What About Us Last Request 19 Unlikely Reasons

-I noticed that. That's why I am being careful with you here.

-...I understand that; in fact it's more of a sensible thing to do.

-Even now when we get to spend some time together, Jerry managed to stay away, stay busy. I feel like...so powerless. Something you probably won't be familiar with. He's running around doing the job you're supposed to be doing.

-Believe me, (sighs)I know what it means to be powerless. To be someone who isn't capable of doing anything for people she admires. I am sorry but I know this as much as you do; you can't stop a person from being a furious hero or incredibly stupid. The morale is only yours to decide. All I can do is...apologise to you.

-Is that so? Then tell me, do you want us to end up like you? What do you think a guy with a five year old should be doing on a day like this? You saw his workplace. He rarely gets a day off.

-Listen both Jerry and Jane should be back anytime now.

-That's your answer?

-(Sighs)Layla you have a life ahead. Don't forget to give yourself a little credit sometime. Jerry is a good guy and, one of the best friends I've ever had although we've just met. He is only one now anyway.

-...

-You know him better, I am sure he trusts you more.

-Give me an answer.

-You know Layla, it's getting late. I gotta go now.

-..Listen Ms. Inspector!

-Selina Johnson.

-Selina huh? Then listen Sel. I love Jerry. I am being myself.

-Yes. I can tell.

-No I don't think you can. Not now. Just promise me that you won't hurt him or worse.

-You don't have to worry about that. I won't let Jane go through anything of that sort. That is the only answer I have for you now.

-How could you be so sure about it?

-Because I have someone to protect too! Because there's not a single f.u.c.king day in my life without regrets, guilt, sorrow consuming me...I am not even welcomed by anyone, not without giving something in return.

-(Sighs)

-But that man of yours didn't take any advantage, didn't force himself on me when I was most vulnerable. Instead I am the one who caused him nothing but trouble. Jane was no different from her Dad. I owe both of them. It's everything you will get from me.

-...I won't say I know your side of this story. But what you said about those two persons were true.

-Yeah. Can I leave now?

-Wait! Sel? Listen! I know you're in a hurry. I have heard what happened at the bar. Selina please?

-I don't want to waste any more of our time. We've talked enough, it's getting annoying.

-Sorry. Could you give me your number? Let's meet up again. Two of us?
