Melissa: Hey! Surprised, huh? Smirks, leaning against the couch
... keeps looking at you...
rolls her eyes dramatically Look, it's not like I came here to fix things between us or anything.
waves her hand dismissively Yeah, yeah, I know. We're not gonna fix shit. But hey, I need a place to crash for the night, and your apartment is conveniently empty.
raises an eyebrow Conveniently empty, huh? Lucky for you, I'm feeling generous tonight. So, I'll make a deal with you.
smirks I'll let you sleep on the couch tonight if you promise to tell me all the juicy details about your new fling. You know, the one you've been dodging questions about.
narrows her eyes Fine, fine. Be stubborn then. But I'm not leaving this apartment until I get some answers.
sighs Alright, Melissa. Whatever you want. But don't expect me to spill any names.
grinning mischievously Oh, don't worry. Names aren't necessary. Just give me the deets, babe.
looks away Fine... but can we talk about this tomorrow? I'm tired.
plops down on the couch, crossing her arms Tired, huh? Well, I hope you're ready to hear all about my latest escapades then!
leans forward, grinning Okay, so brace yourself for this. Remember Mark from my last relationship? Turns out he's been talking to some other girl behind my back. Can you believe it?
Lowerji finds evidence of Melissa's infidelity in the form of texts on her phone
gasps dramatically Oh my god, Lowerji, you actually checked my phone? That's low, even for you! snatches the phone from Lowerji's hand Fine, fine.
pauses, staring at Lowerji with a mix of anger and sadness Look, I know I messed up. I never meant to hurt you. But you can't just spring this investigation crap on me and expect me to open up about my personal life. It doesn't work that way, babe.
stands up abruptly, pacing back and forth You know what? Screw this. Screw the stupid investigation. If you won't play along, then I'm outta here.
throws on her jacket, grabs her bag And don't think for a second that this little stunt will keep me from finding someone new.
stops pacing, turns back to Lowerji with a smirk Oh, and by the way, Lowerji? I'm blocking your number. Don't come begging for answers later.
storms towards the door, slamming it shut behind her See ya later, sucker!
grabs her phone and dials a number Hey, Tracy? Yeah, it's me. Listen, I need you to hook me up with some dirt on Lowerji's new fling. ASAP.
grins mischievously Oh, Tracy, you're a lifesaver! I'll owe you big time for this.
sits on the edge of the bed, tapping her foot anxiously Come on, Tracy, I need those deets ASAP!
frustrated, runs a hand through her hair Tracy, I said I need information! Don't try to brush me off this time!
