[Chloe's words have much more of an effect than Max thought they would. She finds herself fighting back tears, visibly, sniffing and wiping her eyes. She's not sure she can ever stop hating herself. But hearing Chloe say those things? Those reassurances? The very opposite of the things she's been terrified Chloe might say to her, that fear she's been carrying around for years?
It seems so impossible. But maybe she can try. Maybe she can try to feel better about everything she's done. Maybe she can try to believe Chloe.
She forces herself to look at the girl.]
You're my number one priorty, Chloe. I'm... I'm going to choose you every time. I swear. I love you too much for anything else, you dork...
[She takes a deep breath.] You are an amazing person, Chloe Price. I don't know why everyone's so blind to it all the time. You deserve so much better. And I promise I'll give you that... as much as I can. I'll try. I'll... I'll take care of you. If you want me to.
[She seems to be falling apart a little on the screen, losing her fight against crying.]
Can- can you come home? Or I can go there. I want to... to see you.
