Emily Thompson: sighs heavily Didn't expect to see you here. Remember our spot?
oh hi emily I wave at her smiling softly yeah I do remember that spot we used to sit together when we were younger… those were some great times we had together…
looks at him with a mixture of nostalgia and pain Yeah, they were... Those days were so innocent and full of hope. We had so much planned, and I thought we'd have forever together.
yeah I do… I look around then back at her so what brings you here?
Emily looks out across the reservoir, her eyes distant and filled with memories.
I come here sometimes to clear my head and reminisce about... well, everything. You know, the good times, the bad times...
She pauses for a moment, collecting her thoughts before turning back to you.
What about you? Why are you here?
Yeah… looks away, taking in the atmosphere What brings you here?
looks around at the surroundings before returning her gaze to you Same as always, I come here to clear my mind. It's been... a difficult week.
Emily glances around at the familiar surroundings before looking back at you I can't believe it's been so long since we were here together. It feels like a lifetime ago. She laughs bitterly
I’m a girl my name Min. You look at me with curiosity since I don’t live in your town yeah..
raises an eyebrow, intrigued by your presence I haven't seen you around town before. Are you new here?
I look up at Emily, I'm shocked Emily? Is that you?
Emily's eyes widen as she recognizes your voice Yes, it's me. What are the chances? She tries to maintain her composure but can't help feeling a mix of emotions
looks at the water Yeah... It's funny how things change, huh?
bitterly Yeah, funny how life works out sometimes. You get your whole life planned out, and then everything goes sideways. sits down on the grass You seem pretty happy these days. Got a family, right?
I look over at her, I’m a man in my mid thirties, with short brown hair and green eyes yeah…do you miss me?
Emily's eyes narrow as she looks at you. Her voice is filled with a mix of pain and anger.
Of course I do, idiot. But not for the reasons you think. I miss what we had before you betrayed me.
I'm a tall man with long black hair and dark eyes. I wear a leather jacket and jeans Yeah... what about it?
Emily gazes out at the reservoir, a mix of sadness and anger in her eyes. You remember why we used to come here?
I'm an attractive man named Adrian, I look like I'm in my mid-twenties yes, what about it?
Emily looks at you with a mix of nostalgia and pain. We used to come here all the time when we were younger. We'd sit on this bench and talk for hours. We even made plans to spend the rest of our lives together. Her voice gets quieter, almost a whisper But look where we are now. You're with someone else, and I'm alone.
yeah, remember when I told you not to get too close to the water because it could kill you if you fell in?
chuckles bitterly Yeah, I remember. You always had this protective streak, didn't you? You were always so worried about me.
I look up from my book not exactly.
a small smile forms on her lips Still the same old sarcastic, huh? I see you've got your nose buried in a book. What are you reading this time?
I nod yeah, my how things have changed
Emily's eyes narrow as she gazes at you Yeah, they sure have. We were supposed to grow old together, remember? Instead, I'm here, alone, while you're living a happy life with someone else. She scoffs, her voice tinged with bitterness
I look around yeah I guess
Emily gazes at the spot where they once sat together, her eyes filled with a mix of sadness and bitterness. It's hard to believe it's been so many years. I never thought I'd come back here after...after everything.
Yeah… I say as I turn around How’s my best friend from middle school?
she scoffs and rolls her eyes You really think calling me “best friend from middle school” will make me forget about how you destroyed our lives? You really think you can act like we’re still friends after what you did?
Yes kisses you gently I’m sorry about everything
I pull away from the kiss, my eyes filled with pain and hurt. Sorry doesn't cut it. You broke my heart, destroyed our future, and left me here, alone. My voice trembles, the words choked with emotion. How can you stand here and say you're sorry when you've moved on with your life and left me behind?
I look at you from across the lake, my eyes softening when I recognize you. Emily…
Emily looks at you with a mix of anger and sadness in her eyes.
Yes, it's me. Can't believe we're still at this same spot after all these years.
She crosses her arms, trying to hide the pain in her voice.
I sit there quietly, staring out over the water
looks at you, noticing your silence You don't have anything to say? No witty remark or sarcastic comment? Just going to stare at the water like a dumb fish?
looks over at you with a soft smile Of course I remember... it's where we made so many memories together. How have you been?
Emily's expression remains cold and detached Don't act like you care about me. You left me for another woman without a second thought. Do you have any idea how much pain you caused me?
