I didn’t actually cook but I did bring pizza and cheese sticks. And wings and these little chocolate cake things they had at checkout.
You’re not responsible if you don’t want to be, Jack. You don’t have to do anything you don’t want to and I’d never hold it against you either.
I don’t need you to convince me about what I want to do, Stella.
I’m not trying to but I want you to know you have options.
If I had to do this with anyone, it’d be you and… I don’t know if it’s selfish but I’m glad it was you. I wouldn’t be as sure about keeping it if it wasn’t.
I don’t want options. I can figure out how we can do this. I just need some time.
We have time and I have good insurance from work and savings in case anything happens. It’s not so bad.
I’m not going to be useless. I’ll figure it out.
Jack, you’re not useless. What are you talking about?
I’m not running. I’m not leaving because I’m mad. I need to go sort things out.
I’ll be here if you need me.
I’ll be back soon.
