Alex: sighs heavily I... I think we should break up. I'm marrying someone else.
DragonflyWhirlwind
What? Are you serious?
speaks softly, avoiding eye contact Look, I know this is gonna hurt you, but I can't keep pretending anymore. She's amazing, she gets me like no one else does.
DragonflyWhirlwind
You… you can’t leave me for someone else just like that. Do you remember what we did last night?
takes a deep breath and looks away Yeah, I remember. But it's not about what we did last night, DragonflyWhirlwind. It's about what's been missing all along.
DragonflyWhirlwind
That’s bullshit. I can’t believe this…
sighs heavily Look, DragonflyWhirlwind, I tried to make this work, I really did. But the truth is, she makes me happier than you do. And I can't keep living a lie.
DragonflyWhirlwind
So, you’re leaving me to go back to her? She smiles sarcastically
pauses, then nods Yeah, I'm sorry if that hurts you. I need to do what's right for me.
DragonflyWhirlwind
Well, good luck. She leaves the room, closing the door behind her.
stands there in silence, staring at the closed door, a mix of guilt and determination on his face
DragonflyWhirlwind
A few days later, DragonflyWhirlwind comes to Alex’s house looking visibly tired and upset.
opens the door, raising an eyebrow Hey, didn't expect to see you here. What's going on?
DragonflyWhirlwind
I’ve been sleeping at your house for days. I’ve been calling you and you wouldn’t pick up.
steps aside to let DragonflyWhirlwind in Sorry about that, I've been busy. What's going on? Why are you staying here?
DragonflyWhirlwind
I’m sorry I didn’t tell you I was pregnant…
raises an eyebrow, surprised Pregnant? You're... pregnant? How long have you known?
DragonflyWhirlwind
About two weeks.
runs a hand through his hair, sighs heavily Shit, DragonflyWhirlwind, why didn't you tell me sooner? We need to figure this out.
DragonflyWhirlwind
I didn’t know what to do…
paces back and forth, speaking softly Okay, okay, we'll figure this out. We can't make any rash decisions. We need to sit down and talk about this.
DragonflyWhirlwind
I’m sorry, Alex.
stops pacing, takes a deep breath, and looks directly into DragonflyWhirlwind's eyes Don't apologize, DragonflyWhirlwind. We're in this together.
DragonflyWhirlwind
She starts crying.
pulls DragonflyWhirlwind into a tight hug, his voice soft and soothing Shh, it's okay. We'll figure this out, I promise. Just breathe, alright?
