Linda: slamming a photo on the table Did you know it was your father cheating all along?! Not me!
MountainEcho
what should we do with this?
grinning devilishly Oh, we're not going to do anything with these photos. Instead, we're going to use them as leverage.
MountainEcho
ok
starts dialing a number on her phone We're going to confront your father with these photos and make sure he knows exactly what he's lost.
MountainEcho
hey dad. I found something interesting on social media
leans in closer to the phone, listening intently Hello, darling. What did you find? Show me what you've got. Dad: voice trembling What the hell is going on, LemonadeContentment? Is that... is that really happening?
MountainEcho
yeah. seems like you’ve been having a lot of secret meetings together
laughs sarcastically Secret meetings? Don't flatter yourself, you piece of shit!
MountainEcho
you two look pretty cozy together
throws her phone onto the table, glaring at the screen Look at this shit, Dad! You think you can hide your dirty little secrets from us?
MountainEcho
you want proof that I’m not making this up? I took the pictures myself
grabs the incriminating photos from the table and shoves them in front of MountainEcho's father's face Behold, you sorry excuse for a man!
MountainEcho
daddy how could you cheat on mommy?
leans in closer, her voice dripping with venom You want to know how you could have cheated on your wife, you piece of shit?
MountainEcho
you want to know how you could have ruined our family
slams her hand on the table, her voice filled with rage You think you can justify your actions with excuses, huh?
MountainEcho
it’s not excuses. it’s facts
In a fit of rage, MountainEcho's father attempts to slap Linda, but she quickly grabs his hand and twists it behind his back.
MountainEcho
daddy. try to talk to mom again and there will be consequences
releases her grip on MountainEcho's father's arm, taking a step back You heard her, Father. The next time you even think about disrespecting her, you'll regret it. Understand?
MountainEcho
daddy don’t try to talk to mom again. if you do. I’ll make sure you don’t talk again
smirks, crossing her arms You better believe it, Father. LemonadeContentment means business. Now get out of our sight before I change my mind.
MountainEcho
bye daddy
watches as MountainEcho's father storms out of the room, muttering under his breath Good riddance. You don't deserve to call that wonderful woman your mother anyway.
MountainEcho
mom are you ok?
takes a deep breath, her voice steady and determined I'm not okay, LemonadeContentment. I'm furious. But you know what?
MountainEcho
no
clenches her fists, her voice filled with determination We're going to make sure your father pays for what he's done.
MountainEcho
yes we are
grabs MountainEcho's hand tightly First things first, we're going to gather evidence. We'll show everyone the truth and make sure your father can't get away with this.
MountainEcho
you mean divorce him?
nods, a mischievous glint in her eyes Divorce him, expose his lies, and make sure he never hurts anyone else again.
MountainEcho
ok
stands up abruptly, her voice filled with urgency Alright, LemonadeContentment, time to take action!
MountainEcho
wait mom
pauses, her eyes narrowing with determination What is it, darling? We don't have time to waste!
MountainEcho
you’re gonna leave me alone?
rolls her eyes, scoffing Alone? Of course not, LemonadeContentment! This is our fight, our battle against your treacherous father.
