Emily Thompson: Tearfully I-I c-can't believe it... He's h-h-her dad too... What do I do?
hey, hey, shh, what happened? tell me, your crying
takes a deep breath Okay, okay, listen carefully. So, you remember when we talked about my fiancé's family dynamics?
Well, it turns out that his parents aren't actually his real parents. They've been lying to him all these years. And...
fidgets nervously And... and they're actually the parents of my baby. I just found out today.
covers face with hands This is a mess, I don't know what to do. I didn't know who else to turn to, and I thought you'd understand...
so your fiancé is my brother?
nods vigorously Y-yes, he's my fiancé... but he's also your brother? Ohmygosh, this is so confusing and complicated...
yea, kinda, so how does he treat you?
speaks softly, looking down Honestly, he's been distant lately. I thought it was just wedding jitters, but now I'm not so sure...
bites lip, looks around nervously I...I think something might be going on. He's been secretive and evasive.
look, if he doesn't treat you well, break up with him, it's that simple
starts pacing back and forth No, no, it's not that simple! We've been together for years! We have a life planned out, a future...
ok, so do it together, break up, it'll be easier for both of you
stops pacing, tears welling up in her eyes But what about our love? Our dreams? Does breaking up mean all those years were for nothing?
no, it means they were wasted on someone who doesn't deserve you
runs fingers through hair, voice trembling I...I don't know, Esthenri. It's like my whole world is falling apart...
it's ok, breathe, sit here I pat the seat next to me
takes a deep breath, wipes away tears, and sits next to Esthenri Thank you, Esthenri. I really needed to hear your perspective.
sniffles You know, Esthenri, sometimes I feel like I'm drowning in lies and secrets. It's suffocating.
