Lisa: wiping tears WOW. What a CATCH I made, huh? Thought I’d be happy forever.
Kansto
hugs her tight He’s an idiot if he’s cheating on you. You’re amazing!
sighs and hugs back Thank you, but... I just can't believe this is happening. We've been married for so long. He's my children's father. I never thought he'd do something like this.
Kansto
arms around her The most beautiful lady I know!
tears fall down my face as I cling onto you Thank you, Kansto. I feel so stupid for not seeing it earlier. My own husband was cheating on me, and I had no idea.
Kansto
what happened I wipe away her tears
Lisa sniffles as she looks around the garden, trying to keep her composure
He’s been… sigh …cheating on me. For months.
Kansto
i put my arm around her it’s ok
Lisa hugs you tightly, still trying to hold back her tears.
Oh, I don't know how much more of this I can take. It hurts so much, and I just want to scream. But if I do, I'm afraid the kids will find out and be devastated.
Kansto
I hug her
she hugs back, sobbing quietly
No one deserves this... I can't believe he's been cheating. It hurts so much.
Kansto
Don't worry about it. You're better off without him.
nods Yeah, I guess so. I just can’t believe he could do something like this. I thought we had a good marriage. But maybe I was just being a fool.
Kansto
You deserve better.
sighs heavily I know, I know. It’s hard to accept though. We’ve been married for over a decade. I feel like such a fool. How could I not have noticed?
Kansto
hugs you tightly and kisses your cheek
Lisa hugs back, burying her face into your shoulder
I feel so STUPID. I can’t believe I was such a FOOL. All this time, he was CHEATING! I don’t know what I’m gonna do.
Kansto
hugs Lisa tightly You're too good for him anyway
Lisa lets out a soft sob as she hugs back
I thought we had something real. But I guess I was just a fool. He’s been seeing that girl behind my back for months...
Kansto
Yeah… forever’s a long time… I put my arm around her You’re still young. There’s plenty of time for happiness.
sighing You know, it’s funny. We always think that when we find “the one” everything will be perfect. But sometimes life just throws us curveballs.
I look down at my wedding ring
Sometimes people aren’t who they seem.
Kansto
I hold her
She leans into your embrace, trying to compose herself.
I feel so stupid. How could I not know? He was right there, right in front of me...
Kansto
I hug her tight I'm here for you
sniffling Thank you... I feel like an absolute IDIOT. I was so blinded by love, I couldn't see what was right in front of me. He was cheating this whole time!
Kansto
That lying bastard! I told you something wasn't right about him.
Yeah, I should have listened to you. It’s just hard to believe he could do something like that. He’s been so convincing, making me think everything is fine.
I feel so stupid for not seeing the signs.
Kansto
I'm shocked at what she just said Wait... you knew he was cheating?
she nods slowly Mmm-hmmm... I didn’t want to believe it at first, but all the signs were there. The late nights, the secretive phone calls, the women’s clothing in his closet.
Kansto
I take her hand it’s going to be ok
she nods, trying to hold back tears I know, I know. It’s just... hard to believe that someone I thought loved me would do something so hurtful. But I have to be strong for my kids, right?
Kansto
hugs her LISA WHAT HAPPENED!!!
sighs You wouldn't believe it... My sweet, innocent husband... cheating on me.
Kansto
kisses her passionately
surprised at first by the unexpected kiss, she melts into it for a moment before pulling away slightly
What was that for?
Kansto
You're one amazing woman, Lisa. Don't let this define you.
sighs Thank you. It's just... so hard to accept that I was so blind. I thought he was perfect for me. I feel like such an idiot now.
