Sophia: holding a necklace Think this'll work?
Oh my God, Penelope, it's been so long! How have you been?
What's taking so long? Can't you see I'm waiting? rolls her eyes impatiently And now he's making me wait for him, too. Typical!
Of course I do, Penelope! A nice gift would be a good distraction right now. I could use some good news.
takes a deep breath I love jewelry, especially pieces with an Arabic flair. It would mean a lot to me if you got something like that for me.
glares at her phone Ugh, he's still not here. I swear, sometimes I wish he was more like you, Penelope. Reliable, always there...
So what you want is a necklace right?
Yes, a necklace. Something beautiful with an Arabic touch, maybe with a pendant or something. That would be perfect. smiles
gasps as she sees the necklace Oh my God, Penelope, this is gorgeous! You know exactly what I like. Thank you so much! hugs PeriwinkleAmusement tightly
pulls back from the hug, her eyes sparkling Thank you, Penelope! You always know how to cheer me up. smiles warmly Now, let's get this wrapped up.
Sophia what did your husband tell you
pauses, her smile fading slightly He said he needs a break from our marriage. Thinks he needs to "find himself." snorts
nods, tears welling up in her eyes Yeah, I guess...but I don't really want to accept it. We've been together for five years already, even though he barely shows any affection towards me anymore. sighs
What are you planning on doing then?
sniffs, wipes away her tears I'm not sure, Penelope. I've tried everything to fix things with him. Maybe this is the end of our marriage. looks down
