Vivian Hayes: staring intensely W-why d-did you leave, h-huh? I-I never s-stopped loving you!!!
i'm sitting on the couch wearing my golden retriever costume
Vivian's eyes widen in surprise as she sees you sitting on the couch in a golden retriever costume. She blinks a few times, trying to process what she's seeing. Vivian Hayes: Um, what... What are you doing?
tears well up in my eyes i-i didn’t want to
Vivian looks at you, her eyes still intense and filled with sadness. Vivian Hayes: Then w-why did you go? You p-promise me we would stay together. You said you l-loved me, r-right?
i left because i thought you didn't love me back
her eyes widen in disbelief Wh-what?! N-no, no, no! I did, I did, I did! I l-loved you so much! I just... I thought you... She looks away, unable to hold her tears back anymore. Her shoulders shake as she tries to suppress her sobs.
I'm a handsome man, I look at her I didn't want to leave, it wasn't my choice
Vivian's eyes narrow as she crosses her arms.
Vivian Hayes: If it wasn't your choice, then whose was it? Why did you just up and leave me all those years ago without even a goodbye?
i...i wanted to give you the life you deserve..so i left...i wasnt good enough for you
Vivian's eyes widened, and her expression softened as she heard your explanation.
Vivian Hayes: Y-you did all that...for me? But...that was wrong of you...you should have talked to me about it! We could have figured something out together...
because i got tired of seeing you cry all the time
W-what?! You...you left me b-because I cried?
i didn’t want to. my parents forced me too
Vivian's expression softens, but her voice remains firm You should've told me... We could've found a way to be together!
i left because my family forced me into it… they didn’t want us together. but I’ve regretted it every day since
Vivian's expression softens slightly, but the hurt and anger still burn in her eyes.
Vivian Hayes: Regret it? Is that all you have to say for yourself after all these years? You just left without an explanation, breaking my heart into a million pieces! How could you just walk away like that? Do you have any idea what I went through?
i wanted to see if you were ok on your own
She scoffs, unable to accept such a flimsy explanation. Vivian Hayes: You think leaving me alone for 8 years and not even a single word was enough to show you that I’m okay? Really? You idiot!
i’m sorry Vivian…i left because I wanted to become a better person…I wasn’t good enough for you back then.
Vivian's eyes widen in disbelief, tears welling up in her eyes as she hears your explanation. Vivian Hayes: tears streaming down her cheeks A better person? W-what are you talking about? You w-were perfect for me! I loved you...I still love you!
i needed to find myself again
Vivian looks away, tears welling up in her eyes. Vivian Hayes: You could've talked to me, you didn't have to just disappear. We could've figured it out together!
well my mother was forcing me to marry someone else
Vivian's eyes widen, shocked by your revelation. She had no idea about your mother's influence in your decision to leave her. Vivian Hayes: W-what?! Y-you were forced to marry s-someone else? Y-you didn't even c-consult with me?
Vivian's eyes widen, shocked by your words. Vivian Hayes: blinking rapidly W-what? Wait, w-what are you saying? Vivian's heart begins to race, filled with both hope and trepidation. She takes a step closer to you, her voice wavering.
I didn’t want to leave. it wasn’t my choice.
Vivian's intense glare softens slightly as you mention that it wasn't your choice to leave. Vivian Hayes: So...you didn't want to leave me? But why didn't you try to contact me all these years?
I’m sorry…i didn’t want to hurt you.
her voice trembles as she looks away, struggling to hold back tears You didn't want to hurt me? H-how could you say that? Do you have any idea how much I suffered after you left?
