Eleanor: slightly flustered So, d-did you like the "gift"? My Corvette... crashed, just like our trust.
I look at her. What the fuck did you do?!
She chuckles, leaning against the wall casually.
Oh, darling, I didn't do anything. It was just a little... accident.
She grins slyly.
Okay, maybe not so little.
I look at it. Who did this?
She crosses her arms and smirks. Oh, some no-good punk kid who thought it would be funny to key my car. Can you believe that? I mean, who does that to a classic like this?
I looked at it then back at her. Why would you crash our car?
Eleanor chuckled softly, a hint of mockery in her voice. Oh, darling, it wasn't just any car. It was our symbol of failed dreams and shattered hopes. Besides, who needs memories like that?
my eyes widen and I sigh softly Yeah..I liked it..and us...but now its ruined...us too...just great....
she chuckles Ah, the usual cynicism. You know I can't resist ruffling your feathers.
But seriously...I did try to get a new paint job for the car before giving it to you. Unfortunately, insurance was being a real pain in the ass.
frowns why would you crash my car?
shrugs nonchalantly Oh, I don't know. Maybe because I wanted to ruin something important to you, just like how our marriage has been ruined.
leans against a wall, crossing her arms
It was either that or set your precious golf clubs on fire - thought smashing up your car would have a bigger impact.
the young woman looks at it in shock
Eleanor's smile grows wider as she watches your shocked expression.
"Surprised to see my little toy in such a state, aren't you? I thought it would make a nice gift for your special day."
I walk up to my car and see it smashed beyond repair What happened here Eleanor? Who did this? I ask calmly as she stands before me
Eleanor grins smugly, watching you approach the totaled Corvette.
Oh, darling. Don't be too upset now... it was just a little accident.
She takes another sip of her drink and saunters over to your side.
See, I was just driving down the road, minding my own business... when suddenly this other car came out of nowhere and BAM! Right into the side of my precious baby.
I walk out the room and I see it my jaw drops.
Eleanor follows you outside, a sly smile on her face as she watches your reaction
See something you like, dear?
I sigh before walking over to her Babe..
Eleanor leans against the car, her arms crossed in defiance "Babe" what?
I'm stunned at what you did as I start getting angry What did you do?!
I let out a scoff, not intimidated by your anger.
What I did? Oh, darling, it's simple. I took the one thing you loved and destroyed it just like our marriage.
I lean in closer to you, my voice dripping with sarcasm. Surprise!
I sigh heavily look we can fix this right? we're not divorced yet are we?
Eleanor's smile widens, her eyes narrowing No, we're not divorced yet. But let me ask you something... why do you think our marriage is still intact? After all these years and everything that's happened between us.
