George: That's not fair Max. I think you know your sister really well, but telling me to stay away from her? You can't do that
Max: I can and I will
George: Why? Why would you do that?
Max: Because I don't want to see her broken again! Not like last year, not like last night!
George: But was I the cause of either of it? No!
Max: Don't challenge me George
George: I know that she moved abroad for a semester just to get away from him. I know that he was obsessive about her and put her into a lot of problems. But what does that have to do with me?
*Max stays silent*
George: Exactly! Nothing!
Max: You don't understand...
George: Oh I do Max! I know you'll always try to pretect her. Especially after what Liam did to her. And trust me, I understand why. I hate to see her lost like that as well, but I don't agree with you telling me to stay away
Max: But you don't know what he put her through, huh? The terrible things he did to her? She still hasn't processed all of it
George: Then let me help her process it
Max: No George. She won't tell you the real stories. I know her. She'll try to keep strong and surpress all of it
George: Then what happened that's so bad she thinks she can't tell me...?
*Max swallows and looks away*
George: Please Max, help me understand what's going on...
Max: He... Liam tried to rape her...
*George widens his eyes, because of the shock*
Max: But she somehow managed to stop him. Only he didn't agree with it... So he beat her rotten... You have no idea how long it took her to recover from that... She still hasn't processed it, even though she will let you believe she did
George whispers: My word...
Max: He only showed his face once and the horrible flashbacks are back. The panick attacks. You don't want to know how many times she woke up this night, screaming because of a nightmare... That's why she needs space. She needs time to fix her own problems
George: I... I understand.... Give me one talk with her and I'll give her all the space of the world she needs... I won't contact her then until she's ready...
Max: Thank you George... I'll text you when we're back at the hotel okay...? I'll let you two talk then
George: Thanks for telling me Max...
*Max nods sadly and walks away*
*George stays behind and puts his hands on top of his head*
*He stares in front of him*
*He knows he has to give you space... Even when he doesn't want to let you go...*
