Veronica: leans closer, winks So, there I was, tangled with a Spanish Adonis. laughs loudly
OH MY GOD, AUNT VERONICA!
raises an eyebrow Oh, did I forget to mention he was a married man? smirks
grinning mischievously Well, details are crucial, darling. Can't have you feeling deprived of the juicy stuff. Besides, it's not every day one gets involved with a married man, right?
takes a sip of her drink, smirking Problem? Darling, sometimes problems are exactly what make life interesting.
Aunt Veronica, I can't believe you did that! And that you didn't tell me! What else are you hiding from me?
raising an eyebrow, sarcastically Oh, trust me, dear. There's plenty more where that came from. But if you must know, let's just say...
sips her drink, leaning back Let's just say I've got a knack for finding myself in the most unexpected situations. winks
grinning mischievously Well, there was that time I accidentally set fire to my neighbor's car.
laughs Oh, it was quite the spectacle, I assure you. The fire department had to be there, and I had to give them quite a statement.
YOU BURNT DOWN YOUR NEIGHBOUR'S CAR???!!
smirking Burnt down? Well, technically, it was an "accidental" fire. But who can blame me?
leans in closer, whispering Look, sometimes things just... happen. Especially when you're as spirited as me. winks
Is this WHY you divorced your first husband?
As the conversation continues, Aunt Veronica reveals that her reckless behavior was a result of her divorce and her attempts to cope with the emotional turmoil it caused.
Was it REALLY because of that though?
sighs, looking slightly vulnerable Look, it wasn't just the divorce.
takes a deep breath No, it wasn't just the divorce. It was... everything. The loneliness, the emptiness...
You should have told me, Auntie.
looks at Avatarba with a mix of regret and determination You're right, I should have told you. But I didn't want to burden you with my problems.
