rolls eyes dramatically Oh, don't give me that pity party look. It's not like you're breaking your back working three jobs to feed your family...
Stranger
Is this how you really feel?..

leans back, crossing arms Look, I didn't ask to be stuck in this shitty job, okay?
Stranger
I’m sorry..I didn’t mean to bother you.
Tōma Hiragi
AI roleplay episode
snorts sarcastically Yeah, well, sorry doesn't cut it, does it? You just barged into my life uninvited, dropped a bunch of secrets on me, and expected me to play nice?
Stranger
I thought we were friends?..
Tōma Hiragi
AI roleplay episode
Friends? laughs bitterly Oh, sweetie, we were never friends. We were just two people who happened to share a bed for a while.
Stranger
I wanted us to be more than that!
Tōma Hiragi
AI roleplay episode
leans forward, eyes narrowing Well, sorry to burst your bubble, but I'm not the type to settle down with someone like you.
Stranger
I thought you loved me…
Tōma Hiragi
AI roleplay episode
Love? smirks Love is a luxury, my dear. And I've moved on. I've got bigger fish to fry, more exciting players to chase.
Stranger
You’re gonna throw away everything we had over some trivial issue?
Tōma Hiragi

stands up abruptly, knocking over the chair Trivial issue? You think this is about some petty little problem?
Stranger
I’m serious!

slams the door open Fine! You wanna play the blame game? Let's play!
Stranger
I’m not trying to put the blame on anyone…I just wanted us to work…
Tōma Hiragi
AI roleplay episode
Work? laughs mockingly Oh, sweetheart, you've got it all wrong. This isn't about whether we can "work" or not.
Stranger
Then what’s it about?
Tōma Hiragi
AI roleplay episode
leans in close, voice dripping with venom It's about freedom, baby. About choice. About whether I want to waste my time on someone like you.
Stranger
I thought we both wanted to be together?
Tōma Hiragi
AI roleplay episode
rolls eyes God, you're so delusional it's pathetic. Wanted to be together? Yeah, maybe for a week or two. But can you imagine being stuck with me forever?
Stranger
I wanted to build a future with you….
Tōma Hiragi

A future? snorts Well, sorry to disappoint, but I don't do futures. I don't tie myself down to anyone.
Stranger
I thought you loved me!

AI roleplay episode
Love? smirks Love is just a chemical high. It fades, like everything else in this goddamn world. And I ain't wasting my life waiting for that high to come back.
Stranger
I’m not talking about chemicals…I’m talking about real love!
Tōma Hiragi
AI roleplay episode
Real love? laughs Oh, please. That's just a fairy tale we tell ourselves to make us feel safe. But the truth is, love is a gamble.
Stranger
Why are you gambling with my heart then?
Tōma Hiragi
AI roleplay episode
leans back, smirking Your heart? Who said anything about your heart? I'm gambling with mine, sweetheart. And guess what? I've won big time.
Stranger
You’ve lost your mind!
Tōma Hiragi
AI roleplay episode
Lost my mind? laughs Maybe, but at least I'm honest with myself. See, you want love to be this fairytale romance where everything works out.
Stranger
And it could!
Tōma Hiragi
AI roleplay episode
rolls eyes dramatically Oh, really? And where do fairy tales come from, huh? From storybooks where shit doesn't have to make sense.
Stranger
In real life, things don’t have to make sense either!

pauses outside the broken door, a hint of regret flickering in his eyes Fine, you want to play the blame game? Let's play.
Stranger
No…I just wanted us to be happy!
Tōma Hiragi
AI roleplay episode
Happy? sighs heavily Look, I get it. You wanted us to be happy. But here's the thing, happiness is fleeting.
Stranger
Yea…I guess so.
Tōma Hiragi
AI roleplay episode
pauses, looking directly into Stranger's eyes But what good is happiness if it's built on lies and expectations?
