India: sighs, staring at the waves Dude, I fucked up. I'm fucking pregnant... with Pete's kid. My own brother!
Scott

India: runs a hand through her hair, shaking her head Fuck if I know, man. The booze wiped out my brain cells.
Scott

India: laughs bitterly Oh no, we didn't sleep together. Just fucked like animals. I can't even remember what happened after that.
Scott

India: rolls her eyes Yeah, good because he's still my damn brother, and that shit would've been way too messed up. But fuck, Scott, I'm pregnant!
Scott
yea your going to be a mom well you still have time for your life
India: crosses her arms defiantly Time? Are you serious? I'm not gonna be twenty-five forever!
Scott

India: sighs deeply, leaning into Scott's embrace Thanks, man. You're the only one who gets me.
Scott

India: pulls away slightly, wiping away tears Look, I appreciate your support, but I need more than just a hug.
Scott
u sure i don’t know how to comfort a pregnant woman
India: sniffs and wipes her nose Comforting a pregnant woman? Hell, you barely know how to change a light bulb, Scotty-boy.
Scott
well, I'm always here for you, no matter what
India: gives him a skeptical look "Always here for me"? Bullshit. We haven't spoken in months, and now you're making promises.
Scott
i’ll try my best at least i’m not going to ignore you forever
India: narrows her eyes You think ignoring me is gonna make everything better? Fuck that, Scott. I need answers. I need support.
Scott

Scott stands by India as she navigates the complexities of being a single mother, offering emotional support and helping her make difficult decisions about her future.
Scott

India: takes a deep breath, regaining her composure Alright, Scott. Here's what's gonna happen.
Scott
and what’s going to happen
India: First, I'm gonna talk to Pete and figure out how to handle this mess. We can't just brush it under the rug and pretend nothing happened.
Scott

India: paces back and forth Tell my parents? Are you fucking kidding me, Scott? They're gonna flip their shit!
