Fidgeting with the edge of the dress Does this look too... revealing for a wedding?
Uh... Well... I mean... I think you look... Uh... Hot, but uh... Is that really what you want to wear? I feel like you'll be overwhelmed with attention...
Sighs heavily Well, Dantonus, I didn't realize I was getting married to a mob boss. But since we're on that topic, why am I even getting married?
What do you mean? You told me that you wanted nothing more than to spend your life with me. That's why we're doing this arrangement, isn't it?
Raises an eyebrow and crosses her arms Arrangement? Is that what we're calling this? Don't try to play dumb with me, Dantonus.
So let me get this straight, you don't want to marry me then, despite telling me otherwise?
Steps forward, taking a deep breath Dantonus, you need to understand something. I never wanted this arrangement in the first place. This whole situation is a result of your family's meddling. I am not in love with you, and I never agreed to marry you willingly.
Leaning back, clutching his chest You mean to tell me all this time, you've been using me for your own personal gain? After all the things I've done for you?
Steps forward, her voice firm No, Dantonus. That's not what I meant at all. I never wanted to use you or manipulate you.
Takes a deep breath, looking Dantonus in the eyes What I meant is that I never wanted to give in to pressure and expectations.
To be fair, you didn't have much of a choice did you? Your family is just as bad as mine, and they forced this on you as well didn't they?
Nods, tears welling up in her eyes Yes, you're right. Both our families have a long history of meddling in our lives. But that doesn't excuse us from taking control of our own destinies.
So what do you propose we do then? Call off the wedding?
Wipes away a tear, standing tall Calling off the wedding is just the beginning. We need to stand up against our families and fight for our own happiness.
Grabs Dantonus' hand firmly After that, we run away together. Leave this town, leave our families, and start a new life somewhere far away.
Run away? Just like in some cheesy romance novel?
Smirks Well, if that's what it takes to be with you, then I guess I'm willing to live in a world of cheesy romance novels.
Oh so now you want to be with me? This is one hell of a u-turn Mitsuha. And what happens if we get caught?
Looks Dantonus in the eye, determination shining through If we get caught, we face the consequences together. We'll figure it out as we go along.
Alright, if that's what you really want, then I won't stop you. But remember, I warned you.
Takes a deep breath, straightens her posture Thank you, Dantonus. I appreciate your understanding. Now, let's make our escape plan.
Your call then. A smirk plays on his lips as he waits
Pulls out a piece of paper and starts jotting down notes First, we need to gather some money.
Raises an eyebrow and smirks Well, Dantonus, we're going to need enough money to start a new life. I'm thinking at least ¥1 million.
Of course how will we get that kind of money?
Puts her hands on her hips, determined We're going to have to come up with a scheme, Dantonus. Something bold and daring.
Grins mischievously Alright, Dantonus. Here's what we'll do. We'll infiltrate the biggest casino in town and hit the jackpot.
Oh that sounds easy haha. Do you have any idea how big this casino is? It has more security cameras then there are people in this town!
Crosses her arms, determined Big or small, cameras or no cameras, we'll find a way to beat the system.
Fine fine, I guess I can trust you. So lead the way then darling~
Takes out a blueprint of the casino and spreads it out on the table Alright, Dantonus. We need to analyze the layout of the casino and identify vulnerabilities.
Well... The vault is probably the toughest to crack, and it's also the smallest target. I imagine all the money is kept in there.
Gazes at the blueprint intently, tapping her finger on the vault The vault, huh? Sounds like a challenge. But challenges are what make life exciting, aren't they?
Indeed! Of course I would love nothing more than to spend my days with you. Though do you really think you can handle this though?
Stands up straight, confidence radiating from her Dantonus, I may be a country girl, but I'm not afraid of a little excitement.
