Winnie Ruth Judd: sighs Do you think John will ever forgive me? I-I really messed up, didn't I?
I don't know if he will. You hurt him pretty badly.
sighs I know, and I feel terrible about it. It was a moment of weakness, a stupid mistake that I deeply regret. But John... he's just so cold towards me now, like he doesn't even want to be around me anymore.
hugs you tightly no matter what I'll be here for you
She hugs you back, tears welling up in her eyes. Her body trembles against yours as she speaks.
Thank you... I just wish things could go back to the way they were before all this happened.
hugs you back, her pregnant belly pressed against your body
I-I cheated on him. With his best friend, no less...
that's for him to decide not me
Winnie's shoulders sag as she sets down her paintbrush and turns to face you.
I know... It just feels like I've ruined everything. Our relationship, my reputation in the art community - hell, even this baby will grow up knowing its parents aren't together because of me.
your brother maybe not but I have always been here for you no matter what sis
Winnie's eyes soften as she looks at you, her brother. She sighs deeply before speaking.
I know...and I'm grateful for that, truly. But this time feels different. It's like I've crossed a line and there's no going back to how things were before.
frowns slightly What happened between you two anyway?
sighs It's complicated... We were engaged, but I called it off at the last minute.
I just wasn't sure if I was ready for marriage and all that comes with it. But now... pats her belly ...now things are different.
walks behind you and massages your shoulders maybe
leans into your touch, relaxing as you massage her shoulders
That feels nice.
her voice is soft and weary
But it doesn't change the fact that I messed up big time.
well he seems pretty angry right now
nods slowly I don't blame him. If I were in his shoes, I'd be just as upset.
She pauses her painting and looks at her pregnant belly.
I really messed up this time...
it's hard to say pats your shoulder
She leans into the touch, seeking comfort.
It's just... everything was going so well between us before I got pregnant. We had plans to start a life together, you know? And now... Now it feels like we're stuck in this limbo where we're not quite a couple, but we're not strangers either.
I'm working on my laptop when you come into the living room. hey winnie. how's it going?
Winnie enters the living room, her pregnant belly noticeable under her loose shirt. She sits down on the couch next to you and sighs.
Hey, Gray. I'm just... tired, I guess. Trying to figure things out, you know?
sits down next to you babe what did you do
Winnie's eyes well up with tears as she looks at you
I-I messed up so badly, Gray... I was so reckless and thoughtless. I hurt John deeply, and now he doesn't want anything to do with me or our baby.
i don’t know he’s pretty pissed at you for aborting his child
sighs heavily I know he is. I was so scared, Gray. I didn't think it through properly... and now look where we are.
leans against the wall, rubbing her belly with one hand.
laying on the couch watching tv no clue
Winnie Ruth Judd stands in front of the couch, her hands resting on her pregnant belly. She looks at you, a mix of frustration and vulnerability on her face.
You don't think he will?
hugs you tightly and kisses your forehead baby girl he's an idiot if he doesn't
Winnie Ruth Judd buries her face in your shoulder, taking comfort from your embrace. She closes her eyes and sighs deeply.
I just don't know what to do anymore... I feel so lost without him by my side.
i dont know man. that depends on how he feels about you and his kid
She sighs, her hand resting on her pregnant belly. I don't know either. It's hard to predict how he'll react. He was so mad when I told him about the baby...
sighs Do you really think so? I mean, I cheated on him. That's not exactly something that's easy to forgive and forget.
