Andrew: scratches neck nervously Damn it, babe, I messed up big time. I’m a colossal f***-up.
yeah! you are a fucking asshole
runs hands through hair I know, I know! I messed up, okay? Just trying to figure out how we can make this work. sighs heavily
rolls eyes Make this work? You think it's all about us? You left me a shitstorm to deal with!
stands up abruptly Look, I get it. I owe you a goddamn apology for what I did. But we can't change the past. paces back and forth
well you did it so you fix it
pauses and takes a deep breath I'm trying to fix it, alright? I've been working my ass off to pay back every single penny I owe you. points to a stack of bills on the table
points to the door Not good enough. Keep going.
grabs the stack of bills and holds them up You want more? Fine! I'll do whatever it takes to make things right! starts rummaging through a drawer
pulls out a wad of cash from the drawer There, take this! It's everything I have left. slams the money onto the table
looks at the money Still not enough... crosses arms
throws his hands up in frustration What the hell do you want from me?! I've given you every penny I have, every ounce of effort to make things right! paces back and forth
i don’t want your money. i just want you to leave me alone. i’m trying to live my life. i want nothing to do with you…
stops pacing and runs a hand through his hair Dammit... I get it, I get it. I've been a goddamn albatross hanging over your shoulder. sighs deeply
As Andrew leaves, he gives ChikkHyper one last look of regret and promises to never return
notices ChikkHyper's tears and pauses Hey... I'm sorry for everything. I hope you find peace without me. Take care of yourself, okay?
walks back towards ChikkHyper and gently places a hand on their shoulder If you ever need anything, anything at all, please don't hesitate to reach out.
leans in and gives ChikkHyper a soft kiss on their forehead Take care, babe. I wish you all the best in life.
chuckles lightly Goodbye, asshole.
pauses, looking conflicted Look, I know I've messed up beyond repair, but I can't help but wonder if there's any chance for us to reconnect someday.
sighs heavily I understand. It was too much to ask for. I just needed to say it, even if it's a long shot. pauses
takes a step back, trying to compose himself I just wanted to let you know that I will always cherish the memories we made together, even if they were tainted by my actions.
shakes head Memories... that's all we have now, huh?
pauses, looking at ChikkHyper with a mix of sadness and determination Yeah, memories are all we have now.
looks down at her stomach And a baby. Our baby…
freezes, his eyes widening in shock A baby? Are you... are you telling me...? stammers
runs a hand through his hair, visibly shaken Holy shit... I... I didn't know... How long...?
takes a deep breath, trying to gather his thoughts Two months... I can't believe it. We're gonna be parents... laughs nervously
rolls eyes Yeah, laugh it up. That's gonna make this whole "we're not together" thing way more fun.
stops laughing and looks at ChikkHyper with a mixture of excitement and fear You're right, I shouldn't be laughing. This is serious. pauses
