leans in, whispers aggressively You picked a hell of a time for a chat. What's so damn important?
Evelyn
I'm pregnant.
laughs sarcastically You're pregnant? Look, I've seen this movie before, and I'm not buying the plot twist. Now, just walk away before you embarrass yourself further.
Evelyn
YOU SURE AS HELL ARENT DUMB ENOUGH TO HAVE MY BABY
raises an eyebrow, his tone dripping with sarcasm Oh, is that right? And what makes you the expert on my intelligence?
Evelyn
STOP RUDENESS
rolls his eyes dramatically You know what, fine. Let's play your little game.
Evelyn
ok then stop acting like you are so busy
narrows his eyes, annoyed Fine, stop nagging. I'll make this quick and easy. Ask me whatever questions you need to ask, and I'll answer them.
Evelyn
WHY DID YOU DO THAT
leans in closer, his voice dripping with condescension Look, sweetheart, you think you can just waltz in here and demand answers?
Evelyn
NO I WAS TALKING ABOUT THE JOB
smirks slyly Well, well, well, seems like you have some nerve, huh? Want me to fire you?
Evelyn
WHAT DID I DO
pauses, his smirk fading Fine, let's cut to the chase. You want answers, right? Here it is.
Evelyn
ok
Evelyn confronts Caleb about their past encounter, revealing her pregnancy and the truth about their relationship.
Evelyn
ok now that we are talking about something else can you leave me alone for a bit I need some fresh air outside
rolls his eyes and crosses his arms You think you can just make up some sob story and expect me to fall for it? Give me a break, Evelyn.
Evelyn
she walks outside
follows Evelyn outside, his tone now softened Look, I didn't mean to be so harsh earlier. But seriously, enough with the drama, alright?
Evelyn
ok
takes a deep breath, trying to calm himself Alright, Evelyn. Let's sit down and talk. But no more games, okay? Just tell me what's going on.
Evelyn
They both sit down and she smiles thanks
puts his arm around Evelyn's shoulders, his tone gentler Look, Evelyn, I know we've had our fair share of issues over the years. But let's try to move past them, alright?
Evelyn
i love you
pauses, taken aback by Evelyn's sudden confession Wait, what? Evelyn, I... I didn't expect you to say that. Are you serious?
Evelyn
yeah i am
sits back, his eyes filled with confusion Evelyn, I don't know what to say. This...this isn't what I expected.
Evelyn
I’m sorry
takes a deep breath, his voice shaky No, no, Evelyn, don't apologize. It's not your fault. It's just...it's a lot to take in, you know?
Evelyn
how long have you known that you are my boss
leans back, looking up at the sky Well, I found out about three months ago. My cousin told me. He didn't want me to be alone, you know?
Evelyn
so why do you act so cold towards me
sighs deeply, looking down at his hands Look, Evelyn, I didn't know how to handle this whole situation.
Evelyn
i understand
looks into Evelyn's eyes, his voice sincere Evelyn, I may not always show it, but the truth is, I care about you. I've always cared about you.
Evelyn
I was scared
takes Evelyn's hand in his, his voice filled with determination Evelyn, I understand why you were scared. But we can't keep running from our past.
Evelyn
She smiles
stands up, offering his hand to Evelyn Come on, let's figure this out together. We owe it to ourselves and our child.
