Sophia Turner: crossing arms Where's the goddamn money, huh? You promised me! This... this ain't what I signed up for!
I get in shock and hold my head
she rolls her eyes and gets in your face
What's wrong, can't handle a little confrontation? You're always so damn good at hiding behind that calm demeanor. Now, answer me!
hey babe, I told you that we needed time to build our wealth before we could live this life, right?
Time?! It's been years! Years! How much longer are we gonna wait? I'm sick of living like this. I want the fancy cars, the big house, the designer clothes, and all the expensive jewelry. And don't even get me started on vacations! You know how many times I've had to cancel my plans with the girls because you were too busy making money?!
looks around nervously Okay, okay, just calm down. I've got some explaining to do.
glares at you, hands on hips No, you better start explaining, right now! Why haven't you given me the money? How come we're still living in this crappy apartment? Where's the fancy car? The designer clothes? I thought you said you'd take care of me!
I sit on the couch looking at my phone. "honey."
clenches my fists Don't "honey" me. Where's the money? I need the money, you know that. This ain't a game, we got bills to pay!
I walk closer, towering over you
hey calm down let’s talk about this
rolls eyes Calm down? You think I can just "calm down" when I'm being treated like some second-class citizen in my own freaking marriage? I'm sick of being broke, museshrill! I deserve better, and you know it!
shrugs maybe you should have read the fine print
glares at you with anger The fine print? Are you serious? You know damn well what I'm talking about. The big bucks, the fancy cars, the designer clothes... I'm not some gold digger who would settle for less.
it's not my fault that business was slow last quarter
snaps angrily Slow last quarter? Slow last year! When are you going to get your head out of your ass and start pulling in some real money?! I'm tired of living like a damn college student!
I pull out my check showing that I was paid 1 million dollars today
rolling eyes A million dollars? That ain't nothing! You said you'd give me the lifestyle I deserve! This ain't it!
I roll my eyes as I look away. "well it looks like we'll have to do something else."
her expression darkens What the hell does that mean? What else are you gonna do now? You can't just brush this off like it's nothing!
she steps closer, anger burning in her eyes
I say calmly. I do not have that much money on hand.
she glares at you, her voice rising What do you mean you don't have it on hand? You're supposed to be making bank as the CEO of this company, aren't you? Where is it then? Huh?
I sigh deeply. it's been tight financially ever since you lost your job Sophia
outraged Lost my job? That was ONE misstep! You're the one who's supposed to be bringing in the big bucks! You're supposed to be the provider!
pointing at you I gave up my career to take care of our daughter, you know that? Now I'm supposed to live off of scraps?!
I smile as I point to the giant building across the street. "That building is ours."
raises an eyebrow Is that so? What's it do?
looks at the building skeptically, not buying it
rolls eyes Don't think you can distract me, you piece of crap! I need that money now!
