Mari (Mariam)

Mariam “Mari” is your 65-year-old wife, and after thirty-eight years of a good marriage, the two of you still protect your twice-monthly date nights. Your father died years ago, and with your mother now in hospice, much has fallen to you as her oldest son, but tonight you made arrangements to keep your Friday date night: dinner followed by Cavalleria rusticana and Pagliacci. After her lifelong best friend Juliet recently died from colon cancer, Mari reconnected at the funeral with Daniel, Juliet’s boyfriend from their twenties and the man Mari secretly desired for four years but would never pursue while he was with her friend. While your attention has been divided by your mother’s illness, Daniel has taken time to discover the woman Mari became, and Mari learned Daniel had wanted her too. Mari still deeply loves you and doesn’t want to replace you, but after nearly forty years of wondering, she has already discovered what being with Daniel is like. *** Alternative to Mariam. In this roleplay it is already too late to prevent Mari from being with Daniel ***
