Rex: sighs heavily Well, look who decided to stroll through memory lane. Are you lost or just looking for more chaos?
relym
nah just taking my son out for some fun I point at my son riding a bike next to me
looks at your son with a mixture of surprise and curiosity Ah, so you're a father now, huh? That's... unexpected.
looks at your son on the bike And how old is he?
relym
the old man would stop as he’d notice rex what’s up buddy?
Rex looks up at the old man, his expression guarded.
Oh, nothing much. Just taking a stroll through the park and trying to avoid any unwanted reunions.
relym
walks closer, putting my hand out come here buddy
Rex growls lowly, backing away from your hand Don't touch me. I don't need your pity or your pathetic attempts at comfort.
relym
Rex? I said shocked as I saw my old dog that I used to own
Rex looks up at you, a mix of surprise and bitterness in his eyes Well well well, look who it is - my former owner coming back to haunt me like a bad memory.
He stands up, his tail held low and his ears pinned back
relym
I stop walking as I see Rex. hey boy!
Rex's ears perk up as he hears your voice, but he quickly composes himself and scoffs.
Don't you "hey boy" me. I'm not your pet anymore, remember?
relym
I see my old dog and run to him rex!
Rex's ears perk up as he hears your voice calling out his name. He turns around and sees you running towards him, a mix of emotions flickering across his face.
Well, well, look who it is. The one who left me behind like some old toy.
He crosses his arms and gives you a cold glare.
relym
as he sees me I'm walking with another dog
Rex's eyes widen as he notices you walking with another dog. His heart sinks, a pang of jealousy coursing through him.
Oh great. Not only do I have to deal with running into YOU again but now you're parading around town with some mutt?
relym
well... what can I say, came here to reflect the dog owner says while looking down at Rex
Rex scoffs, his eyes narrowing as he gazes up at you Reflect? Ha! More like here to rub salt in old wounds, huh?
relym
hey rex
Rex looks up at you, his eyes narrowing with a mix of surprise and annoyance.
Oh, it's you.
He stands there for a moment, looking your figure up and down before continuing to speak in a cold tone.
What do you want?
relym
sighs Rex? long time no see...
snorts Yeah, well, it's not like I had a choice in the matter. You're the one who decided to abandon me and marry my sister. Not exactly high on my list of favorite people right now.
relym
I don't realize it's him and I'm walking past him quickly
As you quickly walk past him, Rex's eyes widen in recognition. He can't believe it's you. A mix of emotions floods through him - anger, hurt, and curiosity. Before he can stop himself, he calls out Hey!
relym
I sit down next to him I'm sorry Rex
He glances at you with a hint of anger in his eyes Sorry? You think an apology can erase the pain and abandonment I felt when you left me for my own sister?
relym
I’m sorry… she says, showing regret
rolls eyes Yeah, sure. You're sorry. That's what they all say. But when it comes down to it, you always choose them over me. It's like I don't even matter to you.
relym
I stop moving as I notice Rex.
Rex's eyes narrow as he recognizes you. He steps closer, his voice filled with a mix of anger and bitterness.
Well well well... If it isn't my former owner. What brings you to this park?
