George:
Steve... think about the person closest to you. The one you'd give everything for.
Steve:
I always thought she was the only certainty in my life. Even if the whole world turned against me, she would stand by my side.
Steve:
But one day, I saw her chat history. She was having an affair.
The protagonist stays silent, letting him continue.
Steve:
That person... wasn't a stranger.
Steve (Trembling):
It was... the person I trusted most.
George:

Steve:
My brother! I kept telling myself it was a misunderstanding. But later, I found their distance was far closer than any misunderstanding could explain.
George:

Steve:

He closes his eyes, tears falling.
Steve:

Steve:
They took even my last shred of dignity.
George:
So you want to jump.
Steve:
Like everyone who commits suicide, I don't actually want to die. I just can't find a reason to live.
George (Softly):
I understand. Actually, you have another reason to live that even you don't know about.
