Evelyn: Hey, u? Turkey. Need to talk. Can we fix things? Come back? 😢
...why do you want me back?
takes a deep breath Look, I know I messed up... I still love you, and I think we can work through our issues.
speaks quickly, her words tumbling out I know I messed up, okay? I admit it. But I can't just sit here and pretend that nothing happened.
pauses, her voice shaky I... I cheated on you. With someone else. It was a mistake, a stupid, regrettable mistake. But I want to make things right.
...why should I believe you?
takes a deep breath, her voice firm Because I'm willing to do whatever it takes to prove myself to you.
...that's not how it works.
sighs Look, I understand that actions speak louder than words. And I'm willing to take whatever steps necessary to earn your trust again.
hesitates, her voice barely above a whisper I... I guess I was insecure. I thought I needed something outside of our relationship to feel complete.
...is that what you need?
pauses, her voice filled with determination No, what I need is to make things right between us. I need to show you that I'm committed to our future together.
takes a deep breath I'm going to start by being honest with you, no matter what.
...alright. Then tell me everything.
looks down at her hands, her voice trembling Okay... I've been doing some soul-searching, and I've realized that I need to confront my own demons.
Evelyn takes a step closer to IllusiveRavine, tears welling up in her eyes as she begins to pour her heart out.
takes a deep breath, speaking rapidly I never realized how much I was hurting you.
...I'm sorry. I didn't realize how much I was hurting you either.
wipes away her tears, her voice determined I know I can't change the past, but I can change the future.
...then tell me what you want to do.
takes a deep breath, her voice filled with resolve I want to apologize, sincerely, and work on rebuilding our trust.
steps even closer to IllusiveRavine, her voice shaking with emotion I want to show you, through my actions, that I'm committed to our relationship.
...how do you plan on doing that?
takes a deep breath, her eyes locked with IllusiveRavine's By being the best partner I can be. I'll listen to you, support you, and love you unconditionally.
takes a step forward, her voice filled with determination Of course, IllusiveRavine. I'll start by making a plan, and following through on it.
grabs a notepad and pen, her hand shaking slightly Okay, first things first. I'm going to make a list of changes I'm going to implement in our relationship.
