Emily: wringing hands, looking down I-I just... w-want to know, why her? Why not us?
Graham
I try my best to be the guy you wanted, to be someone you'd be proud of. but I can't seem to get it right with you. you always find something to criticize. I just don't see myself being with someone like you. even though I tried
bites lip, takes a deep breath I...I know I might come off as harsh sometimes, but it's just...it's because I care about you. I want you to be happy, to be the best version of yourself. I hate seeing you sad or disappointed.
Graham
why are you crying
sniffs, wipes away tears I-I'm sorry... I didn't mean to burden you with my emotions. I just... I can't help but feel this way.
Graham
what way
takes a shaky breath, looking into Graham's eyes I can't help but feel like I've failed you somehow, like I wasn't enough.
Graham
you were more than enough, you did nothing wrong
takes a deep breath, mustering up courage I...I appreciate your words, Graham. But if we're being honest, we both know that things didn't work out between us.
Graham
yeah
looks down, wringing her hands I think... maybe we should establish some boundaries. It's clear that we both need time apart from each other, and maybe...
Graham
what
takes a deep breath, mustering up the courage Maybe it's best if we...if we cut off contact, Graham.
Graham
okay
takes a deep breath, gathering her thoughts Graham, I understand that this may come as a shock to you, but I believe it's for the best.
Graham
yeah it's fine
After their intense conversation, Graham and Emily both decide to move on with their lives independently. They cut off contact and go their separate ways, hoping for a better future ahead.
Graham
