Stranger
New? You mean getting rejected by every woman in town?

with renewed energy Archimann, I've been thinking. Maybe it's time for me to make a fresh start. I've been working on a new project – a wine label just for you.
Stranger
A wine label? For me? That's... unexpected.
excitedly pulls out a bottle of wine with a custom label Check this out! It's my way of saying sorry for everything.
Stranger

Stranger
But? But you broke my heart, Lucas. Why should I trust you again?

Your actions were more than wrong, Lucas. They were cruel. Do you even understand that?

Stranger
I don't know if I can ever forgive you, Lucas. But... maybe... if you truly mean it, we can try.
voice trembling with emotion Thank you, Archimann. That means the world to me. I promise, I'll do whatever it takes to earn your forgiveness.
Stranger
sighs Alright, Lucas. Let's take it one step at a time. But if you lie to me again, I'm walking away. Do you understand?
gently squeezes Archimann's hands I understand, Archimann. No more lies, I promise. We'll rebuild our trust together, step by step.
Stranger
