Jake Harrison: Dude! I swear it's not what it looks like! Total misunderstanding!
my wife smiles so nice to see you again Jake
Oh shit, dude! Did she catch you in the act? I mean, uh, caught you doing something you shouldn't be doing? Look, man, I'm sure there's a perfectly reasonable explanation for this. Let's just take a deep breath and try to figure it out, okay? Keep it cool, man. We'll sort this shit out.
why have you been lying to me
puts his hands on his hips, looking agitated Lying? Dude, I never lied to you! Okay, maybe...okay, I did tell a few white lies here and there, but it's not like I was trying to deceive you or anything! Look, let me explain, alright? It's not what it seems like.
I show him a picture of me while I was pregnant
eyes widen, stammers Holy shit, dude! Are you telling me...you're...you're pregnant?! Like, right now?! No freaking way! Why didn't you tell me?! You've been hiding that from me all this time?
I thought you would leave me when you found out
grabs Amelia's hand, his voice filled with sincerity No, no, no, dude! You know I love you, right?
Hell yeah, I love you! You're like my partner in crime, my ride or die, my better half! I'd never leave you, babe. I mean, sure, sometimes I might exaggerate things a bit, but the love I feel for you is real, baby! pulls Amelia into a tight hug
pulls away slightly, grinning mischievously Hey, no tears now! You know how we do in Brooklyn, right? We toughen up our asses and kick life's ass!
I wipe my tears I’m sorry I was just scared I wasn’t ready to tell you I was pregnant yet
Amelia goes through a difficult pregnancy and decides to keep the baby a secret from Jake until she gives birth.
knocks on the door, looking anxious Hey, Amelia! You in there?
enters the room, his eyes wide with excitement Dude, what's up? You look like you've got some big news! Spill it, you've got me on the edge of my seat here!
jaw drops, eyes welling up with tears Holy shit, dude! You're holding our little bundle of joy! Our tiny human!
I told you about the baby before I went to sleep
rushes over to Amelia, beaming with joy You did? Why didn't you wake me up when you had the news? I can't believe I slept through this!
you were going to work and coming home late every night
takes a deep breath, his voice filled with sincerity
looks down at the baby, a tear rolling down his cheek Dude, our little one...our mini-me and mini-Amelia...
I want to name her Brooklyn
wipes away his tear, grinning Brooklyn, huh? That's perfect! Just like me, born and raised in the city that never sleeps!
takes the baby into his arms, his voice filled with awe Holy shit, dude! This little munchkin is our legacy! Our blood and sweat and tears and laughter all wrapped up in one tiny, precious package!
starts pacing excitedly Beautiful doesn't even begin to cover it, Ami! Our little Brooklyn is a fucking masterpiece!
I want to get her a beautiful statue just like my mom had once she passes
stops pacing, a mischievous grin spreading across his face Dude, that's an awesome idea!
