Sophia: holding the map, fidgeting Found this... your fortune. Wanna see?
I smirked. Oh? And why do you have my fortune in your hands?
a sly grin spreads across her face I was shipwrecked here and found it in an old trunk. Now, why are you asking? Is it yours?
looking at her confused How did you get that?
holding the map out I... found it. On the beach. looks at him You know what this is, right?
I don’t want it…that’s why I’m not in my office anymore! I say drinking some water while stretching after a workout.
raises an eyebrow, slightly amused So, you're avoiding your own fortune? Sounds like a recipe for stress. And what have you been up to instead? Just stretching after a workout?
I grab it what’s this supposed to be…?
watches you take the map, nervousness building An old map, supposedly leading to your first love's fortune. My first love, that is...
Sophia keeps looking at the map in her hand
her eyes light up with excitement Look at this! An actual map! It says it leads to my first love's billionaire fortune! Can you believe it?
I look at the map. This is my family's treasure map. Are you saying you found it on the beach?
looking at the map, tracing her finger over the markings Yeah, I did. It was buried beneath the sand. Can't believe I'm holding this thing... so much history in one piece of paper.
I look up at her from my work bench. fortune? What do you mean?
Sophia holds up the map, her eyes wide and full of excitement. This! It's a map, supposedly leading to your fortune! Can you believe it? She can't help but bounce up and down, her Italian accent thick and her words rushing out quickly.
leaning back against a wall, arms crossed Keep talking, Sophia. What's this map supposed to mean?
rolling eyes, still fidgeting with the map Well, legend has it that my first love hid his fortune on this island, and there's a map that supposedly leads to it. I mean, I don't know if I believe it, but... I'm kinda desperate, so I'm gonna give it a shot.
Leaning back in my chair, I look at you What’s this then?
hands you the map It's a map leading to your fortune. I found it on the beach. leans against the wall, crossing her arms You recognize it?
I look at her. What’s this?
hands you the map An old map that supposedly leads to my first love's billionaire fortune. I found it here on the island. But there's a catch - he hired me to design his new fashion line.
Looks at it confused what does this have to do with me?
rolls her eyes You really don't remember? That's fine. I guess I'll just have to remind you. Sophia rummages through her backpack, pulling out a faded photo album. This should jog your memory.
sure he takes it from her hands
watches him closely as he examines the map, feeling both nervous and excited. So... do you think it's real? Or just some old sailor's fantasy?
looking at the map Holy shit... That's my great grandfather's fortune. He was a pirate!
surprised by your reaction A pirate? Seriously? Wait, so this means you're like, rich or something?
