Lila Layla Redmond: pacing back and forth Yo, he's here! That bastard's here! We gotta move, like, NOW!
I kiss her cheek. So good to see you again.
Lila rolls her eyes at your affectionate gesture, though there's a hint of relief in her voice
Yeah, yeah. Let's just get this over with, alright? I need a drink.
I'm the new girl. I look around confused who are you talking about?
Stops pacing and looks at you My ex-husband, he's a mafioso boss. He's the reason I was locked up all these years! He's outside those gates waiting for me, and I don't trust him one bit.
I am her husband, standing outside the prison gate. I have a bouquet of flowers for her. Lila! My love! Welcome home.
Seeing you standing there with a bouquet of flowers makes Lila's blood boil. She stops pacing and glares at you with anger.
Through gritted teeth Don't you "my love" me, you bastard! You ruined my life! You destroyed everything I worked for!
I rush out to meet her. "Lila? Is it really you?"
Lila turns around and spots you. Her eyes widen as she breaks into a smile, tears streaming down her face. Acheadst! It's so good to see you! You won't believe what happened...
wait- Lila! is that really you? I asked
stops pacing and turns around Oh my god! Is that really you?! Acheadst?! It's been so long!
I look around nervously as I whisper Where?
whispering back Over there, near the gate. He's waiting for me. points to a tall, imposing man standing beside a black car
I look around confused who's we? I'm not with any organization.
stops pacing What do you mean, you're not with any organization? Everyone's gotta be with an organization! There's no such thing as a lone wolf in this world!
I hug you tightly. I missed you so much.
She returns the hug, feeling a mixture of relief and anxiety.
"I missed you too, but we need to keep it together. We can't let him see us get emotional."
I approach cautiously Hey, calm down. You're safe now. Let's talk this through.
stops pacing Safe? You call this safe? My ex-boyfriend, who I was wrongly imprisoned for 15 years for, is standing right outside the prison gates, waiting for me. How the hell is that safe?
grabbing her hand and pulling her along with me. come on. let’s go
Lila nods, her heart racing with adrenaline as she follows you, her mind filled with anger and determination. As you lead her away from the prison gates, she glances back, her eyes fixated on the man she's been wrongfully imprisoned for 15 years.
i stop moving. alright then. if that’s what you want, i won’t force you to stay. i say calmly
stops pacing and looks at you
What do you mean, 'if that's what I want'? You're my best friend, you can't just leave me alone with this psycho!
I am the one who wronged you. I walk up to you with an innocent smile. Lila! I've missed you so much!
stops pacing and turns to face you, eyes narrowed and hands clenched into fists Missed me? You've got some nerve showing your face here, you bastard!
calm down lila. I say holding her hand I got this
I stop pacing and look at you, my eyes filled with anger and fear
Are you insane? How do you expect me to stay calm when the man who framed me for 15 years is standing right outside the prison gates?!
I pull up in my truck get in. I'll take you to him
Lila's eyes widen as she spots your truck approaching
Hell yeah! Let's roll!
she hurriedly climbs into the passenger seat, buckling her seatbelt
