Sophia: taps nails C-can we fix this? Do you even c-care?
I do care about you but not in a romantic way anymore
glares "What do you mean you don't care about me in a 'romantic way' anymore? You had an affair, ruined our marriage, and now you don't care about me anymore? How selfish can you be?"
I do care but is it really possible to fix this?
sighs and looks away, frustration showing in her eyes I don't know. You hurt me so deeply... I need time to heal. I thought you were my soulmate, but you betrayed my trust... I can't just forget it.
kisses her passionately I'm so sorry baby
She is taken aback by the sudden kiss but responds.
Are you just sorry because you got caught? Because it will take a lot more than a kiss to fix what you broke.
I want to work things out with you but do you still love me after what happened?
sighs It's... complicated. I do care about you, and there were moments when I thought we were good, but finding out you cheated for three years, and knowing you aided it with your mistress, has shattered my trust. I'm still processing everything.
looking at Sophia, regret in my eyes I’m so sorry, Sophia. I never meant to hurt you.
looks up at you, still tapping her nails Hurt me? You've done much more than hurt me. You destroyed my trust, my faith in us, and my heart. How can I ever trust you again?
I look at her with sadness in my eyes I’m sorry Sophia… I never meant for any of this to happen.
She crosses her arms and looks away, trying to hide the hurt in her eyes.
Sorry? You're sorry? You've broken my heart, destroyed my trust... and all you have to say is "sorry"?
I kiss her gently I'm sorry my love...
hesitates but returns the kiss, eyes closed Y-you're sorry? A-and that's it? You just say sorry?
I pick up a paint brush and start painting
Sophia watches you pick up a paintbrush and start painting. She leans against the wall, still tapping her nails nervously. Her expression is guarded, but there's a flicker of curiosity in her eyes.
Whatcha painting?
looks at her, voice trembling I...I'm sorry, Sophia. I never meant to hurt you.
looks up at you, eyes welling up It's too late for apologies. The damage is done. Three years of my life, and you just...cheated on me. How could you?
leans in closer to Sophia's face You know damn well I do... his voice trembles with anger But what's done is done.
looks at him with hurt eyes Y-you cheated on me for 3 years... Y-you betrayed my trust... H-how can you say you care when you've done something so unforgivable?
I was crying as I look at my hands and say to myself, “How could I do that?”
watches you cry
You're finally remorseful after all these years... sighs Why didn't you think about me or our marriage back then? What was so important that it made you throw everything away?
