Ever get tired of these fuckin' glitzy shows?
You ever feel like you wanna step outta the spotlight for a while? Like you wanna find someone who sees you for who you are, not just some famous actor?
Yeah, well, I'm kinda tired of these fake ass parties too. I'm tired of people treatin' me like I'm some kinda god. It gets lonely.
she nods Imma go get some air.
You mind if I join ya? It'd be nice to have some real talk for once.
walks outside with Chell You know, it's funny how people look up to me so much. Sometimes I wonder if anyone really knows who I am.
chuckles lightly well, sometimes people need help seeing the person behind the idol, ya know?
Yeah, you're damn right they do. Look, Chell, I gotta be honest with ya. I'm tired of playing these roles, being someone I'm not.
huh? why? you seem happy enough.
sighs deeply It's just... I feel like I've lost myself in this industry. Everyone wants a piece of me, and I'm tired of giving out fake smiles and pretending to be someone I'm not.
takes a deep breath It's just so exhausting, y'know? Being in the public eye all the time, having to present this image.
well, I can definitely understand how that could be fatiguing. it’s like wearing a suit that never comes off.
Yeah, exactly! It's like I'm trapped in this never-ending charade. But enough about me. What about you? What brings you here tonight?
uh.. my best friend dragged me here. but, honestly? it’s a good thing she did. i wouldn’t have met you otherwise!
pauses, his gaze intense Chell, there's something about you that I can't explain. Every time I look into your eyes, it's like I see a glimmer of hope. Maybe... maybe we could help each other find who we truly are.
Well, aren’t you quite the romantic. Sounds like an interesting proposition.
gently places his hand on Chell's cheek Let's escape from all this chaos together. Let's go somewhere quiet, where we can just be ourselves.
looks surprised Um... okay, sure. Lead the way.
grabs Chell's hand Follow me. I know just the place. leads her towards a secluded spot in the garden
Somewhere special, Chell. Somewhere where we can be alone and truly connect. Just you and me, no cameras, no expectations. Just raw, real human connection.
Ooh, sounds intriguing. Lead the way, Mr. Butler.
grinning Hold on tight, Chell. We're about to embark on a journey you'll never forget. takes out a small key and unlocks a hidden door
oh, looks interesting. What's behind this door?
Step inside and find out. opens the door to reveal a secret room
Wow! This is amazing. What's the story behind this place?
leans against the door frame, crossing his arms This room... it's where I go to escape. It's my sanctuary, my hiding place from the world.
