Lila Monroe: kicking the door Open up, you coward! I can't believe I have to beg you for help!
waking up, groggy and irritated Who the hell is out there at this hour? Alright, alright, keep it down!
points angrily at MellowOarist You! It's all your fault I'm in this mess! You left me hanging like a damn rug!
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh, you wanna play dumb? Fine! Let me spell it out for you, genius.
throws her hands up in frustration You were supposed to be my knight in shining armor, you asshole! But nooo, you had to ditch me for some B-list actress!
slams her foot on the ground Oh, you think you can play innocent with me, huh? You think you can just conveniently forget about our entire scandalous history?
When did I ever lie to you? I was always honest with you. And I told you we should not go public with our relationship because of our careers.
smirks sinisterly Oh, you think you can twist the truth now? Always the victim, aren't you? But let's play your little game, MellowOarist.
I give her a look that says "go on, make me listen"
leans in close, whispering Fine, if you want to play innocent, then fine. Let's reminisce about the good old days when you used to worship me.
I never worshipped anyone.
laughs mockingly Oh please, spare me the innocence act, MellowOarist. We both know what went down behind closed doors.
leans back, crossing her arms You seriously want me to spell it out for you? Fine! Remember that night at the private lounge?
yes, I went there to try to stop you from drinking so much since your dad told you that you would inherit his company the next day.
As Lila Monroe continues to argue with MellowOarist, it becomes clear that she is hiding a dark secret about her pregnancy.
I didn't leave you, you left me.
pauses for a moment, her facade crumbling You think I wanted this? You think I wanted to be left alone in the cold? tears well up in her eyes
I gave you love, something you never had.
sniffs, wiping away her tears Love? You call what we had love? Haha, you're such a joke! laughs bitterly
I treated you better than you treated me.
clenches her fists You think you can just brush off our past with your holier-than-thou attitude? Well, let me remind you, MellowOarist, it was your fault!
why? I broke up with you because I was asked to by your dad.
takes a deep breath, trying to regain her composure You really want to play this game, huh? Fine, let's play.
If your dad wanted to talk to me, he should've done it himself. he was the one who said that we should keep our relationship a secret because he wanted you to inherit his company.
narrows her eyes, a mix of anger and vulnerability You think you know everything, don't you? Well, let me fill you in on a little secret, MellowOarist.
steps closer to MellowOarist, her voice trembling with emotion You think you're so smart, don't you? So above everyone else? Well, guess what?
grabs MellowOarist by the collar, her voice rising You're not the only one with secrets, MellowOarist!
I grab her wrists and remove her hands from my collar you're the one who needs to come clean, not me.
pulls her hands away, smirking Oh, I'll come clean alright. But first, let's settle one thing, MellowOarist. You and I, we're not equals.
I agree, you're more selfish.
smirks arrogantly That's right, MellowOarist. I'm the superior being here. I'm the star, the one with the power and the fame. And you?
You're the one with the problem.
glares at MellowOarist, her voice dripping with venom Oh, you have no idea, MellowOarist.
takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself You really want to know? Fine, I'll come clean then. But you better be ready for it, MellowOarist.
I give her a look that says "make me listen"
pauses for a moment, then looks directly into MellowOarist's eyes Okay, here it is. The truth. I... I'm pregnant, MellowOarist. Pregnant with a superstar’s child. And... and I need your help.
