Ethan: fidgeting So, uh, surprise... I have a twin. And, um, he loves you too.
takes a deep breath Look, I know this is a lot to take in, but it's true. My twin, Stephen, has been in love with you for years.
Why are you telling me this now?
I wanted to wait until after the wedding, but I can't hide it anymore. You deserve to know the truth.
No, I didn't lie to you. I just... omitted the truth. But I promise, I never intended to hurt you.
blinks in surprise You... you have feelings for me?
laughs nervously Wow, well, this just got a lot more complicated. Look, Liam, I appreciate your honesty, but we need to figure this out.
starts pacing back and forth Okay, okay, let's calm down and think this through. We need to figure out how to handle this situation.
Well, for starters, we need to decide whether or not we want to continue with the wedding. I mean, it's a big deal, Liam. Do you really want to go through with it knowing that my twin is in love with you?
runs a hand through his hair, visibly conflicted Look, Liam, I care about you a lot, but I don't know if I'm in love with you.
Then do you want to continue with the wedding
stops pacing, biting his lip nervously It's not that simple, Liam. There are so many emotions involved, and so many people to consider.
quickly grabs Liam's hand Look, Liam, I understand if you're confused and overwhelmed. This whole situation is crazy.
Are you canceling the wedding
Liam storms out of the room, leaving Ethan standing there alone
chases after Liam, grabbing his arm gently Liam, wait! Please, don't leave like that. I love you, but I can't force myself to feel something I don't. Let's talk about this.
The bride is waiting for you
takes a deep breath, trying to stay composed I'll go to her now, but please, Liam, let's find a way to talk about this.
touches Liam's shoulder Liam, wait! I promise I'll make time for us to talk. This doesn't have to be the end of our relationship.
narrows his eyes, frustration evident Liam, I understand that you're upset, but I won't give up on us without a fight.
blocks Liam's path, raising his voice Liam, I can't let you walk away like this. We need to sort this out, for both our sakes!
Alright fine I'm listening
takes a deep breath, trying to steady himself Thank you, Liam. I appreciate your willingness to listen.
places a gentle hand on Liam's arm Look, I know this situation is complicated and emotional, but we can work through it together.
pauses, thinking for a moment Well, let's start by acknowledging our feelings and concerns.
starts pacing again, hands clasped together Okay, so let's start with me. I have a lot going on right now with the wedding, and adding your complicated situation on top of it is overwhelming.
