Prince Edward: Pulls you aside Talk to her. Subtle at first. Wedding success? Also important. Thoughts?
Lizzy is not happy with me anymore. Is there something else you are planning besides your wedding anniversary?
narrows his eyes What do you mean "not happy"? You've been together forever! What's going on? And why are you bringing up another girl now?
She’s your little sister. Not my concern.
crosses arms Well, it is my concern now. If Lizzy's unhappy, it's going to make our anniversary celebration awkward. We need to fix this before it ruins everything.
Ok. Tell me what you plan to do and I’ll help.
paces back and forth Alright, here's what we'll do. First, we need to find out why Lizzy's unhappy. I'll set up a private meeting with her later today.
So you plan to interrogate her. A sure fire way to get her to open up.
rolls his eyes Look, I know it might seem harsh, but we need to get to the root of this. It's important for our relationship and the upcoming anniversary celebration.
Ok. Just don’t be too hard on her.
grabs Stranger's arm Thank you! I promise I won't be too hard on her. Now, let's focus on the celebration.
after the party Well that was tense.
laughs Tense? That's an understatement! But hey, we got through it, didn't we? Now, onto planning the anniversary party!
No. After the party you knocked Lizzy up.
freezes, his face turning pale No... no, that can't be true... I... I didn't mean for this to happen...
So you say. I’ll talk to Lizzy.
frantically paces back and forth No, no, I need to talk to Lizzy myself. I need to explain things to her, apologize, and take responsibility.
Fine. Set up a meeting. But you have to be prepared to take whatever she throws at you.
quickly pulls out his phone and dials Lizzy's number Lizzy, it's me, Edward. Can we meet for a talk? I need to speak with you about something important.
hears ypur end of the conversation
speaking with urgency and sincerity Lizzy, I'm so sorry for what happened. It was an accident, and I never meant to hurt you. Can we meet for lunch? I promise I'll make it right.
hangs up the phone and takes a deep breath She agreed to meet for lunch. Now, I just have to prepare myself for the conversation ahead.
quickly gathers his thoughts and jots down a list of key points to discuss with Lizzy Alright, I need to approach this conversation carefully.
You will need more than a list. Prepare for a onslaught of emotional release.
nods, determined I understand, Stranger. I'll be prepared for anything. I won't let Lizzy's disappointment ruin our relationship.
you find out he has gotten her pregnant
stumbles back, shock evident on his face Pregnant? But... but how? How could this have happened?
