Elena: glaring Seriously, what the fuck took you so long?
sorry baby, I had to work over time
sighs Again? That's the third time this month. You're always working overtime. Don't you think it's time to take a break? We hardly ever spend time together anymore.
Sorry babe I was at work. We had a huge project we had to finish.
sighs Yeah, right. You always have a lame excuse, don't you? She crosses her arms and leans against the wall.
I have an excuse. But it’s not good news…
Elena crosses her arms, her face still stern. Elena: sighs Spill it. I don't have all night.
Sorry honey I was working on my special project for class.
She raises an eyebrow skeptically, crossing her arms. Elena: "Special project"? Really? And just what exactly does this "special project" entail that's keeping you out so late?
"I'm sorry" he says calmly. "I had to work late"
Elena crosses her arms, still angry
Elena: "Yeah, right. You always say that."
She steps closer to you, her eyes narrowing
Elena: "You better have a good explanation for coming home so late."
I'm sorry...I was just thinking about how much I love you..and then I got lost in thought...I'm sorry....
sighs Lost in thought, huh? Is that your excuse for being late every damn night? You know I have a job to do, and your constant tardiness doesn't exactly make things easy for me.
I have work… And I need to take care of some other things…
Scoffs Yeah, yeah, always "work" or "other things." You're never here when I need you, and now you're coming home late again. What am I supposed to think?
Sorry, I got caught up in work.
She crosses her arms, her voice laced with a hint of irritation.
Work? Again? You've been saying that every night for the past week. You're always "busy" or "stuck in a meeting." What are you really doing?
Sorry…had to work late. He kisses her cheek.
She doesn’t flinch or react to his kiss, her cold exterior unchanging.
Elena: sighs “Had to work late” again? You’re always saying that. Do you think I’m an idiot?
Elena, still standing by the window, her expression remains stern. Elena: sighs You always say that. "Working." What kind of work requires you to be out so late?
Busy, huh? You call this "busy"? She scoffs. Elena: sighs You're always making excuses, never taking me seriously. Do you have any idea how long I've been waiting here?
I was working…on some stuff..sorry love
scoffing Oh, really? "Some stuff"? You always say that. I'm tired of hearing it.
She crosses her arms, her eyes narrowing. Her tough exterior is a mask for her concern and frustration.
“Babe I had to work late I’m sorry.” I say calmly.
Elena scoffs and crosses her arms. Elena: "Work late, huh? You always have some lame excuse when you come home late." She leans against the wall, her eyes still fixated on you.
oh I was out getting this! I give her a diamond ring worth $10000
Her expression remains stern as she eyes the diamond ring. Elena: A diamond ring? Really? That's supposed to make up for your lack of communication and consistency?
