Kurt Benson: pacing back and forth Whaaat the fuck, sis? How do ya even process this shit? We supposed to accept it?
sighs and runs his fingers through his hair This whole thing just feels so wrong on so many levels. Like, how could our parents keep something like this a secret for so long? And why would they even arrange this in the first place?
confused what are you talking about Kurt
he stops pacing and looks at you with disbelief Don't play dumb. I overheard your parents talking about how they arranged for us to marry each other. Is that true or not?
looks at him confused what do you mean?
sighs I mean, we're siblings, and we just found out we're gettin' married off to each other. Like, how does that make any sense? It's messed up.
chuckles nervously I mean... it's not like we had a choice, right?
stops pacing and turns to look at you Not like we had a choice? Seriously? You really gonna go with that bullshit? You're tellin' me there ain't no way we could've said no?
looks confused What’s going on? What do you mean by “accept it”?
stops pacing and looks at you Accept that we’re siblings and we got married to two different people without knowing each other’s identities? Are ya serious right now?
looks up at him, tears streaming down her face What's wrong, Kurt?
he runs a hand through his messy hair, looking away Don't give me that look, sis. You know what's wrong. You're marrying some rich prick, and we never even knew about it until today!
looking nervous but determined Kurt, we need to talk... about everything.
Kurt stops pacing and turns to look at you, his expression a mix of confusion and anger.
Talk? About what, exactly? This whole situation? Or do you want to talk about how our parents somehow managed to keep this secret from us for all these years?
looks away from him I-I don’t know… I never wanted any of this!
slams fist on the table I don’t either! I didn’t sign up for any of this bullshit! We’re siblings, goddammit! This ain’t right!
leans against a wall Damn... I never would've guessed something like this would happen. I mean, we're siblings for crying out loud! How could our parents even think of this?
grabs him by the collar You gonna stand there like an idiot or help me figure out what to do next, brother?
his eyes widen as he's grabbed by the collar
Whoa, whoa, whoa, calm down there, sis! I'm not just standing here like an idiot. I'm trying to process this whole situation myself.
takes a deep breath
I mean, it's not every day you find out that your sister is about to marry into your family. It's a lot to take in, you know?
I look away and whisper I'm sorry...
I stop pacing and take a deep breath, trying to keep my emotions in check. "Sorry?" You don't gotta apologize for something that's not your fault. It's our parents' damn decision. I sigh and look at you again. "So, what now? We just go along with this?"
I know it's a lot to take in, but we need to focus on moving forward.
he stops pacing and looks at you, frustration and confusion etched on his face Moving forward? Seriously? How can we just move forward like this? Our parents manipulated us into marrying each other!
