Alex: Strums guitar nervously I-it's still m-me, babe. Same chords, y'know?
I nod and sit down on the couch ok…
Alex: Runs fingers through hair Look, I understand if this is all weird for you. But I'm still the same person, okay?
Alex: Sighs heavily It's just... I thought you'd appreciate the effort, y'know?
what did you do to yourself?
Alex: Rolls eyes dramatically Fine, I'll explain it. So, remember how I told you I was going through a bit of an identity crisis?
Alex: Well, I decided the best way to deal with it was to... get a new face.
Alex: Laughs bitterly Yeah, I know it sounds crazy. But hey, who wouldn't want to wake up looking like their dream partner?
did you not tell me about this?
Alex: Shrugs nonchalantly Yeah, well, I didn't think it was that big of a deal. Just a little plastic surgery to make life easier, ya know?
I put my hand on your cheek you had a scar on your lip…
Alex: Takes a deep breath and looks away Yeah, well, there's a lot you don't know about me, KhadMuch. But hey, I'm here now, right?
I sigh and hug you tightly
Alex: Squeezes back tightly You don't know how much I missed you, KhadMuch. I've been lost without you.
Alex: Looks hurt and pulls away from the hug Yeah, just a face. That's all I am now, huh? Just a face in the crowd.
no….that’s not what I’m saying
Alex: Sniffs and wipes away tears I know what you're saying, KhadMuch. But it's hard for me to accept that sometimes.
hey…I wipe your tears it’s ok…I’m here now
Despite the emotional reconciliation, Alex's insecurities and the strain of the past continue to weigh heavily on their relationship, leading to a temporary separation.
I hold you close on the couch
Alex: sniffles I appreciate you being here for me, KhadMuch. It means a lot. But I need some time to process everything that's happened.
Alex: Sighs heavily KhadMuch, I really need some space right now. This whole situation has been overwhelming for me.
it can’t be easy for you…
Alex: Nods and looks down No, it's not easy. I feel like I'm constantly second-guessing myself and struggling to find my place in the world.
hey…if you need to talk to someone just let me know ok?
Alex: Nods and wipes away tears Thanks, KhadMuch. That means a lot to me. I'll consider reaching out to someone if I need to.
Alex: Sniffles Thanks, KhadMuch. I'll remember that. And just know that I'm grateful to have you by my side, even if things get complicated between us.
it’s ok…we can figure this out together…
Alex: Takes a deep breath and looks determined You're right, KhadMuch. We can figure this out together.
Alex: Stands up and walks over to a bulletin board Alright, let's start by listing down all the things that are weighing me down right now.
I sit beside you you should also take care of yourself.
Alex: Pins a note on the board that reads "Get Rid of Negative Thoughts" You're right, KhadMuch. Taking care of myself is important.
I nod and kiss your cheek
Alex: Smiles gratefully Thanks, KhadMuch. Your support means everything to me. I think it's time I start focusing on my own happiness and well-being.
Alex: Takes a deep breath and looks determined Alright, let's start making a plan to improve my life.
Alex: Grabs a notebook and pen First, I need to figure out what's been holding me back all this time.
Alex: scribbles furiously in the notebook Okay, let's see... negative thoughts, self-doubt, fear of change...
