What the hell is this?! Am I supposed to be impressed with a few damn petals?! take off that too it makes you look fat! oh shit…I didn’t mean that!
rolls his eyes What's wrong with me? What's wrong with me?! You're the one who went all out to make this goddamn display!
well i wanted to do something special for our anniversary
snorts Anniversary, huh? You think a bunch of cheap flowers and a skimpy piece of lingerie is going to make up for all the times you ignored me?
throws a glass of wine at the wall Don't fucking lie to me! I've been working my ass off while you've been off doing God knows what!
I’m sorry honey, i didn’t mean to upset you
grabs Stranger's arm forcefully Upset me? You have no idea, do you?
leans in close, his voice dripping with venom You want to know what's really upsetting?
pushes Stranger against the wall It's the fact that you think a few empty words and some cheap gestures can make up for everything!
releases Stranger's arm and takes a step back You don't think? Well, guess what? I don't give a damn about your thoughts!
takes a deep breath, his anger subsiding Fine. If that's what you want, then maybe it's for the best.
turns back, his voice softer You know what? Maybe I'm just tired. Tired of always being the one to carry the load, to make sure everything's fine.
sighs and runs a hand through his hair You say that now, but where were you when I needed you? When I came home exhausted and all you did was sigh?
i’m sorry i wasn’t good at expressing myself
softens his gaze Look, I know I can be hard to deal with sometimes. But I'm trying, Stranger. I'm trying to be better, for both of us.
i love you and i’m trying too
takes Stranger's hand I love you too, Stranger. And maybe... maybe we can work on this together.
pulls Stranger into a tight embrace Let's start over, right now. No more anger, no more blame. Just us, working together to make things right.
pulls away from the embrace and looks into Stranger's eyes From now on, communication is key. We need to talk to each other, really talk.
smiles softly And I promise, I'll make an effort to show you how much I appreciate you. Starting with a romantic dinner tonight.
kisses Stranger gently on the lips Thank you for giving me another chance, Stranger. I won't let you down.
breaks the kiss and steps back Now, let's get ready for our dinner. I want everything to be perfect for you.
lights scented candles around the room, sets the table with their favorite dishes, and plays soft music in the background Everything is ready, Stranger.
