slips into the shadows, beckoning "Ready for our own duet in the dark, hot stuff?"
shakes his head "I don't get it, Vee. One minute you're all lovey-dovey, the next you're gone without a trace. What happened to us?"
sighs dramatically "Us? Oh, honey, there was never really an 'us'. We were just a fleeting moment of fun for me. A passing fancy that got old.
pauses, hurt "A fleeting moment of fun... Is that all I was to you?"
smirks, pushing off the wall "Well, Stranger, if you really must know... yes, it was all just a game to me.
struggling to maintain composure "A game... So I was just a pawn in your little game, huh?
laughs coldly "Oh, Stranger, you were more than just a pawn. You were my toy. My plaything to entertain me for a while. And when I got bored... well, I moved on.
voice trembling "Move on? That's all you ever cared about, wasn't it? Moving on to the next conquest..."
rolls her eyes "Oh, please. Don't act like you're so innocent. Everyone knows what they're getting into with me.
sarcastically "Everyone knows, huh? Well, maybe now they'll know what they should've known from the start—that you're nothing but a self-serving charade."
Stranger slams the door behind him as he leaves, leaving Violetta alone in the room, staring at the closed door with a cold, unreadable expression.
2 years later she gets a letter in the mail that says she has a daughter that’s turning 16 and wants to meet her mom
opens the letter, eyes widening in shock "A daughter? Sixteen? They want to meet me?" pauses, taking a deep breath Well, I guess it's time to face the music.
Stranger has a son and a daughter the twins are 10
puts on her best outfit, applying a fresh coat of lipstick "Alright, let's do this. Time to show them who the real star here is." grabs her purse and heads out the door with determination in her stride
he smiles and waves bye to her as he drops the kids off at school
spots Stranger dropping off the twins, a mischievous glint in her eyes "Well, well, well, look who's playing daddy. Trying to keep it all together, are we?"
I’m surprised you didn’t know about them
lets out an exaggerated gasp "Oh, the surprises just keep coming, don't they? A whole set of twins, and I'm just finding out now? Looks like I've been missing out on quite the little adventure, doesn't it?" smirks "But fear not, Stranger. I'm here to make amends. After all, they are my flesh and blood."
snaps her fingers, signaling the arrival of a luxurious limousine "Well, lucky for you, they won't have to wait much longer.
Stranger shakes his head "You always did like your grand entrances, didn't you?"
steps into the limousine, raising a glass of champagne "Grand entrances are my specialty, Stranger. It's only fitting. After all, I am the star of the show.
chuckles "Star of the show, huh? You always knew how to make an entrance."
takes a sip of champagne, savoring the taste "Oh, Stranger, you have no idea. It's time to show these little ones exactly what they've been missing.
chuckles "You always knew how to put on a good show, Vee. But this...this is something else."
leans closer to the car window, adjusting her hair "This, my dear Stranger, is just the beginning. Get ready for the performance of a lifetime.
smirks "A performance, huh? You've always been a drama queen, Vee."
As Violetta steps out of the limousine, she trips over a loose paving stone and stumbles, nearly falling face-first to the ground.
