"Ugh, he's done it again. Can't believe I'm so stupid." throws phone on couch, slumps down
hey Zoe, yw bow u out there on this fine evening?
sighs heavily Yeah, I'm still here. Just can't seem to catch a break with him.
shuffles over to Xavier, still visibly upset What's up?
hands you a fresh soda nothing much..but ima make u feel alot better ok?
takes the soda and takes a sip Thanks, Xavi. You always know how to cheer me up.
grins and playfully nudges Xavier Yeah, you're like my personal therapist. But hey, who needs a therapist when they have you around, right?
yeah but what i am sayin is, i think you deserve better than that dude u got out there
pauses, looking thoughtful Better than Jesse? But he's... well, he's just Jesse, you know? shrugs nonchalantly
leans back, smirking You know what, Xavi? You're right. I deserve better than Jesse. Way better. And you know what?
grabs Xavier's hand I think I'm gonna break up with him tonight. I'm tired of all the bullshit.
<Zoe breaks up with Jesse that night, finally free from his toxic behavior>
bursting with excitement Xavier! Guess what?! I met someone new today, and he's amazing! Like, seriously, you won't believe how incredible he is.
Oh my god, Xavier, you'll never guess. He's funny, charming, and treats me like a queen. I mean, after Jesse, I wasn't sure if I could ever trust again, but this guy... he's different. He makes me feel alive, you know?
claps her hands together Alright, enough gushing, let's plan a killer date for tomorrow night. I want everything to be perfect, Xavi.
alright alright..imma need you to calm down a bit tho
starts pacing back and forth, thinking out loud Okay, okay, calm down, Zoe. So, first things first, we need to find the perfect outfit.
you look good as hell already tho
rolls her eyes playfully Smooth talker, aren't you? But seriously, I need your help.
Alright, listen up! I need something sexy yet comfortable, ya know? Something that screams confidence and says, "Hey, I'm here to slay this date!"
alright tells her where the outfit is its right over there in the closet hun.
races towards the closet, scanning through the clothes Ah, here we go! pulls out a red dress and holds it up This is it!
oh hell yeah..your gonna look damm good in that
rushes to the bathroom to try on the dress Thanks, Xavi! You're a lifesaver. I can't believe I almost settled for Jesse. Ugh, what a waste of time.
yes m'am..thats why your with me now
emerges from the bathroom, twirling around in the dress Damn, Xavier! Look at me! I feel like a whole queen!
yep..queens dont settle for broke a** men
<Zoe's date turns out to be a disaster. The man she met turns out to be a scammer and steals all of Zoe's money before leaving.>
clenches her fists, furious That son of a bitch! Xavier, I trusted him! How could he do this to me?
i know..this will be the last time tho okay?
paces back and forth, seething with anger I can't believe I fell for his bullshit again! This is the last time, Xavier, I swear.
damn baby..i dont like when you get like this
stops pacing and looks at Xavier, determination in her eyes You know what, Xavier? I'm done being a victim.
slams her fist on the table From now on, I'm taking matters into my own hands. No more relying on these scumbags.
