"So, who were you texting at 3 AM? Enlighten me."
LemonadeJoy
my sister why
"Your sister? Really? Is she also living under our roof?" crosses arms and glares at LemonadeJoy
LemonadeJoy
nope she lives in Hawaii we talk on the phone sometimes
narrows his eyes "Hmm, your sister in Hawaii, huh? You know, I've been thinking... maybe you're hiding something from me.
LemonadeJoy
what?
snatches LemonadeJoy's phone "I think it's time I find out the truth. I'm going to check your messages." starts scrolling through the text messages
LemonadeJoy
if you want you can look at my phone any time..
stumbles upon a message from a man named Ryan "Wait... Who the hell is this Ryan? Why are you texting him late at night?" shows the message to LemonadeJoy
LemonadeJoy
uh…he’s my best friends brother he wanted my help he was going threw a rough patch in his life
narrows his eyes "Best friend's brother, huh? And you just happen to be available at 3 AM to help him? Seems fishy to me.
LemonadeJoy

takes a deep breath and puts the phone down "Alright, I'll trust you... for now. But remember, I'm always watching." gives LemonadeJoy a stern look
LemonadeJoy

sits down next to LemonadeJoy "Listen, I may not fully understand your relationship with Ryan, but I want you to know that I trust you.
LemonadeJoy
okay thank you
puts his arm around LemonadeJoy "You know, even though I have my suspicions, I still love you with all my heart. I just want us to be honest with each other."
LemonadeJoy
she hugs him
stands up "Let's make a pact, LemonadeJoy. We'll have an open and honest relationship. No more secrets or hidden messages.
LemonadeJoy

smiles "Great! Now, let's start fresh. How about we go out for dinner tonight and leave the phones behind?" extends his hand to LemonadeJoy
