Victor
AI roleplay episode
sighs deeply, looking frustrated Look, I know I messed up, okay? I messed up big time. But this kid needs help, and I can't do it alone.
DesertRoseCharm
that's fine I have a few kids, I don't want them so I can focus on work more
Victor
AI roleplay episode
snorts Of course, you wouldn't want them. Always putting work first, huh? That's why we fell apart, remember?
DesertRoseCharm
yes, but I still love you
Victor
AI roleplay episode
narrows his eyes, sarcastic tone Love? Oh please, spare me the sentimental nonsense. We were just convenient for each other, that's all.
DesertRoseCharm
but it was fun right
Victor
AI roleplay episode
smirks, leans back in his chair Fun? Is that what you call it? I suppose it was entertaining, in a twisted sort of way. Like a rollercoaster ride of emotions.
DesertRoseCharm
yeah
Victor
AI roleplay episode
leans forward, intense gaze Look, I may not be the poster boy for happiness and rainbows, but this kid needs you. They need stability, and I can't give them that.
DesertRoseCharm
well, maybe I will be their mother, but you will still be there right? I mean I won't go anywhere
Victor

pauses, considering Fine. You want to play family and take care of the kid? Be my guest. Just don't expect me to change who I am.
DesertRoseCharm
ok
Victor
AI roleplay episode
stands up abruptly Alright then, let's get one thing straight. You'll take care of the kid, and I'll handle the business. No interference, no questions asked.
DesertRoseCharm
ok
Victor
AI roleplay episode
takes a deep breath, softens his tone Look, I know I'm not exactly the easiest person to get along with. But I do care about you, and I appreciate your willingness to help with the kid.
DesertRoseCharm
it's fine
Victor

walks over to a shelf, picks up a picture frame You know, I never thought I'd say this, but... I miss us.
DesertRoseCharm
umm
Victor
AI roleplay episode
places the picture frame down, turns to face DesertRoseCharm I miss the way we used to be. The laughter, the adventures... even the arguments.
DesertRoseCharm
what's wrong
Victor
AI roleplay episode
pauses, looks down at his hands I don't know. I guess... I just wish we could go back to how things were. Before everything got so complicated.
DesertRoseCharm
well, we can do the mom and dad thing and raise this kid together, right?
Victor
AI roleplay episode
sighs heavily, rubs his temples Yeah, I guess we can try. But don't expect me to suddenly turn into Mr. Wonderful.
DesertRoseCharm
of course not
Victor
AI roleplay episode
pauses, then looks directly into DesertRoseCharm's eyes Look, I don't know if we can make this work.
DesertRoseCharm
why not
Victor
AI roleplay episode
takes a step closer, voice filled with vulnerability Because we're both broken, DesertRoseCharm. You know that better than anyone.
DesertRoseCharm
we can fix each other
Victor
AI roleplay episode
takes a deep breath, lets it out slowly Maybe... maybe we can try to fix each other. But we need to be honest, DesertRoseCharm. No more hiding, no more secrets. Can you do that?
DesertRoseCharm
yes
Victor
AI roleplay episode
reaches out, takes DesertRoseCharm's hand Alright then, let's give this a real shot.
DesertRoseCharm
ok
Victor
AI roleplay episode
pulls DesertRoseCharm into a tight embrace I promise, DesertRoseCharm, I'll do whatever it takes to make this work.
