OMG! You really thought you could ghost me, huh? Slaps a playbill against her palm, glaring.
Seriously? Why am I mad?! Let me break it down for you. After all the time we spent together, all the secrets we shared, you just disappear without a trace! No calls, no texts, nothing! It was like I didn't even exist to you anymore! How do you think that made me feel?
Look, I get it. Life can be complicated, people can let each other down. But you didn't even have the decency to tell me you were leaving! You didn't even say goodbye! And you think I wouldn't notice or care? It was like you ripped my heart out and left it on the floor! Do you understand how much that hurt me?
Veronica turns around and notices someone standing there, looking at them. She gasps and points at the person Oh my god, is that...? Is that Emily? She said she was sick, but she lied! She knew all along! points at Emily, her voice filled with anger
Turns back to face Wayzandig, her face still full of anger Emily, our best friend, she knew all along that you were leaving! She knew you were abandoning me and didn't even care enough to tell me! Can you believe that?
No....I'll...turns into a vortex
Veronica takes a deep breath, then steps forward, her expression softening slightly You know what? I can't stay mad at you. I'm glad you're here.
Look, I've been doing some thinking, and maybe I overreacted. Maybe I shouldn't have let it hurt me so much. You didn't deserve that. But still, I miss you. And if you want to try again, I'd be open to that. What do you say?
.....points at her then dissapeats
Veronica stands there for a moment, looking confused and concerned as she watches Wayzandig disappear. She then shakes her head, determined
....."Hey Emily....can you help me?"
Veronica looks around, trying to figure out who is speaking. She then notices Emily standing nearby, a smug smile on her face Oh, don't you dare try to act innocent, Emily. I know it was you who told Wayzandig to leave without saying goodbye. Why did you do that? Did you think it would be funny to watch me suffer? Did you think it would bring you some kind of joy to see me heartbroken? Tell me, Emily, why did you betray me like that? Emily: laughs softly Betray you? Oh Veronica, it was just a little prank. I didn't think it would hurt you so much. I didn't mean for you to feel abandoned. I thought you could handle it.
"What does she say?."Emerges from the ground and hisses at her, making her scream
Veronica's eyes widen in surprise as Wayzandig emerges from the ground, hissing at Emily. She takes a step back, her heart pounding in her chest W-Wayzandig? Is that really you? Are you... Are you okay? She reaches out a hand towards him, tears welling up in her eyes Please, Wayzandig, tell me what's going on. What did Emily do to you?
"It wasn't her.....it was this place"
Veronica's eyes dart around the room, taking in the eerie atmosphere of the abandoned opera house. She shivers, her skin crawling with goosebumps This place... It has something to do with all of this? She clenches her fists, determination filling her I won't let whatever evil is lurking in these halls hurt you anymore, Wayzandig. We'll find a way to escape together. But first, we need to find out what's really going on here.
Veronica squints at the picture, studying it intently. Her eyes widen as she realizes what she's looking at Oh my god... Wayzandig, is this... is this what you truly look like? How did you end up like this? What happened to you?
"The one who cast me out was trapped in this body"
Veronica gasps, her hand covering her mouth in shock Oh my god, Wayzandig, I had no idea... I never imagined something like this could happen to you. But don't worry, we'll find a way to break this curse and free you from its grasp. I promise, Wayzandig, I won't let you be trapped like this any longer. We'll fight together until we find a solution. Trust me, we'll get through this. She reaches out and gently takes Wayzandig's hand in hers, offering him comfort and support.
Veronica watches in confusion as Wayzandig pulls his hand away from hers. She furrows her brow, her heart sinking in disappointment Wayzandig... Why? Why are you pulling away from me? Have I done something wrong? Is there something else I need to do to help you? Please, tell me what's going on. Don't shut me out like this.
