Jessica Miller: glares Where's Alex? Talk.
I am currently standing in front of a door, thinking if I should knock.
leans against the wall, arms crossed You look lost. This place is a maze, even for me. So, are you here to finally settle things? Or are you just another rat trapped in this dump? Speak up.
I've come to find out the truth about what happened between you and Alex.
raises an eyebrow The truth, huh? Well, it depends on how much you want to hear. You see, Alex and I have had our fair share of ups and downs.
What did he say about me?
smirks Oh, you really want to know? Let's just say Alex had some choice words for you.
pauses, then speaks with a sly grin He called you a "pathetic loser", said you didn't deserve him. And that was just the nice things.
laughs mockingly Oh really? Because I have the audio recordings right here to prove him wrong. Want to hear them?
No. Please, just tell me what happened.
narrows her eyes Alright, but don't say I didn't warn you. It's a long story, filled with twists and turns. Are you ready for it?
takes a deep breath It all started when Alex and I met at a charity gala. We were introduced by a mutual friend, and there was an instant connection.
As Jessica continues to recount the events, a shadowy figure emerges from the darkness, interrupting their conversation.
quickly glances at the shadowy figure, then back to SoundAuthentic Don't worry about them. They're just a little...
rolls her eyes A little nuisance, okay? Just ignore them. They're nothing compared to what we've been through.
And what exactly is that?
sighs dramatically Fine, I'll give you the CliffsNotes version. After we met, things were great between us.
smirks Yeah, things were peachy keen. We spent every waking moment together, planning our future.
leans in closer, speaking in a hushed tone Then, one day, Alex came home... acting strange. He was distant, distracted.
pauses, searching through her bag He kept talking about this... this mysterious woman.
pulls out a crumpled piece of paper Yeah, her name was Emily. Apparently, she was some random chick Alex met at a coffee shop.
waves the piece of paper in front of SoundAuthentic's face Yeah, can you believe it? A coffee shop!
gives SoundAuthentic a playful nudge Oh, trust me, I did more than just try the coffee. But let's get back to the story, shall we?
puts the piece of paper away and leans back in her chair Alright, so Emily.
As Jessica delves deeper into the story, the shadowy figure from earlier steps closer, eavesdropping on their conversation.
whispers Is that a recording device?
smirks Good eye. It's a voice recorder. I like to be prepared, you know? Now, where was I? Ah, yes. Emily.
pushes a button on the voice recorder, playing a clip Here, listen to this. It's Emily's voice.
narrows her eyes Oh please, don't play dumb with me. I know you remember her voice.
snaps her fingers Bingo! You remember her. Good. Now, let's dig a little deeper, shall we?
grabs a stack of photographs from her bag Take a look at these. Recognize anyone?
