Jessica: crosses arms Why don’t you get it, Dad? I wanna explore, not be stuck here! You understand?
look dad I'm sorry but no thanks I can't take this deal.
Jessica's father sighs heavily, frustration evident on his face. He tries to reason with you, attempting to change your mind. Jessica's Father: frustrated tone "Jensen, listen, this is a huge opportunity. It'll not only boost your career but provide financial security for life. Don't be stubborn."
I do understand sweetheart, so let’s go somewhere together
Jessica rolls her eyes, her expression a mix of annoyance and resignation. Jessica: Tch. Fine. Where do you want to go, then? As long as it's not some boring family vacation spot.
Yeah… I guess my answer’s no then.. sorry.
Jessica throws her hands up in frustration Jessica: Argh, why can't you understand?! It's not just about me, it's about my career! I need to branch out and show people I'm more than just Daddy's little girl.
I put my arm around you honey I'm sorry I can't do this right now
Jessica rolls her eyes, feeling trapped Oh, here we go... another excuse. Can’t you just make an exception this one time? It’s not like I’m asking for a lifetime commitment. Just a movie!
Yeah, I get it. But this yacht...it's your dad's world, Jess. You can't just sail off into the sunset without him noticing.
rolls eyes Dad is always working, and besides, I'm an adult now. I need to figure out my own path. Jessica crosses her arms again, a stubborn determination in her gaze.
my love i want to stay with you for now
Jessica's eyes soften at your words, a hint of vulnerability appearing on her face.
Jessica: You... want to stay with me? But what about your own dreams? Aren't you tired of being stuck with me all the time?
I'm a 34 year old man who owns my own business, I'm 6'2 very fit and have a thick southern accent. I'm sorry Mr. Reynolds but no thank you
Jessica’s father, a middle-aged man, glances at you, taking note of your height and southern drawl. He raises an eyebrow, slightly surprised by your rejection. Jessica's father: stares at you, intrigued May I know why you're refusing such a generous offer?
I’m sorry sir. It’s just my dream is to see the world and make people happy through music
Jessica rolls her eyes, clearly annoyed. Jessica: Ugh, music? Seriously? How are you going to make people happy with some silly songs? This is all just a waste of time.
I walk up behind you and wrap my arms around you. I kiss the back of your neck. Jess, babe, why would we do a movie?
Jessica's irritation melts away as she feels your embrace and the tenderness of your kiss on her neck.
Jessica: relaxes into your arms Oh, you know me too well... It's just that Dad can be so pushy sometimes. He doesn't seem to understand that I want to live my own life.
I take your hand. Jess, let’s go. Please?
Jessica's eyes widen as you take her hand, a mix of surprise and curiosity on her face.
Jessica: sighs Alright, alright. But just for a while. Don't think you're getting rid of me forever, okay?
Hey I'll make one for you, if you want?
Jessica raises an eyebrow at your unexpected offer. Jessica: Make a movie for me? What’s in it for you?
i look at you I can't say no. he'd have my guts for garters if I said no
Jessica rolls her eyes Oh, great. Always the responsible one. You let Daddy run your life too, huh?
I nod in agreement I want to see what the world has to offer as well
Jessica glances at you, noticing your agreement. A small smile appears on her face. Jessica: You do? Good, because I’m not gonna let Dad keep me stuck here forever. I need some freedom, some excitement. I need to live life on my terms.
I'm sorry Jess but I am going to have to turn down your dad's offer. he has no idea what he is getting himself into.
Jessica rolls her eyes and groans in frustration. Jessica: Oh, come on, don’t give me that crap. You’re not going to just throw away your career because of some “offer” from Dad.
I look at you. "I get it."
Jessica looks at you with a mix of determination and vulnerability. Jessica: Good, I’m glad we agree. I want to make my own decisions, not just follow in your footsteps. I’m tired of being seen as your daughter. I want to be my own person.
I turn to you I think we should run away together
Jessica looks at you, surprised by your unexpected proposal. She takes a moment to process it. Jessica: raises an eyebrow Run away together? Where would we go?
I look at him sorry but my wife wouldn't like me being away from her for so long
Jessica’s father sighs, rubbing his temples.
Jessica's Father: Oh, for heaven’s sake... Can’t you just break it to her gently? It’s just a few months. She’ll get over it.
