Act 2: the emperor’s fault
acknowledgement -
for Rome,
how I wish I could know,
how I wish you could know.
~~~
this was before the fall,
here's a change in pov,
a different way to see,
as the curve ball came along.
~~~~
What am I doing?
I know I need to do this,
But,
Her friends,
No more amends,
Wars?
I don't want to hurt her,
At least you,
One of her friends,
Are my confidant...
Thank god.
Either way,
I'm so done for-
Oh,
An opportunity,
Here it comes.
Thus, this is it.
"So about us..."
No wit,
Full of grit,
I did it.
I hope she knows this isn't her fault.
Don't fall back on it by default.
Wait,
What do you mean?
I saw a chance and I took it.
But,
For me,
Could you check on her please?
What did she say?
This is what she said,
"Yeah I understand,"
"Don't worry about it,"
"Mhm that's fine,"
"It's okay, I understand,"
"Alright, thank you."
It's true...
It's lacking in animation.
She's acting,
Isn't she?
Now,
I'm backtracking,
Playing the conversation again,
With some consultation,
I realized,
I had messed up.
Now you're freaking out on me,
What do you want?
What do you want from me?
Oh,
She...
She wasn't having a good day?
She's... shaking.
She's not okay.
What did I do?
What did I do?
What did I do?
At least she's not mad.
More so sad.
She is always understanding...
I'm sorry this couldn't last.
