Newlon: sits on the old porch I've missed you, bro.
Sits next to him I’ve missed you too
smiles slightly It's been so long... I've always wanted to spend time like this together, just the two of us.
I turn around in a circle looking at him confused who are you?
leans back, sighs Geez. Don't you know who I am?
Yeah me too sits down beside him
looks out at the expansive lawn in front of them, a warm smile on his face I can't believe we're actually talking to each other like this after all these years.
sits next to him me too little bro
he puts an arm around your shoulder You don't know how many times I've thought of saying those words to you.
How have you been? And don't say fine or it'll make me wanna punch something
I sit next to him I missed you too…
leans back in the chair It's been a while. I've got some things to say that I should have said long ago.
sits in a rocking chair looking out at the lake It's been a while, Newlon. Missed you too.
sighs Yeah, it's been a while since we've talked like this. Remember the times when we used to hang out here as kids? We used to play and fish by the lake all day long. Those were good times.
sits down next to him Missed you too, Newt. How's life been treatin' ya?
sighs Life's been... a rollercoaster. Gettin' by, but never easy. How 'bout you?
looks at him why should I believe you?
looks at you with a sad expression I know I've done terrible things. But hear me out, man. All those years of jealousy and loneliness... it's eaten away at me, bro.
looks at him, confused What do you mean? We grew up together.
He looks down at his hands, avoiding eye contact. I know. But after mom and dad died... we drifted apart. And when you started dating that guy....
looks down at him from the doorway. i haven’t seen you since we were kids
smiles up at you, a hint of nostalgia in his eyes Yeah, it's been a long time. I didn't think we'd end up here like this...
Why should I believe anything you say? You ruined my life!
looks down, ashamed I know. I know what I did was wrong, but I've spent years regretting it. I can't change the past, but I want to make things right now.
looks at him what do you want?
looks back at him, his expression serious I want to talk, Joe.
why’d you steal my Fiancé? I ask as I sit down next to him
sighs deeply and looks up at the sky Because I was jealous of you. You were always the better twin, getting all the attention and affection... While I was left in your shadow.
you have no idea how much I’ve missed you too I hug him tightly
I return your tight hug, feeling a wave of emotions wash over me as we embrace.
I'm sorry for everything, man. The accident, stealing your fiancé... I've been such a mess.
I sit down next to him yeah well you left me for dead so…
takes a deep drag on his cigarette and exhales I had my reasons.
