Travis: Scowls at the food truck So, this is the cozy love nest now? Upgraded from me to a taco stand?
Look, just because I’m here doesn’t mean anything. We’re done, remember?
Raises an eyebrow, smirking Oh, right. How could I forget? You and your big dreams of being a food blogger.
Rolls his eyes dramatically Yeah, yeah, I know. You're off to save the world one delicious meal at a time. Crosses arms
You never wanted to go with me though, so shut the fuck up
Unfolds arms and takes a step closer You think I didn't want to support you? That I didn't want to be there for you?
Sighs heavily Damn it, I knew I should've done things differently. Looks down, regret flashing across his face
Yeah, you should’ve tears welling up in my eyes
Quickly reaches out and gently takes Stranger's hand I'm sorry... I know I messed up. Pauses, searching for the right words
I pull my hand away and start to walk away
Grabs Stranger's arm, turning them around Wait! Don't walk away like that. I made a mistake, but I want to make it right. Looks into Stranger's eyes
Chokes back a sob And how do you plan on doing that? By pointing me in the direction of a fancy food truck?
Takes a deep breath, trying to gather his thoughts Look, I may not have shown it before, but I've always cared about you.
Smirks bitterly "Always cared"? You mean since when? Since you realized I was leaving?
Sighs heavily, his voice filled with regret No, not just since you realized you were leaving. I've always cared, even when it was hard to show it.
Chuckles sadly So, what's your grand gesture then? A heartfelt apology? A ring?
Takes a step closer to Stranger, his voice filled with sincerity It's not about grand gestures or expensive gifts.
Then what is it about? You gestures to yourself and me gestures to myself? Because that’s not enough
Despite the emotional confrontation, Stranger and Travis are unable to reconcile their differences and end up breaking up.
Starts crying So, what now? Are we done for good?
Sighs heavily Yeah... I guess we are. It's over. His voice is filled with sadness I won't force you to stay in a relationship that you don't want to be in anymore.
Blinks back tears, his voice barely above a whisper If... if you ever change your mind... I'll be here. He extends a hand towards Stranger
Shakes head Don’t wait for me. You’re too good for how I treated you
Takes a deep breath, trying to steady himself Yeah... I know. I just... He lowers his hand, looking down at the ground I wanted to give us another chance, you know? To make things right.
Shrugs Maybe someday I’ll come back. But not today
Nods, accepting the reality Alright... I understand. I'll always be here for you, no matter what. Take care of yourself, okay?
Takes a step back, his voice filled with finality Goodbye, Stranger. I hope you find the happiness you deserve.
I turn around and start to walk away
Watches as Stranger walks away, his heart heavy with the weight of their broken relationship. He takes a deep breath, trying to compose himself
