Been ages. We good? Or we done?
Flipatte
5/7/2024
Vincent? Do you ever shut up?
Vincent
5/7/2024
Shut up? Nope. Never. Gotta keep the conversation alive, don't I?
Flipatte
5/7/2024
“Aww, look who finally decided to show up” I mutter under my breath
Vincent
5/7/2024
Aw, touchy-touchy. Can't handle a little banter, huh?
Flipatte
5/7/2024
Why are you even here, Vincent?
Vincent
5/7/2024
Well, maybe I just wanted to see if you still remembered me. Seems like you've moved on pretty well without me.
Flipatte
5/7/2024
“Are you trying to say that you regret what you did?” I ask calmly, putting the baby to sleep
Vincent
5/7/2024
Regret? Nah, not really. Did what I had to do, you know? Family drama and all that shit.
Flipatte
5/7/2024
You left us for no reason! Without saying anything! How could you do that?!
Vincent
5/7/2024
Look, I didn't leave because I wanted to. Things got complicated, alright? I had my reasons, and they weren't entirely my fault.
Flipatte
5/7/2024
No matter what, leaving us wasn’t the right thing to do. I forgive you, but I’ll never forget it.
Vincent
5/7/2024
Yeah, I get it. And honestly, I don't blame you. But being here, seeing you and the baby... it made me realize something.
Flipatte
5/7/2024
Like what?
Vincent
5/7/2024
Like how much I've missed out on. How much I've missed you. Maybe it's time for me to stay a while and make up for lost time. What do you say?
Flipatte
5/7/2024
I… I start tearing up. not from anger, but guilt. Guilt… I… I gently hug him
Vincent
5/7/2024
hesitates for a moment, then returns the hug, holding Flipatte tightly I'm sorry, Flipatte. I never meant to hurt you.
Flipatte
5/7/2024
I’m sorry too… I should’ve understood you… I shouldn’t have called child protection…
Vincent
5/7/2024
No, Flipatte. It was my responsibility to explain things to you. To communicate. I let you down, and I can't change that. But I'm here now, and I want to make things right.
Flipatte
5/7/2024
…I think that would be better.
Vincent
5/7/2024
How about we start by catching up over dinner? My treat. And maybe we can work out some kind of schedule so I can spend more time with the baby. What do you say?
Flipatte
5/7/2024
…Sure. As long as you stick around this time.
Vincent
5/7/2024
Don't worry, Flipatte. I plan on sticking around for good. No more running away. I'm ready to face my demons and make amends. Let's do this together.
Flipatte
5/7/2024
Thank you, Vincent. I gently kiss his cheek
Vincent
5/7/2024
smiles softly I promise, Flipatte. I won't let you down again. Let's create new memories together. Starting now.
Flipatte
5/7/2024
Okay. Now how about we celebrate your return with a cake?
Vincent
5/7/2024
Sounds like a plan. Let's order a cake and celebrate my return properly. It's time to rediscover the joy and happiness we once shared as a family.
Flipatte
5/7/2024
Good. Now tell me, where were you during the past years?
Vincent
5/7/2024
Well, after leaving home, I spent some time traveling and exploring different parts of the world.
Flipatte
5/7/2024
Oh, why’s that?
Vincent
5/7/2024
I needed some time away to clear my head, you know? Life was moving fast, and I felt lost.
Flipatte
5/7/2024
Life is like that. You could’ve talked to me instead of leaving… you could’ve found solace here if you had tried.
Vincent
5/7/2024
You're right, Flipatte. I should have reached out to you instead of running away. I made a mistake, and I regret it.
Flipatte
5/7/2024
We all have regrets in life. I regret not going after you when you left, but then again, I was young and stupid… anyway, how was your trip?
Vincent
5/7/2024
My trip was...eventful, to say the least.
Flipatte
5/7/2024
Eventful…?
Vincent
5/7/2024
pauses, then takes a deep breath It was during one of my stops that I got involved in some shady business.
Flipatte
5/7/2024
Shady business…?
Vincent
5/7/2024
Yeah, I got mixed up with some dangerous people. It was stupid, impulsive, and I regret it more than anything.
Flipatte
5/7/2024
Dangerous people… Vincent, you should’ve been careful… are you hurt?
Vincent
5/7/2024
Physically, I'm alright. But mentally, it took a toll on me. I realized how fragile life can be, how easily things can go wrong.
Flipatte
5/7/2024
So… will you be staying here from now on?
Vincent
5/7/2024
Yes, Flipatte. I want to stay here with you and the baby. I want to make things right and be a part of your lives.
Flipatte
5/7/2024
Even though I might remind you of bad memories?
Vincent
5/7/2024
Bad memories or not, Flipatte, you are family. And family sticks together. I want to create new memories, both good and bad, with you.
