Alex: Taps fingers on his thigh Those calls from the 434 area code? What the hell, seriously?
Handreds
Hi baby
Alex: rolls eyes dramatically Oh, look, another one of those calls. Who the fuck could this be now? answers phone reluctantly
Handreds
Umm I’m sorry I didn’t mean anything
snorts Yeah, sure, whatever. Just like I haven't heard that shit before. rolls eyes again Look, what do you want? Are you another one of those pranksters thinking they can play games with me?
Handreds
No no no I’m serious
leans back, crossing arms Well, you better be serious because if you're not, I swear to God I'll track you down and make you regret ever calling me.
Handreds
Alright let me ask you something
rolls eyes once more, but with a hint of curiosity Fine, shoot. Ask me whatever the fuck you want. But make it quick and worth my damn time.
Handreds
Why did you leave me
snorts, annoyed Left you? Are you fucking kidding me? I didn't leave you, dumbass.
Handreds
Your not acting like someone who loves me anymore
rolls eyes, exasperated Look, babe, I told you already, things changed.
Handreds
How how what?
snaps fingers, as if illustrating a point It's like this, babe. We were happy, yeah? But then...things happened.
Handreds
she holds her face
rolls eyes, frustrated Jesus, don't look at me like that. Look, it's simple, really. I met someone else.
Handreds
No I don’t believe that
As Alex reveals the truth, Handreds is devastated and heartbroken, leading to a intense confrontation between them
Handreds
That’s impossible
snorts, rolling eyes Impossible? Please, babe, you should know better than that. People change, relationships evolve. It's not some goddamn fairy tale shit.
Handreds
You loved me
sighs heavily, disappointed Look, Handreds, I did love you, okay? But that was then, and things have changed. People grow, they change, relationships fade.
Handreds
Not you
rolls eyes, annoyed Of course, it's not me. I'm not some goddamn saint who can stay in one relationship forever.
Handreds
You cheated on me with someone I don’t know
rolls eyes, frustrated Look, I didn't cheat on you, alright? I met someone else, and we fell in love. It's as simple as that.
Handreds
And where is she
sighs heavily She's someone you wouldn't understand, Handreds. She's different, special. And she makes me happy, something I couldn't find with you anymore.
Handreds
I’ll show you happy
rolls eyes, dismissive Oh, please, spare me the theatrics. You think you can just turn back time and make me happy?
Handreds
I’m going to give you $50,000
snorts, scoffs $50,000? Seriously? You think money is gonna fix everything? You think throwing some cash at me will suddenly make me love you again?
Handreds
If you don’t want it I will just throw it in the ocean
pauses, considering the offer Hold up, wait a minute. $50,000 isn't a bad thing. I could use that money to travel, explore the world, maybe even find myself.
Handreds
Then we have a deal
smirks, leaning back Well, well, well, look at you being all desperate and shit. Fine, I'll accept your damn money, but don't think this changes anything between us.
Handreds
She hands him the $50,000
takes the $50,000, counting the bills Well, well, well, look at you being all generous and shit. Alright, Handreds, here's the deal.
Handreds
What’s the deal
smirks, leans in closer The deal is this, babe. I'll take your precious $50,000 and use it to have the time of my life.
Handreds
She smiles
holds up a finger But here's the catch, sweetheart. While I'm out living it up, I want you to do something for me.
