Don’t pretend you don’t know what I’m talking about. I heard that you were involved in getting my mother arrested. Why would you do something like that?
Don’t pretend you don’t know what I’m talking about. I heard that you were involved in getting my mother arrested. Why would you do something like that?
BETHANY:
Listen to me carefully. I did not get your mother arrested. Whatever you heard, you need to understand that I am not responsible for everything that happens in your family.

BETHANY:
That is not fair. You cannot blame me for every problem your family faces. If your mother was arrested, there must be facts behind that decision. You should find out what actually happened before accusing me.

For a moment, Bethany’s expression softens. She understands Dutchess’s concern but refuses to accept responsibility for something she says she did not do.
BETHANY:
I understand that you’re upset. If someone I loved were in trouble, I would want answers too. But coming here and attacking me isn’t going to solve anything.

DUTCHESS:
Then why does it always seem like you’re connected to our problems? First, there’s one situation, then another. Now my mother has been arrested, and I’m supposed to believe you have absolutely nothing to do with it?

Bethany’s eyes widen at the accusation. She cannot believe Dutchess is blaming her for so many different problems.
BETHANY:
You think I have a problem with your entire family? That’s ridiculous. I have my own life, my own responsibilities, and my own problems. The world doesn’t revolve around your family.
