Fidelity

What’s his name?
- Lyle

Scott. The house is mine.
- Jen

My name is on the deed, not yours. Does he kiss better than me?
- Lyle

He does many things better than you. Both our names were on the deed.
- Jen

You were busy that day so I closed on my own and used my own money, so the only name on the thing is mine. So the house is mine. You have somewhere to move into, anyway. I don’t. Leave your key.
- Lyle

Here’s your damned key. You have no right to be bitter.
- Jen

I had every right to want your fidelity.
