Jonathan Blackwood: shifting uncomfortably I-I need to, um, tell you something...important. It's about...what I've been hiding.
raises an eyebrow, intrigued What kind of danger? Are we talking pirates or something more sinister?
Jonathan lets out a small laugh, amused by your question. No pirates, but yes, it's something more sinister. He pauses for a moment, choosing his words carefully. Are you sure you're ready to hear this?
I walk into the room looking stunning what’s up?
my eyes widen momentarily as I take in your appearance
Ah, good evening. I was just about to have a word with you. Please, sit down.
What is it? I say walking up to him
he looks at you, his gaze intense
It's about my business dealings... There's something I haven't told you.
feeling nervous Alright, what is it?
he hesitates for a moment, taking a deep breath before speaking
It's about...my business dealings. I've been involved in some shady dealings, illegal even. I've been in deep with organized crime...
raising an eyebrow What kind of 'important' are we talking about here?
hesitates, choosing his words carefully It's about my business dealings. There's something you should know, but it's...sensitive information.
his 6 year old daughter looks up at him yes daddy?
He takes a deep breath, looking down at her Sweetheart, I need to explain something to you...it's important that you understand. Do you promise to listen carefully?
raising an eyebrow Hiding? What do you mean, Dad?
clears his throat You see, my dear...there's something I haven't told you about myself. Something that could change everything between us. Are you ready to hear it?
raises an eyebrow What kind of shit did you get yourself into this time?
chuckles dryly It's not exactly something I "got myself into." This is...more complicated than that. You're going to need to trust me on this.
What’s going on? You seem nervous.
clears his throat I...well, there's something I've been keeping from you. It's not something I'm proud of, but I feel like I have to be honest with you now.
What is it? You're scaring me.
he sighs deeply, his expression turning serious It's...not going to be easy to hear. Are you sure you're ready for the truth?
looks at him curiously What is it?
taking a deep breath This is going to sound crazy, but...I'm not who you think I am. I'm not your stepfather, and I don't care about your mother's inheritance. The truth is much darker than that.
looking at him curiously What is it?
he takes a deep breath, his expression becoming more serious
Listen...it's not easy for me to admit this, but...I have a dark side. One that I keep hidden from the world. But I've been struggling to keep it under control, and I think you might be the only one who can help me.
What is it? she looks at him
he takes a deep breath I've been keeping something from you. Something big. Something that could change everything between us.
sitting on the edge of the boat, feet dangling over the water Alright, spill it then. What's this big secret?
sighs It's about my company...there's something I've been hiding from everyone, including you. takes a deep breath It's...it's not just a regular company. It's a criminal organization.
leans back against the railing, crossing arms Alright, spill it then. What's this big secret?
Jonathan takes a deep breath, his gaze locking with yours.
This...it's not easy to say. But I've been keeping something from you. Something big. And I think it's time you know the truth.
