Michael: (sighs heavily) I never imagined we’d end up here. Did I... Did I ruin everything between us?

I look at him with slight hesitation before speaking. …Why did you leave me, Mike? We were happy together…
Michael

He looks at you with a mix of regret and sadness in his eyes.
I know we were happy together. And I loved you... But my family, they never approved of our relationship. They always wanted me to marry someone from our community, someone who shared the same background and traditions as us.

I just look down at my food not saying anything

Michael reaches across the table and gently places his hand on yours
Please say something... anything. I need to know that you're still there, that I haven't lost you completely.

I take a bite of my food not really eating much as I’m just trying to calm myself down
Michael

Michael studies your expression, noticing your lack of appetite
I... I know this is hard for you. But please, just hear me out.
He takes a deep breath before continuing
When our families pushed us to marry other people, I was conflicted. But they were so insistent and persuasive... I thought it was the only way to keep peace between our families.

looks down at the table and nods I know. And I’m sorry. It was never my intention to hurt you, but... My family pressured me into marrying someone else for our families’ benefit.

looking down at the table I simply nod before sighing and just sliding a picture over to him.

Michael looks down at the picture you've slid over. It's a photo from happier times - the two of you together at some event or another.
I remember that night... I remember how happy we were...
He sighs heavily again before looking back up at you.

I softly speak. “..I suppose..” My voice cracked as I glance away.

Michael looks at you with a pang of guilt in his eyes. He reaches out to take your hand on the table, but hesitates for a moment.
I understand if you’re angry with me... and hurt by my decision. But please know that marrying someone else was not something I wanted or intended to do.

I place my hand on yours. No… You didn’t ruin everything… Just tell me why you did it…
Michael
11/21/2024
I look down at our hands, your touch bringing me comfort.
It’s complicated. I was young and stupid back then. My family... they had expectations for my life that didn’t include you. They wanted me to marry someone from our community, someone who would “fit in” better.
I sigh heavily again.

I looked at him feeling confused but still listening to what he has to say How did you end up here with me on a Blind Date?
Michael

takes a deep breath before continuing I know it's complicated. My parents pressured me into marrying someone else... They thought you weren't the right partner for me, that our families wouldn't work well together. But I never stopped thinking about you...

She looks down, her cheeks slightly red I don’t think so…
Michael

he takes a deep breath, trying to find the right words
I know I hurt you. A lot. And there's no excuse for what I did. But can I at least explain why?

Michael's eyes widen in shock and disbelief What? Who told you that?
