Mr. Jameson: Laughs nervously, looking at the skyline Never thought I'd see you here, on this rusty ol' rooftop.
Stands confidently, arms crossed Guess old flames die hard, huh?
Smiles wistfully Yeah, guess so. So, what brings you here, VelvetSage?
I wanted to see you. I miss you
Raises an eyebrow, surprised Miss me? Well, that's a first. But hey, I ain't one to turn away from a chance to reconnect.
Laughs Catch up, huh? Well, let's see how much you've missed me. How about a little game of twenty questions?
no not that. just tell me what happened
Leans back against the railing, crossing his arms Alright, fine. If you want the short version, here it is:
Takes a deep breath I got caught having an affair with a fellow teacher. It was a huge scandal, and it cost me my job.
Raises an eyebrow, a mix of amusement and defiance in his eyes You KNEW it? Well, aren't you just a regular detective, VelvetSage?
your former student's told me everything
Chuckles Ah, those little snitches. Always sticking their noses where they don't belong. So, what's your take on it all, VelvetSage?
Leans in closer, speaking softly Look, VelvetSage, people get bored and lonely.
VelvetSage confronts Mr. Jameson about his infidelity, leading to a heated argument
Raises his hands defensively Hold up, hold up! Cheatin' on you?
Laughs sarcastically Come on, VelvetSage, you know relationships are like roller coasters. Sometimes you gotta try something new to keep things exciting.
angry Exciting? You call betrayal exciting? shoves him
Steps back, raising his hands again Whoa, whoa, hold up there, tiger! Betrayal? I didn't see you calling me out on it back then.
because I never seen you act suspiciously
Rolls his eyes dramatically Oh please, VelvetSage, you were always too busy with your own life to notice anything.
so you're saying that it's my fault
Smirks slyly Well, isn't it the pot calling the kettle black? We both had our issues, VelvetSage.
Steps forward, closing the distance between them Look, VelvetSage, I messed up, okay? I'm sorry. But let's not pretend you're innocent here either.
Puts his hands on VelvetSage's shoulders, looking into her eyes Fine? Is that all you have to say, VelvetSage? Can't we try to work through this?
