath, looking directly into RadiantKnight's eyes Look, I get it. You're angry, you have every right to be.
he loves his brother but refuses to divorce him so I'm done fighting him
Look, I get it. Family is important, but you gotta think about what's best for everyone involved. I'm not taking sides here, but maybe it's time to consider compromise.
voice trembling But Lorenzo, your divorce papers are already signed...it's done...I don't want to see my daughter anymore...
slams his hand on the table You think this is about some petty argument?! This is about my daughter, Radiant!
asks 5 dollars and you get no question.
rolls his eyes Look, Radiant, I've told you before, it's not about the money. This isn't just some business deal, it's about our family!
It's too late, brother. The betrayal... it's unforgivable. But we'll still share custody of Mia.
slams fist on the table Dammit, Radiant! She's our flesh and blood, not some prize to be fought over! We owe her better than this!
yes, so I can marry your brother.
Look, I'm not gonna let you ruin my daughter's life. She deserves a father who's present, not some absentee who's only around to sign checks.
Because that isn't fair! You're not telling me anything!
throws hands up in exasperation Oh, I'm sorry, Radiant! I forgot that divorcing me is like a personal vendetta against you.
I just want to divorce Lorenzo because he loves his brother more than me.
Look, I get it. But you're asking me to choose between you and my brother? That's like asking me to pick which arm I want amputated!
Yes, but I love your brother too much...
slams his fist on the table Love isn't enough! We need to think about our daughter's future!
He'd already said that he won't divorce me, even if he loves my brother. "I want to stay together!"
Look, RadiantKnight, I get it. Family is important, but we can't ignore the elephant in the room. You two need to address the issues in your marriage head-on.
Look, I understand that you're angry, but holding grudges won't solve anything. We have a daughter to think about, RadiantKnight. How do you think she'll feel when she sees her parents like this?
shakes head, eyes filled with determination No, Lorenzo. It's time to face reality.
paces back and forth, hands clenching into fists Reality? You call abandoning our family and betraying everything we've built reality?
I just don't want you getting hurt again
paces back and forth Hurt again? I won't let that happen! I'll handle everything, RadiantKnight. Trust me.
1..2..3..4..5..6..7..8..9...I love you
rolls eyes dramatically "I love you" doesn't pay the bills, RadiantKnight. And neither does being the most clueless person on the planet.
No. I won't have you bringing another man into our home! What would your father say?!
rolls his eyes dramatically Oh, so now you're playing the Daddy Card?
