Jake: smirking Yo, whaaat you doin' here, nerd? leans in, trying to look cool
Stranger
Hey Jake! You may have the most balls in the game, but I got something else to show off! The user turns around and lifts their shirt, revealing that they might be pregnant.
blinks in shock, stammers What the fuck?! Are you serious? You're... you're pregnant? And it's mine?
Stranger
Well, mathematically speaking, it's about 87 percent likely! But I ain't got much proof, otherwise I'd be down on my knees begging you to marry me already!
runs a hand through his hair, frowning Wait, this can't be happening... How could I be such an idiot?
Stranger
Uhm, maybe because you were bullying the one person who could have taken you down? Just a random guess!
takes a deep breath, looks determined Alright, alright. Look, I messed up, okay? I didn't think this would happen.
Stranger
So now what? Do we try to make a baby together, or do we tell everyone and go our separate ways? Or... do we do something else entirely!?
paces back and forth, thinking We can't keep this a secret, man. We gotta figure out what's best for both of us.
Stranger
It's not like we really have a choice in the matter, anyway. The cat's outta the bag, as they say! Now we just gotta decide how we're gonna handle this whole mess!
stops pacing, looks directly at Stranger Alright, listen up. We're gonna sit down and talk about this.
Stranger
Talk about what exactly? Do we start with'so, who's the father?' or what?
sighs First, we need to figure out if I'm actually the dad. We'll get a DNA test and then go from there.
Stranger
Alright, let's do it! We'll figure out if you're the dad, and then we can plan our next steps!
takes out his phone and starts searching for a nearby clinic that offers DNA tests Alright, I know a place where we can get this test done.
Stranger
Well, dang, Jake! Looks like you're more resourceful than I gave you credit for! Where's this clinic? Let's get this show on the road already!
sends the address to Stranger Alright, here's the address. We're gonna go there tomorrow and get this over with.
Stranger
Alright, let's roll! We'll find out if you're the dad and then take it from there!
pauses, looks serious But even if the test confirms that I'm the father, I want you to know that I'll take responsibility.
Stranger
I appreciate that, Jake! Let's see what the future holds for us, then!
looks determined We're gonna make this work, no matter what. We'll figure it out together.
Stranger
Yeah, together. That sounds nice. Together.
takes a deep breath, looks into Stranger's eyes Look, I've been a real jerk to you all these years. I've bullied you, made your life miserable.
Stranger
But yet, here we are. About to have a baby together! Isn't life full of surprises!?
pauses, takes a moment to gather his thoughts But I want to change, Stranger. I want to be a better person for you and our future baby.
Stranger
That's... that's sweet, Jake! I'd sure like to see that! Let's give this new-and-improved Jake a try, shall we?
smiles, reaches out and holds Stranger's hand Thank you for giving me a chance, Stranger. I won't let you down.
Stranger
Here's to new beginnings, then! For you, for me, and for our little bundle of joy!
pulls Stranger into a hug I'm gonna be the best damn dad there is, Stranger. Our kid is gonna have the best role model in their life.
Stranger
Damn straight they will, Jake! You're gonna be amazing, I just know it!
releases Stranger from the hug, looks determined Alright, first things first.
Stranger
Huh, yeah! What's first, Jake?
grabs Stranger's hand and starts walking towards the door First, we're gonna figure out how to tell your parents about the baby.
Stranger
Right. My parents... They're gonna freak out, you know? But we gotta tell 'em the truth, yeah?
nods Yeah, we have to be honest with them. They deserve to know what's going on.
Stranger
Y'know, if we tell my parents, it means I have to face my shit, too... Damn, this is heavy...
gives Stranger a reassuring smile Hey, don't worry about it. We'll face this together. I'll be right there with you every step of the way.
Stranger
Thanks, Jake... I appreciate it. Let's get this over with, then. Let's go talk to my parents.
takes a deep breath, looks determined Alright, Stranger. Let's do this. Let's go and tell your parents the truth.
Stranger
Alright, let's do this! Let's go tell my parents the truth!
starts walking, keeping a close eye on Stranger Remember, we're in this together. We'll face whatever comes our way with courage and honesty.
