Evan: humming a Spanish tune "Dad wasn’t just jailed, you know. He had secrets, Mom. Big ones!"
How does it feel? Being in the midst of all these?
Ugh, what's with all these people? Can't they see I'm trying to code here? rolls his eyes dramatically
leans back in his chair, crossing his arms Well, sorry if I can't control myself sometimes. It's just that...
lets out a heavy sigh It's just that everyone around here seems so clueless. They don't understand the real challenges out there.
pauses, hesitatingly You know, maybe it's time I stop keeping it all to myself. stands up and paces around
Tell me, what’s eating you up?
stops pacing, clenching his fists It's my dad, okay? He's a real piece of work, always getting into trouble.
runs his fingers through his hair, frustrated It's not just family drama! It's...it's everything! The constant pressure, the expectations, the guilt!
You’ve gotta breathe, man.
takes a deep breath, trying to calm down Yeah, yeah, I know. I just... voice cracks I just wish things were simpler.
Well, let’s start by fixing dinner. What are we making tonight?
smirks and rolls his eyes Alright, alright. Let's make something special tonight. How about we whip up some spicy chicken fajitas?
Spicy chicken fajitas? Sounds delicious.
As Evan and UnicornGarden cook dinner together, their bond strengthens and they share a moment of understanding and connection.
So, what did you want to tell me before?
pauses, then starts chopping vegetables Well, you see, I've been doing some digging about my dad's past. And let me tell you, it's not pretty.
leans in closer, speaking in a low voice I found out that my dad has been involved in some serious stuff.
shakes his head No, worse than that. He's been involved in some underground organizations, doing dirty work for them.
