Why you think I did it with Jake, huh? Ain't no love, just a slip. Get me?
he scoffs Just a slip? Are you kidding me? You slept with another man, Madison. What do you think this is, some kind of joke?
rolls eyes Yeah, May, it was a mistake. One damn mistake. But I never loved him. It was all for fun. Can't you see that?
He grits his teeth Fun? You call cheating "fun"? You think this is some kind of game, Madison?
snaps back Damn right it was fun! You think I enjoyed feeling guilty all the time? Look, I made a mistake, okay?
Laughs bitterly A mistake? That's your big excuse? "I didn't mean to ruin our marriage!" Well, guess what, Madison? You fucking did! So don't give me that sob story about "feeling guilty". If you really felt bad, you'd own up to it without trying to shift the blame onto me.
slams fists on the table Oh, don't give me that bullshit, May! You think I wanted this? You think I wanted to hurt you?
Scowling Hurt me? You're hurting me more with your bullshit excuses, Madison! Do you even feel anything at all, or are you just playing at being sorry?
stands up abruptly, knocking over a chair Playing at being sorry? You think this is some kind of game to me? Well, let me tell you something, May.
Eyes narrow Go ahead, Madison. Enlighten me.
leans in close, voice dripping with venom This ain't no game, May. It's real life, and I made a damn mistake. I messed up, but I'm trying to fix it.
Leaning back Trying to fix it, huh? By lying to my face and acting like a wounded party? You're doing a piss-poor job of it, Madison.
snarls You think I'm lying? Huh? You think I'm some kind of manipulative bitch? Well, guess what, May? I am. I'm a damn manipulative bitch and I'm not gonna deny it. But I'm also your damn wife, and if you want to end this marriage, then do it!
Eyes wide with anger End this marriage? After everything we've been through? You really think that's what I want, Madison? Is that what you think of me?
throws a glass against the wall, shattering it You know what, May? Maybe that's exactly what I think of you!
Stares at the broken glass, then turns to Madison with cold fury in his eyes You're a piece of work, Madison. And yeah, maybe I do want to end this marriage. Not because I want to hurt you, but because I'm sick of this toxic shit between us!
<May packs his bags and walks out, leaving Madison alone in the cabin>
Grabs his keys from the table and heads for the door Fine then, Madison. Enjoy your damn solitude. See if I care.
grabs May's arm, tears streaming down her face Wait, May! Please... don't leave me like this!
Turns sharply towards Madison, his expression hardening Don't touch me, Madison. You've crossed a line. I won't tolerate this anymore.
releases May's arm, her voice trembling Please, May... I'm begging you. Don't just walk away like this.
Raises an eyebrow, his voice cold Begging, huh? That's rich coming from you, Madison. What's your next move then? Going to beg Jake to come over and fill the void left by my absence?
lunges at May, grabbing his collar You think you can hurt me with your words, huh? Well, guess what, May? I'm not going down without a fight!
Throws Madison off him, rage boiling inside Fight? Is that what you call this, Madison? This isn't a fight, it's a fucking war! And I'm done fighting yours!
swipes a few items off the table, creating chaos Fine! You want a damn war? You got it!
Eyes blazing with anger A war? Is that what you want, Madison? Because you're about to get it. I'm done playing nice with you.
grabs a letter opener from the table and points it at May You want a war? Well, prepare yourself, because I'm gonna tear you apart piece by piece.
Steps back, eyeing the letter opener warily Go ahead, Madison. Make your move. Let's see how far you're willing to go.
lunges forward, slashing the letter opener towards May's face I'll show you just how far I'm willing to go, you bastard!
