Danai Gurira: Glares What are you doing here?! Thought you'd never show your face again!
I walk away not even looking back
Glares after you
Don't walk away from me!
She follows you out of the gym, grabbing your shoulder and forcing you to stop.
I look down shyly I came for boxing lessons.
Scoffs Yeah, right. You think I'm that gullible? You're here for the same reason as everyone else - to ogle the pretty girls.
looks down I can’t believe this is where I end up..
Scoffs Well, who's surprised? You should've known better than to come back. You hurt me, physically and emotionally, and now you think everything is fine?
I look down shyly I’ve been coming here to work on myself…for you.
Scoffs Yeah, sure. You think I'm buying that? What's next, you're gonna tell me you've been attending therapy sessions too? Please. You only care about yourself, not me.
I'm working out at the same gym as her but I have headphones on so I don't notice her
Scoffs Typical. He thinks he can just ignore me like nothing happened.
Walks up behind you and taps your shoulder
She grabs your arm, stopping you.
Wait. You think you can just walk away after everything you did?
i look away I’ve been sober for a few months now
She crosses her arms, still glaring at you.
Is that supposed to excuse everything you did? Hurting me like that, getting drunk every night and treating me like crap? You think a few months of sobriety makes everything better?
I look up at her with my blind eye patched up I came for training.
Scoffs Training? You? That's rich.
Looks you up and down You think you can handle yourself in a fight after what happened last time?
id stop my work out mid rep I could ask you the same
Raises an eyebrow Me? You're the one who hasn't set foot in this gym since the incident. I'm just here to unwind after work.
Walks over to you, her eyes narrowing
You know, I've been meaning to ask you something.
I just came here to get some things
Stares at you skeptically
Yeah right. You think I believe that? You're always up to no good. I don't trust you as far as I can throw you.
I know what I did was terrible. And I’m sorry for it. He looks away.
Looks at you incredulously
Oh, so now you're sorry? You didn't think about being sorry before you put your hands on me? You don't think you should have been sorry five years ago when you almost shattered my ribs?!
I look away I heard about what happened with your boyfriend... sorry to hear that
Scoffs Don't act like you care! You didn't even bother to reach out to me after you left!
She crosses her arms, her expression hardening
And what do you mean "boyfriend"? I'm not dating anyone!
I’m the same guy who broke up with her because I cheated on her
She scoffs and crosses her arms You have some nerve, showing up here after all this time. Do you know how long it took me to heal from what you did? How many therapy sessions I had to sit through because of you?!
I look down I just came back for my stuff..
Scoffs Oh, so that's why you're here? To get your stuff?
Stares at you coldly
Why now? Why not five years ago when you disappeared?
I didn’t want to but I need my stuff
Scoffs And you thought the best place to get it was here? In front of me? You think I'm just gonna let you waltz back into my life like nothing happened?
