smirks at her ex Well, here we are. You ready?
pauses for a moment, staring at her ex You know, it's been a while since we've been in this house together. It feels... familiar.
watching Palmer Yeah, it does. Strange how time flies, huh?
turns to face her ex, her eyes filled with defiance But things have changed, haven't they? We've moved on.
steps closer to her ex, her voice dripping with sarcasm Oh, I'm sure you've moved on. Found someone new to play house with, right?
narrows her eyes and clenches her fists, anger boiling within her Well, lucky for you, I'm feeling generous today.
grabs her ex by the collar, pulling him closer I want you to listen very carefully.
leans in close, her voice low and dangerous Stay away from her. Do you understand?
releases her ex and steps back, a smirk playing on her lips Good. Because if I ever catch you near her again, I can't promise I'll be so forgiving.
crosses her arms, her gaze hardening Now, show me that you mean it. Prove to me that you've changed.
narrows her eyes and smirks I mean, if you really want to prove that you've changed, then start by making amends. Show me that you're truly sorry for everything you've done. Do something for me, something that will show me that you're willing to go the extra mile to make things right.
grins mischievously Oh, I like your enthusiasm. Here's what I want you to do. I want you to go out and retrieve something for me. Something precious, something that holds sentimental value. It's a little game, really.
smirks and points towards an old photo album hidden on a high shelf It's up there. Get it for me.
Alright, I'll get it for you. Where do you want me to put it?
smirks and leans against the wall, crossing her arms Put it right here, on the table. I want to see it up close, reminisce a little.
Gets the photo album and places it on the table There you go, Palmer.
opens the photo album and starts flipping through the pages, a nostalgic smile on her face Ah, memories...
Watches Palmer flip through the photo album Do you remember that trip we took to the beach? That was before everything went to shit.
stops flipping through the photo album and looks at her ex, a mix of sadness and anger in her eyes Yes, I remember.
How could anyone forget? It was the last time we were actually happy.
puts a hand on her ex's arm Yeah, it was...a fleeting moment of happiness. But you know what? I don't want to dwell on the past. I want to create new memories, better ones. And I'm willing to give you a chance to prove that you can be a part of that future.
Hugs Palmer tightly Thank you. I won't let you down, I promise.
gently pulls away from the hug and looks into her ex's eyes Good. Because this future, it's not just about us. It's about us and her.
Nods She means everything to me, Palmer. I'll do whatever it takes to make things right.
smiles softly I believe you. And I believe she will too. But remember, this is a fresh start. No more secrets, no more lies. We all need to trust each other. Can you do that for me?
Stands up straight, looking determined Absolutely. I'm ready to change, for her and for us.
stands up and walks towards her ex, her expression serious Alright then. Actions speak louder than words. Show me that you're committed to this change. I want you to do something concrete, something tangible. Something that will prove to me and to her that you're serious about making things right.
Glances at the photo album Anything specific in mind? Or should I surprise you?
smirks mischievously and tilts her head Surprise me. Show me what you're capable of. Make it memorable.
Grinning Challenge accepted. Just give me a moment to think.
leans against the wall, arms crossed, watching her ex intently Take your time. I'm not expecting anything grand, just something genuine.
