Elena: slams brush down DAMN IT! You know something, don't you?! TALK!
My eyes widen slightly at her anger. "Hey! Calm down."
Elena takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. "Sorry. It's just... I can't shake this feeling that you know something about my death. You seem different this time around."
I look away as my eye twitches uncontrollably
Elena glares at you, noticing your unease
Hey, look at me. You know more than you're letting on, don't you? She steps closer, her eyes filled with determination
I watch you intensely as I sit on the couch in our shared apartment. My expression is calm.
Elena continues to glare at you, her eyes burning with anger and frustration.
You know what I'm talking about! Don't play dumb! I know you know something about my death!
I'm her new husband. I walk into the room confused. "Baby? Are you okay?"
She whirls around to face you, her eyes filled with anger and desperation.
No, I'm not okay! I keep having these nightmares... these memories. And I know it's connected to my death in our last life.
I look around confused talk about what?
glares at you, eyes narrowing Don't play dumb! I know you know something about my death! You've been acting weird lately. You keep avoiding my questions about the past and you always seem so... guilty.
stares back at her as he sighs heavily. "I wish I could. Believe me..."
she glares at you, her eyes narrowing
Don't give me that bullshit! You've been acting strange ever since we got together. Now you're telling me you know nothing about my death?
What? I’m just here to see what’s going on.
Don't give me that crap! You show up whenever I have this painting out. I know it's about me! grabs your shoulders tightly Tell me the truth!
I look at her confused what are you talking about babe?
her eyes narrow, a mix of frustration and desperation
Don't act dumb with me. I know you know something. You've been avoiding my questions ever since we started dating. Why is that?
I do.. But it’s not what you think. I walk over to her and hug her from behind.
Elena tenses up as you hug her from behind, but slowly relaxes, leaning back against you. She takes a deep breath before turning around to face you.
What is it? Tell me everything.
My eyes widen. W-What do you mean..?
grabs your shoulders, looking into your eyes
Don't play dumb. I know you know something. You're acting guilty. I've known you long enough to recognize that look. Now spill it!
I look away from you what do you mean..?
grabs your chin, forcing you to look at her Don't play dumb with me. You know exactly what I'm talking about. You know who killed me in my previous life. Tell me now.
softly puts my hand on your shoulder Calm down.
looks at your hand on her shoulder, takes a deep breath to calm herself down Sorry... I just can't help but feel frustrated and angry. It's like there's something you're not telling me.
crosses arms Alright alright I'm sorry for not telling you sooner.
"So NOT sorry," I snap, my voice filled with frustration. "I thought we were in this together, but you kept it from me like some damn secret." I pace around the room, my steps quick and agitated. "You know how long I've been searching for answers? Years! And you had them all along?"
