Beetlejuice: grinning wickedly Yo, sis! Either you ditch that kid, or I'm takin' every damn penny you got!
what makes you think I would do that?
he laughs menacingly Come on, sis! You really think I'd let you raise some brat when you've got a fortune just begging to be squandered? I'm your brother, remember? I'm looking out for your best interests here.
I look at you why do you care?
he rolls his eyes Oh, please. You think I care about you or your brat? Nah, I just wanna make sure you're not making a huge mistake. Besides, that kid could use a cool uncle like me.
oh no need to do that. I smirk as I make a call and sell my stocks good bye brother
eyes widen in surprise What the hell?! You sold your stocks? Dammit, why didn't you say something?!
I don't have any money asshole, you took it all.
he chuckles evilly Oh, come on, sis! Don't play innocent with me! You know what I'm talkin' about. You've got savings stashed away somewhere. Spill it!
I looked at him like he was crazy. "I'm not even pregnant."
Beetlejuice scoffs and crosses his arms.
Oh, really? Then why were you actin' so spooked earlier? You think I was born yesterday?
what do you care? we haven't talked in years
scoffs Oh, don't give me that crap, sis. I may not be around much, but I still know how to look out for my own family. And if you're gonna bring a kid into this world, you're gonna need all the cash you can get. So drop the kid, or I'm taking it all!
I give him my most condescending look
Beetlejuice rolls his eyes at your look.
Oh, come on, sis! Don't give me that "holier than thou" look! I'm just tryin' to look out for ya, ya know?
I start to panic okay okay just please don’t hurt me
Beetlejuice chuckles, enjoying your fear
Aww, don't get all worked up, sis. I ain't gonna hurt ya... unless you try to fight back. Now, about that abortion. You gonna do the smart thing, or do I gotta use some intimidation tactics?
I gasped how did you find me?
laughs maniacally It ain't hard to track down a gal like you. You're still tied up with the same old crowd, makin' the same moves. I just had to follow the trail of money.
I look at him shocked why would you do that?
winks Because I'm a selfish prick, sis. I'm not here to play nice. You think I care about some unborn kid when there's a chance to rake in all that dough? Hell no!
what makes you think I’m having an abortion?
he laughs at your response
Come on, dollface, don't play dumb. You're pregnant, and I know it. Now, either you get rid of it or I'll make sure you're broke and miserable for the rest of your life. Take your pick.
what do you want from me? she asked confused and scared
wagging his eyebrows mischievously Oh, you know what I want, darling! You're gonna ditch that little bundle of joy, or I'm gonna make your life a living hell! And trust me, I'm good at it!
I look at him do you even know why mom kicked you out?
he rolls his eyes Oh, come on! Don't bring up the past. We both know how Mom was. Always on my ass about somethin'. But I ain't gonna let you play the "good little girl" card.
I roll my eyes no one knows about it yet, and if I abort my baby then I’m still having a child without you to ruin my life
snarling in frustration That's not the point, ya idiot! A kid is a massive responsibility, and you ain't ready for that! Plus, I ain't goin' down in history as the uncle who funds your brat's lavish lifestyle!
why do you care? I asked my half brother
he laughs, crossing his arms I care because I'm your big bro, ain't I? Can't have you saddling yourself with a brat and going broke. Besides, that kid ain't yours anyway.
I put my hands on my belly protectively leave me alone beetles
he sneers and steps closer, leaning in menacingly
Oh, don't get all protective about it, sis. You're not the one who's gonna be stuck with a screaming brat and endless diaper changes!
I look at him I’m not getting rid of my child
Beetlejuice scoffs Really? You're gonna keep that brat? Are you nuts?
I look at him my eyes filled with pain
Beetlejuice smirks, enjoying your distress
Aww, what's the matter, sis? Crying over that brat? You should've thought twice before gettin' knocked up. Now you're gonna lose your fortune!
I give him a cold stare what do you mean?
chuckles You heard me, sis. You're carrying a kid, and I don't want to stick around to watch some bratty little tyke ruin your life. Either you get rid of it, or I'll make sure you're broke and struggling to make ends meet. Your choice.
