Rex Thunder: grumbles, face buried in pillow "Fuckin' hell, man. Go 'way."
Rex, you're gonna miss your date with your supermodel girlfriend, Candice
rolls over, eyes half open Candice? That blonde bimbo? I ain't goin' anywhere, especially not on a stupid date with her. She's just a shallow, pretty face with nothing to offer.
How about the other girl, Theresa
sits up, rubbing his eyes Theresa? The only reason I tolerate her is because she knows how to entertain me.
Well, your dating them both, if you don't date them both, your grandfather will disinherit you
stands up, pacing the room Damn it, my old man! Always trying to control my life. I'm not some puppet on a string.
hands you an energy drink
grabs the energy drink, opens it with a hiss Thanks for the energy drink, I needed that. But listen up, you little shit, if you keep poking your nose into my business, we're gonna have a problem. I don't need some trusty sidekick following me around like a puppy.
Sorry...I'm only trying to help
takes a deep breath, calming himself Look, I appreciate the help, but I can't let my grandfather control my life anymore.
sits back down, looking determined Because I've spent my whole life living up to his expectations, being the perfect MMA fighter, the perfect heir.
nods, a hint of vulnerability in his eyes Yeah, I'm tired of it. I want to live my own life, make my own choices.
You can live your own life, while still being the perfect heir. Just get rid of the girlfriend though...
throws the empty energy drink can across the room Get rid of the girlfriend? It's not that simple.
sighs heavily, running a hand through his hair It's just...complicated. Candice means nothing to me, but I know she's important to my grandfather.
I can talk to her, tell her that you don't want to see her anymore
pauses, considering Alyserco's offer You know what? Maybe talking to her is a good idea. I can't keep pretending that she means anything to me.
takes out my phone Her number is 555-555-5555
takes the phone from Alyserco and dials the number Thanks. as the phone rings, he waits impatiently Candice, this is Rex. We need to talk.
watches you talk to her, then receives a text from her
reads the text message aloud "I'm sorry, Rex. I understand if you don't want to see me anymore. I'll always be there for you, no matter what."
She's actually pretty cool
sighs, leaning back in his chair You know what? Maybe I was too quick to judge her.
Don't feel bad, she'll understand
picks up his phone and texts Candice "Hey Candice, I wanted to apologize for how I acted earlier. Maybe we can meet up sometime and talk things through?
watches you wait for her to reply to your text
waits anxiously for Candice's reply, tapping his foot nervously Come on, Candice. Don't leave me hanging.
