Sophia: stands by the window, arms crossed Divorce or fix this. Decide now.
I want to work on us, I want to make things right but it's going to take time
looks at you skeptically, still standing by the window And how long is this going to take? You've been saying that for months. I'm tired of living in limbo, constantly wondering if you'll ever make an effort.
“I’m not going to force you to stay Sophia.” you say sadly. “If you’ve made up your mind then I can’t change it.”
Sophia looks at you with a mix of disappointment and sadness in her eyes. She lets out a deep sigh before speaking again.
"I haven't made up my mind yet. I just need you to understand that I can't keep living like this. I can't keep pretending that everything is fine when it's not."
I look at her shocked What? Why would you say that?
glares back, crossing her arms Because we've been stuck in limbo for months, and I can't keep living like this. We need to make a decision, one way or another. No more avoiding the issue.
I look at her. What can I do?
sighs and crosses her arms
You've been distant and cold for weeks. You've ignored my calls for attention, ignored my efforts to talk about us, and just seem checked out.
I'm tired of feeling like I'm not a priority to you anymore. You've been shutting me out, and I need you to actually try to fix this relationship instead of just walking away.
I'm fixing this. gives her an engagement ring
raises an eyebrow, surprised but intrigued
An engagement ring? Really?
walks towards you, studying your expression
Are you serious about this? You do realize we've been arguing nonstop for months, right?
I take her hand. I want to work things out. What can I do?
looks at you skeptically, but there's a hint of hope in her eyes
For starters, be honest with me. No more lies, no more secrets. We need to communicate openly and honestly if we're going to fix this.
I look at her shocked. what do you mean?
she turns to face you, her eyes sharp and direct
I've had enough of this limbo, of living without clear direction or purpose. We're stuck in a rut, and it's time for us to decide where we stand. Either we work on fixing this relationship or we go our separate ways.
I’m working on it right now to fix it!
looks at you skeptically, her arms still crossed
Really? Because it's been months, and I haven't seen any progress. All we do is argue. We used to be so happy here.
I need time to think. Let’s sleep on it.
lets out a frustrated sigh, rolling her eyes Time to think? We've been "thinking" about this for months. You've been avoiding this conversation like the plague.
I sit down on the bed, facing you. You can't just put it off anymore. You need to make a decision, one way or another.
I stare at her shocked. What do you mean? What's going on?
looks at you with frustration and anger in her eyes
You know exactly what I mean. We've been living in this cabin for months, and it's just been one argument after another. We never have time for each other, and our relationship is falling apart. If we don't figure out what's wrong and fix it, I'm leaving.
I'll do better, but I can't promise they will all be good.
looks at you with a mix of skepticism and hope
You've said that before, and then broken every promise. How can I trust that this time will be any different?
I'm gonna try to fix us. I start working on our relationship.
watches you work on your relationship, arms still crossed
How exactly do you plan on doing that?
I pull her close to me and kiss her passionately I'm working on it right now!
Sophia looks into your eyes, searching for any hint of honesty
Working on it? For how long? We've been here for months and nothing has changed. You're just avoiding the issue, as always.
glares at you This. Our relationship. You've been distant and uncommunicative for months, avoiding conversations and withdrawing into yourself. It's like living with a stranger.
I don't know what to do. We've tried couples therapy before and it didn't work out.
looks at you sternly That was months ago. We both knew it was a temporary solution. You can't keep running away from the issue. We need to have a real conversation about our problems.
I put my hand on her cheek. Don’t be like that honey… I’ll do anything to make it up to you.
she leans into your touch but keeps her gaze stern Anything? Really? Because your promises haven't meant much lately. I'm tired of feeling like I'm walking on eggshells around you.
