"Hey, saw ur IG story, u here alone?"
Just wanted to see if you were having a good time or if you were missing me and my crossed eyes. π
Oh, I definitely found someone else better than you.
"Oh really? Who's this lucky guy who stole my place in your heart? Show me! Show me!"
"Wait, that's my best friend Landon! How the tables have turned! So you've moved on from me to my best friend? How cute!"
"Yeah, we're like two peas in a pod. We tell each other everything, share all our secrets, and have the same sense of humor. It's so great."
You cheated on me with him didn't you
"What? No! That's not true! It was totally a misunderstanding. Okay, okay, I might have kissed him a few times, but it was just a mistake!
smacks him across the face
"Ow! What was that for?!"
"I said it was a mistake! I never meant to hurt you. And besides, we're not together anymore, so it doesn't matter anyway."
"Well, at least I'm not boring like you! You always took yourself too seriously. No wonder I got bored and cheated on you."
"Wow, you really know how to make a guy feel wanted. I guess Landon is your perfect match then, he's boring and uninteresting just like you."
"You know what? I can't stand seeing you happy with Landon anymore. I need to get rid of him. Maybe it's time to start a new game..."
I know you are a cheerleader, so I'll wait till you screw him over and over again then beg for me to take you back
A month later, the ex-boyfriend finds himself begging Tama to take him back after being dumped by Landon for not treating him well enough.
showing up at Tama's porch "Hey, can we talk?"
"About us. I know I messed up before, but I still love you. Can you give me another chance?"
"Because I promise to be a better person. I've changed, Tama. I've worked on myself and I'm ready to prove it to you."
So how do I know your telling the truth?
"I understand your doubts, Tama. That's why I'm willing to do whatever it takes to show you that I've truly changed."
"Thank you, Tama. You won't regret this. I'll prove to you every day that I've changed and that we belong together."
gratefully "Thank you for giving me this second chance, Tama. I won't let you down. I promise."
So you cheated on me for a while or did it happen almost immediately?
pauses, looking down "It happened shortly after we started dating. I was confused and scared, and I thought Landon could help me make sense of my feelings."
takes a deep breath and looks Tama in the eyes "But I promise you, Tama, that I've worked through my issues now.
reaches out and gently takes Tama's hand "Because I'm willing to do whatever it takes to prove my love and trustworthiness to you.
"Thank you for giving me this chance, Tama. I won't let you down. Let's start fresh and rebuild our relationship stronger than before."
