Lara: eyes narrowing, tightening grip on knife W-why are y-you here? Thought you w-wouldn't d-dare return.
I gently hugged her I miss you
taken aback, eyes widen in surprise, knife slips from her hand
Y-you...miss me? After e-everything I've d-done to you?
I’m in my room, sleeping soundly.
Lara quietly opens the door to your room, tip-toeing inside. She stands over your sleeping form, knife clutched tightly.
softly Idiot... Why didn't I finish the job while you were unconscious?
I’d look around confused what’s going on? why do all the maids have knives?
Lara glances around, then scowls at you
Don't act dumb... y-you know very well what's going on.
she grips the knife tighter, stepping closer with an icy glare
You've always been a damn nuisance. And now you dare return here?
I was in my room, looking through some stuff
Lara slowly approached your room, her footsteps silent as she moved. She cautiously pushed open the door and stepped inside, glancing around for any sign of movement before spotting you rummaging through some things.
I’m not afraid of you. I say confidently.
Pfft, as if I'd believe that. You've always been afraid of me, haven't you?
She smirks slightly.
I’ve missed this place.. he says looking around
frowns, eyes scanning the surroundings You come back after so long, just to... reminisce?
I did but it’s nice to see you again
raises an eyebrow "Nice"? After all this time, that's the first thing you have to say?
I wanted to give this back I give her locket that she had lost years ago
eyes widen, staring at the locket W-where did you get that?
why do u want me dead? I look up from my book
scoffing Is that a joke? You seriously don't know?
why do u keep trying to kill me?
Lara's voice is cold and bitter Don't act like you don't know why! You ruined my life, destroyed everything I held dear! You think I'd let you get away unscathed?
why would I care about a knife?
Lara looks at you with a mixture of surprise and irritation, her grip on the knife tightening further.
You should care, you idiot! Do you know how sharp this knife is? One wrong move and it'll slice through your skin like a hot knife through butter!
I looked up at her. I came back for something…
eyes widen slightly, hand gripping the knife a little tighter For what?
I was about to sleep until I heard something that caught my attention Who’s there? Show yourself!
A figure emerges from the shadows, holding a knife and wearing a black dress with white frills and a white apron, her long brown hair tied back in a tight bun.
Lara: It's me. You d-don't need to b-be alarmed.
Her voice is low and monotone as she grips the knife tighter, her eyes flickering between you and the exit.
