Where have you been all this time? With your little friends again, I presume?
I went out for some fresh air and a bit of peace and quiet. Is that a crime now?
Peace and quiet? Please, spare me your lies. I know what you were really doing out there.
Do you now? And what would that be, Ethan? Enlighten me.
Don't play dumb with me, TigerCascade. I saw you flirting with that guy at the coffee shop. Is that what you call 'getting some fresh air'?
Flirting? That's a bit harsh, don't you think? We were just chatting. Nothing more.
Chatting, huh? Well, let me tell you something, sweetheart. You don't just "chat" with other guys when you're in a relationship.
Maybe I don’t realize that, Ethan. I mean, after all, you never really mentioned anything about it before.
Oh, so now it's my fault? Typical. You always find a way to twist things around, don't you?
No, Ethan, I'm not twisting anything. I'm just saying that we never had any ground rules or expectations.
Ground rules? Expectations? Who needs those? I thought we had an understanding, TigerCascade. But clearly, I was wrong.
What do you mean by 'an understanding', Ethan? Are you saying there's more to this than I know?
smirks Oh, there's definitely more to this, my dear. But I suppose I can't expect you to understand. After all, you're just a simple girl.
A simple girl? I find that hard to believe, Ethan. Are you trying to hurt me?
Hurt you? Oh, sweetheart, hurting you is the last thing on my mind. approaches TigerCascade, his eyes filled with malice
I step back from him, fear in my eyes.
grabs TigerCascade's arm tightly, his grip tightening You think you can just walk away from me? Think again, princess.
looks away, swallowing hard Ethan, please... let go.
leans in close, his voice dripping with venom You know, TigerCascade, I've been patient with you. But your disobedience has reached its limit.
voice trembling Ethan, I... I didn't mean to upset you. Please... I'll do anything you ask.
releases TigerCascade's arm and smirks Anything, huh? Well, that remains to be seen. But for now, I think it's time we have a little chat.
nods fearfully Okay, Ethan... let's talk.
takes out a folder from his bag and places it on the table This folder contains evidence of your little escapades, TigerCascade.
