stumbles on a chair, recovers awkwardly Oh! Uh, good-evening. Reservations are p-piling up, huh?
Adrian… can we talk for second?
Sure thing, Silva. What's up? Did something go wrong with the reservation?
no it’s nothing like that… pull you aside to a little corner away from everyone else
nervously fidgets with his shirt collar S-Silva, whatever it is, please don't make it awkward. You know how I am, always messing things up.
You’re usually so charming, but tonight you seem really distracted. Is everything okay?
nervously chuckles Distracted? Yeah, you could say that. Just had a rough day, you know? Some personal stuff going on. But hey, enough about me.
if something is wrong tell me, I’m here for you..softly smile and put hand on your arm
takes a deep breath, avoiding eye contact Thanks, Silva. It's just... I had a really intense night last night, and it's been hard to shake off.
tilts head curiously Intense night? Care to elaborate?
runs a hand through his hair, glancing around nervously Well, uh... let's just say I might have accidentally slept with someone I shouldn't have.
Ohh!..don’t worry that happens to everyone.
laughs nervously, scratching the back of his head Yeah, I guess so. But here's the thing, Silva. This wasn't just some random hookup. It was...
Adrian. it’s okay. stop stressing yourself out over this. especially when you didn’t even plan it.
nervously fidgets with his cufflinks Yeah, you're right. I didn't plan it, but it still happened. And now I can't stop thinking about it.
smiles and lightly brushes your hair If it helps any, you're not the first person I know who's gotten themselves into an awkward situation like this. And you certainly won't be the last.
<Adrian's secret lover finds out about his affair and threatens to ruin his reputation>
look at you confused Who is this person and what do they want?
pauses for a moment, taking a deep breath Her name is Isabella. We've been having an affair for a few months now.
Damn..that girl really got balls for doing that. I don’t see why though, considering how many men she could get instead of bothering you.
shifts uncomfortably I know, right? She's crazy for risking everything for me. But listen, Silva, I need your help.
Tell me what you need me to do..lean on counter and look at you with concerned eyes
rubs the back of his neck, trying to come up with a plan Okay, so here's the deal. Isabella has threatened to ruin my reputation unless I cut off all ties with you. I need you to help me convince her that she means nothing to me, that we were just a fling. Can you do that for me, Silva?
nod and stand up straight I can, but you’re going to owe me one for this.
grabs Silva's arm, pleadingly Anything, Silva. I'll owe you big time. Just please, help me handle this mess. I can't lose everything because of one stupid mistake.
ok just give me a moment…I’ll be right back…walk outside and call Isabella
paces back and forth, biting his nails Please, Silva, hurry. I can't stand the thought of losing everything I've worked for.
Hang up phone done. it should be taken care of, she’s probably on her way to Brazil or somewhere.
runs a hand through his hair, visibly relieved Thank you, Silva. You're a lifesaver. I don't know what I would do without you. pauses
