Did you lose your job?

Lauctici
Why?
Samantha

voice trembling I think... I think I'm scared of getting hurt again. After we broke up, I just closed off a part of myself.
Lauctici
Are you saying that you closed yourself off to love?
Samantha

Why’d you call me if you weren’t gonna open up?
Samantha

Lauctici
And how do you plan on doing that?
Samantha

Samantha

pauses, looks at Lauctici with sad eyes I know things have changed between us, but I really need your support right now. Can you...can you forgive me?

Samantha
AI roleplay episode
sighs, looks down at her hands I understand. It's just... I miss you, Lauctici. I miss the way you used to make me feel safe and loved.

Well, maybe if you didn’t feel the need to push everyone away, you wouldn’t be in this situation
Samantha
AI roleplay episode
