The accusation hit without warning.
No proof. No pause.
Just one question that could unravel everything.
1. The Charge
Bethany stormed into the room, eyes locked on Larry.
Bethany: “You gave Sharra a car. You gifted her a car, didn’t you?”
Larry looked up, stunned.
Larry: “What? No. Bethany, I didn’t give her anything like that.”
The denial came fast—but not fast enough to stop what was already building.

2. Pressure Mounts
Bethany crossed her arms, pacing.
Bethany: “Then how does she have it? Where did it come from?”
Larry stood, words colliding on the way out.
Larry: “I don’t know. I swear, I don’t.”
She leaned in, voice dropping.
Bethany: “Don’t lie to me.”
Larry rubbed his face, frustration creeping in.
Larry: “Check the paperwork. Ask anyone. I didn’t do this.”
But the room didn’t feel convinced.
3. The Message
Bethany’s phone buzzed.
She read aloud—slowly.
Bethany: “Brooke says the car’s in Sharra’s driveway. Paid for by you.”
Larry froze.
Larry: “That’s… that’s not possible.”
Bethany didn’t wait.
Bethany: “Then explain it.”
The silence between them felt loud.
4. Calling the Source
Larry grabbed his phone, pacing.
Larry (into phone): “Brooke… how did Sharra get that car?”
He stopped mid-step.
Larry: “She what?”
Bethany watched from the doorway, arms tight.
Larry lowered the phone, shaken.
Larry: “She didn’t buy it. She arranged something with the dealer. I didn’t co-sign. I didn’t pay.”
Bethany’s eyes narrowed.
5. Doubt Lingers
Bethany: “Then why does your name show up anywhere near it?”
Larry hesitated.
Larry: “I don’t know. A mistake. A mix-up. I’ll fix it.”
Bethany turned away.
Bethany: “Every time it’s ‘a mistake.’”
He stepped closer.
Larry: “Please. Believe me.”
She finally looked at him—uncertain, but listening.
6. The Next Move
Bethany grabbed her purse.
Bethany: “I’m talking to Brooke. If this isn’t a mistake…”
She didn’t finish.
Larry nodded, tense.
Larry: “I understand.”
Bethany walked out, phone already in hand—determined to find the truth.
Larry stood alone, staring at the floor.
Nothing was resolved.
Everything was at risk.
