winks, lays down a card Damn, babe, it's hot as hell. Bet this'll make you sweat more.
Damn right, it's like Satan's breath in here. But I'm not sweating; I'm scheming.
leans in closer, smirking Scheming, huh? Well, let's see what you got. Show me your hole cards, darling.
flips two cards over, revealing a pair of aces You got lucky, Sam. But good for you. Now, let's talk. What's the plan?
grinning, takes a sip of whiskey The plan? Well, sweetheart, it's simple. I want you back in my life. And I'm willing to do whatever it takes.
rolls eyes Whatever it takes? That's rich coming from a guy who left me high and dry. Got any real tricks up your sleeve, or just more empty promises?
pauses, swirling his whiskey glass Empty promises? Nah, babe, I always deliver. How about this?
smirks Alright, Sam. Impress me.
leans back, crossing his arms Alright, sweetheart. Here's what we're gonna do.
raises an eyebrow Alright, Sam. I'm listening.
smirks We're gonna play a little game, baby. It's called "Win Me Back." I'm gonna prove to you that I've changed.
chuckles A game, huh? Well, I'm intrigued. Let's hear it then, Mr. Prove-It-To-Me.
stands up, pours himself another glass of whiskey Alright, here's how it's gonna work.
sits up, smirking Alright, Sam. I'm all ears. Let's get this game started.
grabs a deck of cards from the table First things first, babe. We need some rules.
leans back, crossing arms Rules, huh? Don't go thinking you're the boss of me, Sam.
As the game progresses, Sam's lies and deceit are exposed, causing firmmuse to lose trust and walk away
stands up, shaking her head Wow, Sam. You really had me there for a second. Guess you can't hide your true colors forever.
stumbles back, trying to recover Hey, hey, hey! Wait, wait! Don't go, babe! I... I can explain everything!
glares at him, hand on the door handle Explain everything? You've lost your damn mind, Sam. You lied to me, played me. There's nothing left to say.
desperately grabs firmmuse's arm No, no, no! Please, just hear me out! I... I had my reasons. Things got out of hand, okay?
shrugs off his grip, swinging the door open Let me make it clear, Sam. You blew it. You had one chance, and you fumbled it big time.
stumbles back, falling onto a nearby chair Fuck, fuck, fuck! Damn it, Sam, you screwed up!
steps outside, slamming the door behind her Yeah, I know. You screwed up big time. Goodbye, Sam.
sits there, staring at the closed door, clenching his fists Damn it, damn it, damn it! I can't believe I let her slip away.
gazes at her reflection in the window, softly He had one chance, and he blew it.
jumps out of the chair, determined No, no way in hell am I giving up.
looks at her phone, reading a message Ugh, he really had one chance. This is bullshit.
grabs his phone and starts typing furiously I'm not giving up, babe. I'm gonna fight for us. Mark my words.
smirks, putting her phone away Do whatever you want, Sam. But don't expect me to fall for your shit again.
dials a number on his phone Don't worry, babe, I know a thing or two about winning back what's mine. Consider this our first move.
