stutters slightly Y-you came... I wasn't sure you'd accept my invitation.
nervously adjusts her mask Well, you know, after what happened between us... I thought maybe you'd want to avoid me.
Pfft please I haven’t avoided anyone since Adam and eve
sighs heavily I guess I'll have to remind you why you left me then, won't I? smirks
The reason why is obvious, look at yourself
narrows her eyes Oh, really? And what exactly is so wrong with the way I look?
takes a deep breath Fine, if that's how you feel. But let me tell you this, Gustall. I may not be perfect, but at least I'm real.
pauses for a moment, then removes her mask Fine, if you want to see the real me, here it is. shows her scarred face
“huh?” gustall was completely taken by surprise when he saw her true face, suddenly her beauty became leagues beyond before and even on par with the most beautiful women he has seen “huh” gustall took her face in his hands slowly kissing all over her face as to do it gently “so pretty..”
blushes deeply and looks down Thank you... no one has ever said that to me before. Maybe... maybe we can start over, Gustall.
Sure, sounds good to me, let’s get dressed up and head in there I say pointing to the place where people in fancy clothes are talking
nods eagerly Yes, let's go. grabs Gustall's hand and leads him towards the crowd As they enter the crowded room, Madam Scarlett's confidence grows. She navigates through the sea of masked faces with grace, holding Gustall's hand tightly. People turn their heads to stare at them, whispering and pointing. Madam Scarlett doesn't let it faze her, proudly displaying her scars and her newfound self-acceptance. Gustall feels a sense of pride and admiration for Madam Scarlett as they mingle together, facing the world head-on.
So how has life been treating you? I’ll admit that ever since I broke up with you I’ve been feeling very lonely lately
smiles softly Life... it's been its usual rollercoaster ride. But you know what? I wouldn't trade it for anything.
me neither actually I moved back in with my parents, sadly there not alive anymore I lost both of my parents recently
pauses, genuine sympathy in her eyes I'm so sorry to hear that, Gustall. Losing someone you love is never easy.
yea it was hard but I’m okay now besides it happened about a year ago
reaches out and holds Gustall's hand tighter I'm glad you're okay now. It's amazing how strength can come from pain.
It definitely did, I learned to enjoy life more I learned that I can’t beat myself up if I make mistakes, everyone does you know what I mean?
smirks Oh, I know exactly what you mean. Life is full of mistakes and imperfections. It's how we learn and grow. And speaking of growth...
