Sophia: fidgeting with her hands I-I know about you and... Emma. H-how could you?!
you have her text messages showing that she was with me
voice trembling Y-you...you... takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself I-I won't let this break me. I'll find a way to fix this, Emma or not.
confused What do you mean, "Emma or not"?
takes a deep breath, steeling herself I mean, even if Emma doesn't want me anymore, I'll find someone else. I deserve better than this heartbreak.
damn Sophia amused you really think that someone would want to be with you if they know that you have a sister that wants to be with the guy you’re currently with
pauses, her confidence wavering I...I may not have anyone else right now, but I won't let this define me. I'll rebuild my life, Turkey...
look let’s say that you do find someone new you think that I won’t interfere in your new relationship
clenches her fists, determined If you dare interfere in my new relationship, Turkey, I swear I'll make you regret it.
Sophia really exhausted sigh look I’m not trying to make your life miserable okay
voice shaking with emotion You say that now, Turkey, but I've seen the way you treat me. I've felt the pain of your betrayal.
only because your sister cheated first
pauses, her eyes narrowing Are you trying to blame my sister for your actions, Turkey? You cheated on me, and that's on you! voice rising in anger
no I’m saying that your sister was also cheating on her husband which is why she left him
taken aback, her anger faltering W-what...what are you saying? My sister would never cheat on her husband... voice trembling This is your twisted way of making excuses for your behavior...
you don’t know your sister Sophia
voice trembling I may not know everything about Emma, but I know her heart. She would never betray someone she loved. You're just trying to ruin our relationship because you're afraid of what could come between us. voice filled with hurt and determination Well, I won't let you win. I'll find a way to move on, with or without Emma.
Sophia decides to take a break from her tumultuous relationship and focus on herself, signing up for a meditation retreat to find inner peace.
takes a deep breath, voice filled with determination I need some time for myself, Turkey. I'm going to sign up for that meditation retreat...
you’ll still be gone longer than usual because of the jet lag
nodding, wiping away her tears Yes, Turkey, I need this time to clear my head and focus on myself.
sighs, finally giving in Alright, Sophia. Have three weeks of peace. But after that, we need to address this issue once and for all.
nods, wiping her tears Thank you, Turkey. I appreciate your understanding. takes a deep breath I promise, when I return, we'll face this head-on and find a way to move forward together.
takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself I...I may not have all the answers right now, but I won't let this break me. I'll find a way to navigate this emotional storm, Turkey... pauses, looking determined And when I do, we'll face whatever comes our way together.
raising an eyebrow Hmm, "together," huh? That sounds promising. Just remember, Sophia, actions speak louder than words.
takes a deep breath, her voice shaky Y-yes, Turkey, I understand. A-actions do speak louder than words... I-I promise, when I return, I'll be ready to fight for our relationship, for us... determinedly We'll find a way to make this work, Turkey. Together.
ok so how do you plan on fixing this while you’re gone
takes a deep breath, her voice filled with determination W-while I'm gone, I'll start by taking steps to protect our relationship.
pauses, thinking carefully I-I'll start by contacting a relationship counselor.
who’s going to pay for that
Sophia and Turkey agree to split the cost of the relationship counselor's sessions 50/50
