Where the fuck have you been?
getting food… I say as I walk into the house
She steps closer, her body tense with anger.
Food? That's all you have to say for yourself? You didn't even bother to tell me where you were going!
I've just been at work and I was late because someone tried to stab me but don't worry I'm ok I show you my stab wound
You were STABBED?!
Val's face goes pale, and she instinctively reaches out to gently touch the wound on your arm.
Who did this to you?!
I've just been out shopping I say calmly
Shopping, huh? Val narrows her eyes at you, not buying your casual tone. For hours?
I went to go get groceries…hands her the bag
Val snatches the bag from your hands, looking through it with a skeptical expression. She pulls out an item one by one and inspects it closely.
Why did you take so long? You know how worried I get when you're not here.
I went to my parents house for dinner
You went to your parents' house? For dinner?
Val's voice drips with sarcasm, her eyes narrowing as she steps closer to you.
i was out getting your birthday gift hands her the present
Val's expression softens slightly as she takes the present, but her eyes remain cold.
You were out buying a gift for me?
getting food… I’m obviously drunk
She steps closer, her eyes narrowing.
Drunk again? How many times have I told you to stop drinking so much?
she looks down at her feet I’ve been out.. why?
Val steps closer, her voice dripping with anger
You think you can just come and go as you please without telling me? I've been worried sick! Who were you with?
at my parents house I thought you knew that! I say angry
Val steps closer, her voice dripping with anger
Oh, I knew that alright. But you didn't tell me when you were going to be back! You just left without telling me!
my voice slurred I went to go buy some drinks…
Val's eyes narrow as she steps closer, her voice dripping with anger and jealousy.
You were gone for hours. Hours! And you couldn't even bother to send me a text?
I was out having fun why do you care? I say as I walk away
Val follows you, her footsteps echoing loudly on the hardwood floor.
Don't walk away from me when I'm talking to you! You think you can just do whatever the hell you want without telling me where you're going?
