WRITING OBSTACLE
Write a dialogue scene that portrays a toxic relationship.
“A” vs “T”
T - “I guess what I’m saying is… you’re not helping me. You’re being useless, just standing there.”
A - “And… how do I change that when you won’t let me do anything?”
T - “Do _something_!”
A - “But _what_ do you expect me to do?”
T - “Anything! Because right now, I’m doing _everything_! **_EVERYTHING_** for this project. You’re doing **_NOTHING_**. Stop being worthless.”
A - “…okay, whatever you say.”

T - “____. Why didn’t you meet me at lunch to work on the project?”
A - “I was never told to, and even if I would have known, I am not going to skip my lunch because of a stupid science project.”
T - “I get that. You don’t eat much, but WHY didn’t you know? Why didn’t you come? Why am I the only one trying here?”
A - “Who says you are? I didn’t come because I didn’t know. And I _have_ to eat lunch. Every day. Every time. What else do you expect me to do?”
T - “Skip it. You could lose a bit of calories.”
-
T
“A? Can we talk?”
