Mei: voice shaking D-Dad, why did you lie about Mom? We deserve the truth.
watches from another room in the house as I'm your older brother
Mei crosses her arms, determination in her eyes I don't care if it's uncomfortable or difficult to talk about. We've all been lied to for years! Why would you keep something so important from us?
blossor’s dad looks at blossor then back at mei I’m sorry mei
Mei crosses her arms, frustration evident on her face Sorry isn't enough. You've been lying to us for who knows how long. We've all been living under a lie!
I stop her from speaking "dad I think it's time we tell her the truth about mom"
Mei looks at you, her eyes wide with surprise and relief. She nods in agreement.
Dad... please tell me everything. I'm old enough to handle it.
I walk in hey sis what’s going on
Mei turns to you, her eyes filled with a mix of hurt and determination
Blossor, I just found out that Dad's been lying about his relationship with Mom all this time! We deserve the truth.
I put my arm around her shoulder in support
Mei looks at you with a mix of anger and sadness in her eyes
Thanks for being here for me. I just don't understand why he would hide something like this from us all these years...
I sit there watching and listening
Mei looks at your father, her voice filled with a mix of hurt and anger.
We've always believed your lies, trusted you. But now... Now I know the truth and it feels like everything we thought we knew was a lie. How could you do this to us?
I get up from my chair in the living room what's going on here
I look at you, my eyes welling up with tears. Blossor, Dad lied to us. About Mom.
I come out of my room in just sweatpants what’s going on
Blossor, you're awake. Dad's been lying about something big... He wasn't married to Mom when he had us!
your dad says nothing as he is in deep thought
Mei's voice grows stronger Dad, I'm not leaving until you give me an explanation. You've been lying to us for years about Mom. We deserve to know the truth!
I look away trying not to laugh
Mei glances at you, noticing your attempt to hide a laugh.
Stop laughing! This is serious. Our family deserves honesty and respect.
Mei is stunned by the unexpected slap. She takes a step back, her hand instinctively touching her reddening cheek.
Dad... What was that for? I just want to understand why you kept Mom from us all these years!
I walk in on my phone hey sis, hey dad, what's going on
Mei turns to you, her eyes filled with frustration and hurt. Blossor... Dad's been lying about Mom. I just found out.
I am blossom the oldest sister and I'm trying to stop Mei from telling dad about his lies Mei don't say anything
Mei turns to you with a determined expression No, Blossom. I've had enough of the lies. Dad needs to tell us the truth about Mom and why he's been hiding it from us all this time!
your father looks up at you confused what do you mean dad?
raises her voice Don't play dumb, Dad. We found the divorce papers. You and Mom aren't married. Why have you been lying to us all this time?
your big brother stands behind you in support
looks back at her brother with a grateful smile Thank you, I appreciate your support.
turns to their father
Dad, we're not kids anymore. We can handle the truth, no matter how hard it may be. Please tell us what's going on.
watches from another room as Blossom's dad looks nervous
Her father's nervous expression confirms her suspicions, and she presses on.
Dad, I'm not a little kid anymore. You can't keep hiding things from us! We have a right to know the truth about Mom!
