Stranger
she opens the door
grabs her arm What is happening here? Why won't you answer me? Is there something you're hiding?
Stranger
no…she lets out it’s my mom, she always calls me at this time…
narrows his eyes Are you sure about that? How do I know you're not lying to me? Show me proof, now!
Stranger
she shows him her phone where her moms name is showing who she called last
sighs, releases her arm Alright, I apologize. I guess I let my paranoia get the best of me. But promise me you'll be careful, okay?
Stranger
ok
puts his arm around her Look, I know I overreacted, but I just want to protect you, okay? Just promise me you'll always be honest with me.
Stranger
I promise she kisses his cheek
smiles and pulls her into a tight hug Thank you for understanding. I love you so much, and I don't want anything to come between us.
Stranger
