Between Two Lovers - Part 2


Simon: Are you completely sure?
Holly: I did a home test last night and it was positive. Now what I'm going to do?


Simon: You'll come with me to Island Paradise after my graduation, then we'll see what happens.
Holly: Are you serious?
Simon: Sure, we're in this together. I won't leave you alone, I promise.


“I won't leave you alone". Those words sounded great but - what about Sarah? There wasn't nowhere to run now, Simon would have to tell her the whole truth.


And he did. He told Sarah that she had been dating someone else, and that 'someone' was pregnant now. As it was to be expected, Sarah didn't take it well.


Sarah: Who is she, do I know her?
Simon: Yes, you know her well.
Sarah: It isn't Holly, is it?
Simon: Yes, it's her. I'm sorry.


Sarah: Wow, I should've known. All those nights I found her in your room 'studying'. And she said she was my friend, what a traitor!
Simon: Don't blame her, she doesn't even know we're together.
Sarah: Why didn't you tell her? So she would sleep with you?
Simon: Sarah, please understand, this isn't something I planned. It just happened.


Sarah: “It just happened". I should've known that you'd come out with something like that, after all you're your father's son.
Simon: Leave my Dad out of this.  I was a coward, I admit it, but it was never my intention to hurt you.


 Sarah: But you did! And I'll never forget you. You'll pay for this, I swear.

 

Simon:  What the hell is wrong with me? I judge my father for his behavior, but I continue to make his same mistakes: divorce, cheating, all this torn between to lovers thing... I don't want to be a carbon copy of him, I have to break the circle and do what's right.
