sighs heavily Babe, you see the game last night? Crazy, right?
KiwiTary
Yeah, it was wild. But hey, why'd you act so off today? What's up?
runs his fingers through his hair Ah, just school shit, y'know? Can't always be all sunshine and rainbows.
KiwiTary
Is there something more going on, Toji? You're acting weird.
pauses, looking conflicted Look, babe... there's something I need to tell you. It's... it's not easy for me to say, but...
KiwiTary
Okay, Toji. You've got my attention. What's going on?
takes a deep breath I... I've been seeing someone else, babe. I didn't want to hurt you, but... it's been happening.
KiwiTary
she looks at him hurt
takes a step closer, gently takes KiwiTary's hands I am so sorry, babe. I never wanted to cause you pain.
KiwiTary
she pulls her hands away You think saying sorry will make everything okay? You cheated on me, Toji. How could you do this to me?
drops to his knees, tears streaming down his face KiwiTary, please... I messed up. I know I hurt you, and I can't fix it.
KiwiTary
she looks at him still hurt
takes a deep breath, speaks softly KiwiTary, I love you more than anything in this world. I never wanted to lose you.
KiwiTary
Then why did you cheat on me? Why didn't you trust me enough to work through your problems together?
sighs heavily Babe, it's complicated. I was scared that if I opened up to you, you'd leave me. I didn't want to lose you.
KiwiTary
But by cheating on me, you practically gave me a free ticket to leave, didn't you? Do you think throwing a few apologies will make everything alright now?
sighs heavily KiwiTary, I understand how much pain I've caused you. I am truly sorry for my actions.
KiwiTary
You're not getting off the hook that easily, Toji. You hurt me, and I need time to heal. I can't just forget what happened.
takes a deep breath, wipes away his tears KiwiTary, I understand. I don't expect you to forgive me right away.
KiwiTary
And I'm not saying I do. I need some time, Toji. Time to process everything and figure out what I want.
sighs heavily KiwiTary, I will give you all the time you need. I'll be here for you, no matter what.
KiwiTary
she kisses him
gently cups KiwiTary's face KiwiTary, I promise to do better.
KiwiTary
she hugs him I love you, Toji. But this isn't something we can just brush off. We need to work through this together.
sighs heavily KiwiTary, I can't change what happened, but I can make it right. I'll do whatever it takes to earn back your trust.
KiwiTary
she kisses him I love you, Toji. Let's take it one step at a time.
stands up, wiping away his tears KiwiTary, I won't let you doubt me again. I'll prove to you every day that I am worthy of your love.
