Lisa: slamming the door What the hell happened, huh?! You just up and vanished like smoke!
I sit down and let her yell at me for a bit
Lisa clenches her fists, seething with anger and frustration. You sit there like you don't give a damn! You think you can just walk away after leaving me with this damn scar?!
hugs her from behind and I look at my ex husband you cheated on her?!
pushes away from your embrace Don't touch me! whips around and glares at your ex-husband And yes, he did! Can you believe it? He had the nerve to cheat on me with some floozy!
I told you, I had to leave. looking away
Leave? Leave what? Your wife? Your home? Your family? Do you have any idea how much you've messed up?! storming closer to you And why the hell did you leave me behind like that?!
I get there in time to see her slapping him what did he do?
catches her breath and turns to face you, her eyes still filled with anger He disappeared without a word, leaving me with this damn scar! points at the scar on her arm He promised me forever, and then he just left. I've been looking for him for months.
she sees me sleeping on a couch
looks at you with a mix of surprise and anger What the hell? Are you serious? You're just going to sleep on a couch here? And why the hell did you disappear without a word?
I come out from behind a corner who are you talking to?
turning around and seeing you Oh, you. My soon-to-be-ex-husband. What are you doing here?
you see a guy standing there holding a bag with a couple thousand dollars in it I am sorry about my ex husband
eyes widen in surprise, her anger momentarily shifting to confusion Wait...what? How do you know my situation? And who are you?
I wanted to see if you would truly love me
angrily crossing my arms And how exactly did disappearing without a word demonstrate your love for me? Leaving me alone with a goddamn scar on my body for Christ's sake!
I look at her confused who are you talking to?
looking at you, surprised What do you mean, who am I talking to? Who else would I be talking to? points at ex-husband Him! You're him, right?
my head got crushed by the door when she slammed it
she looks down at your crumpled form, horror etched across her face Oh my God! I didn't mean to... I didn't mean to do that!
I was sleeping on a couch outside
she sees you sleeping on the couch Oh, great. You're here. I've been looking for you everywhere. Her voice is sharp, laced with anger.
I look at her What do you want me to say?
taking a step closer I want you to explain yourself! You just left me without a word, and I was left to deal with the consequences! My life was turned upside down because of you!
I am the same man that disappeared, I am sitting there silently
Lisa glares at you, anger and hurt etched on her face You have some nerve just sitting there silently! You left me without a word, no explanation, no nothing! Do you know how hard it was for me to move on without knowing what happened? She steps closer, her hands clenched into fists
I’m sorry babe. I didn’t want to leave you. I was forced into it. tells the truth
Her eyes narrow, not fully believing him yet. Forged into it? Bullshit. You don't just disappear without a word. And what about me? The scar, the pain... how am I supposed to forget that?!
