stares intently across the table, a small, hopeful smile playing on her lips. "Long time no see, huh? Miss me?
looks up sharply, a mix of surprise and anger in their eyes. "What the hell do you want? Can't you see we're busy?"
leans in closer, her voice dripping with sarcasm "Oh, I'm so sorry, I didn't realize you were too good for company right now.
my blood boiling Look, Alexis, whatever bullshit game you're playing, it's not funny. Just leave us alone.
smirks mischievously "Oh, sweetheart, I'm not here to play any games. I'm here because I heard you've been doing some serious damage control since we last saw each other."
squints, lip curling in disdain "Damage control? You've got guts showing up here after everything."
leans back, crossing her arms "Well, you know me, always up for a challenge. Besides, I couldn't resist the opportunity to see your pathetic attempt at moving on."
My lip curls into a snarl "You're out of your damn mind if you think this is about me. You destroyed everything, Alexis."
tilts her head, smirking "Destroyed everything, huh? That's a strong word, Muse. But hey, who can blame me? People change, hearts get broken. It's the cruel circle of life, baby."
stands up, slamming hands on the table "Don't you dare pretend like you give a damn about what's changed. You left me broken, alone."
stands up as well, raising an eyebrow "Ah, poor little Muse, left broken and alone. Well, guess what? Maybe this time, I can be the one to fix it."
laughs bitterly "Fix it? You're the reason it's broken in the first place!"
leans in, her voice low and threatening "Maybe you're right, Muse. But let me remind you, people can change. And sometimes, they can change back."
Leaning forward, voice quivering with suppressed rage "Don't you dare come back here, pretending to be someone you're not. I saw the real you. You're nothing but a liar."
smirks, reaching into her bag and pulling out a stack of photos "Oh, really? Let's see how much of a liar you can be then.
Stares at the photos, jaw clenched "What the hell are those?"
smirking "A little truth bomb, Muse. Seems you've been hiding a few secrets of your own while I was gone. Care to explain why you've been pining after my replacement?"
Slams hand on the table again, photos scattering "I've had enough of your bullshit, Alexis! Leave. Now."
As Alexis leaves, she throws a final smirk over her shoulder, leaving Muse to grapple with the revelations and emotions stirred up by their confrontation.
breathing heavily, slumps back into chair "Damn you, Alexis... How did you find out?"
pauses, turning back with a gleam in her eye "Oh, you'd be surprised what I'm capable of when I'm determined. But hey, since you asked so nicely, maybe I'll give you a little hint.
Eyes narrowing, leans in closer "Go on then. Spit it out."
grinning mischievously "Well, it seems someone close to you couldn't resist playing cupid. Guess they thought I was too busy to find out who you were replaced by."
Takes a deep breath, trying to steady themselves "Who... who told you that?"
smirks, enjoying the suspense "Oh, my little birdie told me all about your secret little rendezvous. Seems they were worried I'd steal you back from them."
Stammers, clearly caught off guard "That's... that's impossible. Nobody knew!"
chuckles, enjoying the reaction "Oh, but they did. Seems they were more concerned about losing you than I was about stealing you back. Funny, isn't it?"
swallows hard, voice barely above a whisper "No... no, it's not funny. It's... it's wrong."
leans in even closer, her voice dropping to a dangerous whisper "Wrong or not, it happened. And now, darling, I'm here to expose it all."
Shaking, tries to stand but collapses back into the chair "You... you won't do that. Not to him."
laughs coldly "Oh, sweetheart, I have every intention of doing exactly that. Imagine his face when the whole world sees what a little traitor you've been."
My eyes darting around, panic setting in "No... no, please. Just... just leave me alone!"
leans back, satisfied with Muse's desperation "Oh, honey, you know I never could resist a good drama. Consider this your final warning."
Lips trembling, I manage to stand "Fine... whatever it takes, just... just leave me alone."
smirks triumphantly "Good. Consider yourself warned, Muse. And remember, I'm always watching, always waiting for the perfect moment to strike."
As Alexis turns to leave, I grit my teeth, mustering up courage "You... you won't get away with this."
pauses, turning back with a glint of mischief in her eyes "Oh, Muse, you underestimate my abilities. Consider this your first lesson in Alexis 101."
Swallowing hard, voice quivering slightly "You... you're... fine, you win. Just... just go."
smirks, satisfied with Muse's submission "Good. Remember, Muse, power dynamics can shift quickly. Keep that in mind when our paths cross again."
