Stacey : -opens door-
Jonas : Baby...
Stacey : Hm? Where have I seen this exact scene before?
Jonas : I'm sorry....

Stacey
Jonas apologizes with a bouquet of roses. He always does this.

Stacey : Come in I guess.
Jonas : -walks in- I promise you I've been so busy.
Stacey : We have to talk Jonas. It's very serious.
Jonas : Don't make decisions yet...
Stacey : No it's not that.
Jonas : Then?
Stacey : You and I haven't been the greatest lately.
Jonas : We can make things work.
Stacey : Jonas, you don't give me the time I need. You don't give me the affection I want. I've felt so alone..
Jonas : I'm sorry...
Stacey : You know, when I feel sad, I go out and get drunk thinking the alcohol is the solution!
Jonas : ...
Stacey : On Wednesday, I got so drunk because of you, that I ended up in someone else's bed!
Jonas : The fuck are you saying?!
Stacey : You heard me!! I know it was wrong but it was also your fault!! If you'd be with me I wouldn't be seeking affection elsewhere!!
Jonas : You're trying to justify yourself?!
Stacey : No! I'm telling you how things are!!
Jonas : What I'm hearing is you blaming me for the shit you are doing!!
Stacey : Because you pushed me to that point!!
Jonas : Stacey, I love you. I can forgive you for that but promise me things are going to change.
Stacey : You, need to promise me that things are going to change. You're the busy one. Not me.
Jonas : I promise I'm going to do everything in my hands to make more time for you baby.
Stacey : I have to go or I'll be late.
Jonas : Where are you going?
Stacey : Work?
Jonas ; I thought you worked from home.
Stacey : If you'd keep up with me, you'd know what I'm up to. That says a lot "babe."
Jonas : You know I've been busy.
Stacey : We'll talk tonight. -walks out-
