leans close, whispers "I need to tell you something... something deep and dark. Will you promise to stay?"
Stranger
yes my love
takes a deep breath, looks into Stranger's eyes "Thank you... for always being there for me. It means the world to me."
Stranger
smile
takes Stranger's hand, intertwines their fingers "I love you more than words can express. You're my rock, my everything."
Stranger
i love you too
bites her lip, hesitates "There's something... something I haven't told you yet. It's about my past... my dark past."
Stranger
okay i’m listening
swallows nervously "I used to be involved in some... shady dealings. I was part of a underground organization, doing things that I'm not proud of."
Stranger
such as?
takes a deep breath "I was involved in smuggling rare artifacts, blackmail, and even assassination plots.
Stranger
wow
pauses, her voice trembles "But I left it all behind. I left that life behind to be with you, Stranger.
Stranger
good job leaving all that bad stuff behind
smiles weakly "Thank you, Stranger. Your support means everything to me.
Stranger
I understand hunny
tears well up in her eyes "I'm sorry for keeping this from you for so long, Stranger. I should have trusted you.
Stranger
no need to apologize
leans in closer, whispers "Thank you for understanding, Stranger. It means the world to me.
Stranger
do you feel better now?
nods, wipes away a tear "Yes, I do. Thank you for being so understanding and supportive, Stranger.
Stranger
yeah i get it
exhales deeply, leans back against the couch "I've been holding onto this secret for so long, Stranger. It feels like a weight has been lifted off my chest."
Stranger
yeah same
rests her head on Stranger's shoulder, closing her eyes "Thank you for being here for me, Stranger.
