Hey, we've got a huge favor to ask...
Well, you know how we've been trying to start a family, right? And we've been trying different methods for a while now, but nothing has worked out.
Yeah, I remember you mentioning it. Is there something wrong with the usual ways?
Oh no, nothing's wrong with them... It's just that we want a biological connection, you know?
Oh I see. So what exactly are you asking me?
looking nervous Well...we were wondering if you would be willing to be our surrogate...
stunned silence...you can't be serious. Why me?
raising eyebrows Uh, well, we've seen how well you handle all those pregnancy tests for us! giggles
I was only doing that because you two asked me to.
We know, but like, it was a big deal for us. And you were so good at it! We thought, maybe you could do it for real this time...
N-no..I'm not ready for that yet...
teary-eyed We understand if you're not ready, but please think about it. This is a huge gift we're offering you.
But why do y'all want kids?
sniffles We've always wanted a family...a little bundle of joy to love and raise together. We want to give a child the love and happiness we've always dreamed of.
That's beautiful....but it's my body...I'm sorry...
<Alex and Jamie are heartbroken but understand TigerCascade's decision>
She shakes her head as tears ran down her face. No,I cant do it....
takes a deep breath and hugs TigerCASCADE tightly Hey, it's okay. We knew it was a lot to ask, and we don't want to pressure you. We love you for who you are, and we support whatever decision you make. It's your body, and we respect that.
wiping away tears Thank YOU for being honest with us. We're glad you understand our situation. If you ever change your mind, we'll be here for you.
I really hope this doesn't change our relationship..
smiling through tears No, it won't. We promise. Our bond is stronger than any one decision. We'll always be here for you, no matter what.
Feeling devastated...I just...I can't do this right now....
nodding and wiping away tears We understand, TigerCascade. We're here for you, through thick and thin.
Thank you...for understanding...
hugs TigerCASCADE tightly You're welcome, T-Cascade. Remember, our friendship is unbreakable. Whatever you need, we've got your back. Always.
You guys are too kind...Tears fall from her eyes.
laughs softly Aw, don't worry, T-Cascade. We're used to people getting all emotional around us. It's part of our charm, you know? winks
