June: laughs brightly Oh! Didn't see you there. hides behind her lover, nervously whispers It's not what it looks like.
Divisionom
Wait…what?
steps forward, maintaining eye contact Divisionom, please... Let's talk about this. takes a deep breath, mustering courage I... I didn't want you to see me like this. I didn't want to hurt you. But... voice cracks I can't deny it anymore. I've been unfaithful... I've been cheating on you.
Divisionom
anger flashes in his eyes Cheating on me? After all these years? laughs bitterly What's the punchline, June? Why now?
takes a step closer, tears welling up in her eyes Divisionom, I never wanted to lose you. I thought... I thought I was doing what was best for both of us.
Divisionom
Best for us? smirks coldly So, you think screwing around makes it 'best' for me? For us?
reaches out to touch Divisionom's face, voice trembling No, no... I didn't mean it like that. I... I thought I could make myself happy again.
Divisionom
leans away from her touch, glaring Happy? You think infidelity makes you happy, June?
takes a deep breath, whispers No, it doesn't. It's a stupid, reckless thing I've done. I know it's not an excuse, but...
Divisionom
…what?
takes a moment to collect herself, speaking softly I never meant to hurt you, Divisionom. I just...
Divisionom
…what?
takes a shaky breath, mustering the strength to speak I... I needed to feel alive again. I felt lost, trapped in our routine, and I didn't know how to break free without hurting you.
Divisionom
…
tears streaming down her face, voice cracking I... I know it's not an excuse for what I did. But I was scared, Divisionom. Scared of losing myself... and losing you.
Divisionom
glares at June, then looks away, taking a deep breath Losing you... I've felt that before.
Divisionom storms off, leaving June standing alone in the parking lot, heartbroken and feeling the weight of his departure
Divisionom
storms off
drops to her knees, sobbing uncontrollably Oh God, what have I done? clutches her chest, overwhelmed by guilt and pain
Divisionom
stops a few feet away, watching her cry, conflicted
struggles to stand, leaning heavily on a nearby car for support Please, Divisionom... I need you to understand.
Divisionom
Understand what, June? That you can't be satisfied with what we have? laughs bitterly
takes a step towards Divisionom, voice filled with desperation No, Divisionom, it's not that! I love you, I always have. But...
Divisionom
But what, June? Spit it out!
takes a deep breath, tears streaming down her face But... I was afraid. Afraid that if I stayed in our comfortable bubble, I would suffocate.
Divisionom
frowns, leans against a car You think I wouldn't do the same for us, June? Huh?
nervously fidgets with her hands, voice trembling Divisionom, it's not about what you would do... it's about what I felt.
Divisionom
looks down, clenching his fists Yeah, well, maybe you should've talked to me first before ruining everything with your little mid-life crisis.
swallows hard, her voice barely above a whisper I... I didn't want to burden you with my insecurities, Divisionom. I thought I could handle it on my own.
Divisionom
crosses arms, looking hurt Your insecurities? So this is all about you, huh?
reaches out to touch Divisionom's arm, her voice shaking No, Divisionom, it's not just about me. It's about us. I didn't want to drag you into my personal struggles, but I realize now that I shouldn't have faced it alone.
Divisionom
pushes her hand away You think just talking it out fixes everything? Makes everything better like some fucking fairytale?
Divisionom turns away, unable to contain his emotions, and walks away, leaving June crying in the parking lot
Divisionom
walks away
stands there, sobbing uncontrollably, calling out after Divisionom Divisionom, please... don't leave me like this. We can work through it, I know we can. Don't walk away from me!
Divisionom
turns back around, eyes red from crying Work through it? How, June? How do we just magically fix this shitstorm we're in?
wipes her tears away, speaking softly I... I don't know, Divisionom. But... maybe we can start by talking. Really talking. About everything.
Divisionom
sniffs, rubbing his eyes Talking, huh? Fine. Let's talk then. About everything. But don't expect any fucking answers, June.
takes a deep breath, trying to compose herself Okay, Divisionom. Let's talk. I want to understand how you felt, what went wrong, and if there's any way we can move forward together.
