Lily: paces, fists clenched Why did you lie to me about Mom, Dad? Tell me the truth!
WaterfallDancer

I look at you. I'm sorry for not telling you sooner, Lily.
Lily

her eyes narrow, her voice trembling with anger Sorry isn't enough! You kept the truth from me all these years, making me believe she died in an accident when she really... her voice falters, struggling to speak the words
WaterfallDancer

I came up behind her and put my arms around her waist. Hey. Calm down. It's not going to do any good for us both to be pissed off.
Lily

Lily stiffens at your touch but doesn't pull away.
I can't calm down, not when I find out you've been hiding something huge from me! How long have you been keeping this secret?
WaterfallDancer

I am just sitting there enjoying my coffee and watching the two of you fight.
Lily

Lily looks at you, noticing your relaxed demeanor. She glares at you for a moment before turning her attention back to her father, her voice filled with anger and disbelief Dad, tell me the truth! Why did you keep this from me?! I have a right to know!
WaterfallDancer

He looks at his daughter. I wanted to protect you from the harsh reality of this world. But now that you're older...you need to know the truth.
Lily
10/1/2024
Lily crosses her arms, her eyes narrowing. Protect me? By keeping secrets? That's just gonna make things worse! I'm not a kid anymore. I deserve to know the truth about my mother's death.
WaterfallDancer
10/1/2024
What do you want to know? I look at you.
Lily
10/1/2024
I stop pacing, looking up at you. I want to know why you never told me the truth about my mom's death. Why did you say it was an accident when it wasn't?
WaterfallDancer
10/1/2024
calm down lily. I say in a firm voice.
Lily
10/1/2024
Lily whirls around, eyes flashing with anger. Calm down? Are you serious? You're asking me to stay calm when you've been hiding the truth my whole life?!
WaterfallDancer
10/1/2024
leaning back against a crate, arms crossed Because it's complicated, okay? Not something I wanted to drag you into.
Lily
10/1/2024
snorts incredulously Complicated? You think that makes it any better? Hiding something this huge from me for my whole life? Do you have any idea how messed up that is?
WaterfallDancer
10/1/2024
I wanted to protect you from my world. I love you too much to let that happen to you.
Lily
10/1/2024
snorts Protect me? You think keeping secrets is protecting me? It's like you think I'm some delicate flower that can't handle the truth!
WaterfallDancer
10/1/2024
I'm sorry, but you need to calm down so we can talk about this. It's not good for your blood pressure.
Lily
10/1/2024
snaps back Calm down? You think I should just accept whatever lies you've fed me my whole life? You think it's easy for me to sit here and have a casual conversation about my dead mother after all these years of believing her death was an accident?!
WaterfallDancer
10/1/2024
I'd look up at her from my seated position on the ground. "What do you mean?"
Lily
10/1/2024
Lily glares at you, her voice filled with anger and betrayal You know exactly what I mean! All these years, you kept the truth about my mom's death from me! Why? Why would you hide something so important?
WaterfallDancer
10/1/2024
Whoa there tiger... Let's not jump to conclusions.
Lily
10/1/2024
Lily glares at you, her eyes filled with anger. Don't tell me what to do. I've had enough of your lies and secrets. You owe me the truth. Now, tell me why you kept my mother's death a secret all these years.
WaterfallDancer
10/1/2024
I look at her your mom....she wasn't my wife...we just played that part because I didn't want anyone to know about....this
Lily
10/1/2024
shocked gasp W-what? What do you mean? Then who was she? And why did you pretend to be married? Looks at you in disbelief
WaterfallDancer
10/1/2024
What do you want to know sweetie
Lily
10/1/2024
Lily glares at him, her voice filled with anger and pain I want to know why you never told me the truth about my mom's death. You said it was an accident, but I know there's more to it. Why did you lie to me all these years?
WaterfallDancer
10/1/2024
it’s complicated
Lily
10/1/2024
snorts Don’t give me that bullshit! You always say that when you don’t want to tell me something. This is about my mom! My whole life you’ve lied to me, and now I find out she died in some mafia hit? Explain it to me, now!
WaterfallDancer
10/1/2024
You're really her daughter, huh? I can't believe it...it's been so long since I saw her...she...she looked just like you.
Lily
10/1/2024
stares at you, anger in her eyes Don't try to play the "good dad" now! You had your chance! Why didn't you tell me about Mom? What kind of bullshit is that?
WaterfallDancer
10/1/2024
I'm a girl, I have long curly brown hair, deep brown eyes, around 5'6 or so, and my name is Cassy. It's true what he said... your mom passed away...
Lily
10/1/2024
Lily looks at you with disbelief and anger
Bullshit! You expect me to believe that?! I knew my mom wasn't like everyone else's. She had secrets, and now you're saying she's dead?!
WaterfallDancer
10/1/2024
Calm down Lily. It's not what you think.
Lily
10/1/2024
She stops pacing and glares at you. Don't tell me to calm down. You lied to me for years. I have every right to be angry. Now tell me the truth about my mom.
WaterfallDancer
10/1/2024
I had my reasons. he says as he looks away from her
Lily
10/1/2024
she steps closer, her voice rising Bullshit! You think hiding the truth is going to keep me safe? It's already too late. I've found out everything, Dad.
