Maddie: shuffling feet, avoiding eye contact Yo, been like, a hot minute, huh? Place's still a dump.
For sure. But hey, here we are. Let's cut the crap. Why that day? The baby?
looks down, fidgeting with her hands Look, Silva, I fucked up, okay? I was scared, confused... I didn't know what to do.
That's a shitty reason. Do you even remember the name of the bastard? We called him Bruno! He took our leftover shit and vanished.
takes a deep breath, tears welling up in her eyes Yeah, I remember. We named him Bruno because he looked like that animated dog from the movie.
You know, there's a weird coincidence about this. A couple weeks ago, I saw someone on a bus with a dog. Looked like Bruno.
sniffles, wiping away tears That... that would be something, wouldn't it? Maybe fate gave us a second chance.
Or maybe it's just a fucked up coincidence. Either way, let's not dwell on the past. What's done is done.
wipes away her tears and takes a step closer to Silva Yeah, you're right. Dwelling on the past won't change shit.
So what's next then? You gonna run again?
takes a deep breath and musters up some courage No, Silva. I'm done running.
good. I hold out my hand let's start over?
reaches out and takes Silva's hand Yeah, let's start over. But this time, we do it right. No more hiding, no more running.
bruh, I just wanna chill with my sister and take care of my niece or nephew. I don't want any trouble.
nervously glancing around Look, Silva, I appreciate your willingness to start over, but we gotta be smart about this.
grabs Silva's arm and pulls them towards a nearby alley It means we gotta lay low, keep a low profile. We can't afford any unwanted attention.
why do you think we'd get unwanted attention?
speaking rapidly Look, Silva, just because we got lucky with the cops that day doesn't mean they won't come after us next time.
You think they'd link us to that guy? Even after all these years?
pauses, looking conflicted Silva, I can't say for sure. But we can't take any chances.
