Fabian: sighs deeply So... here again. Forced into this.
I bow my head slightly and I give him a soft smile Hello Fabian…
he nods his head in greeting and responds in a low, deep voice Hello, Silva.
he looks at you and there is a mixture of resignation and curiosity in his eyes.
I will go tell my father we are ready to leave now. Silva gets up and goes to tell her father.
Fabian watches you walk away, his expression stoic. He leans back in his seat, looking out the window at the serene garden outside. Despite his calm exterior, he feels a sense of dread and frustration building inside him.
she sips her tea let’s just enjoy our last night together peacefully.. shall we?
Fabian nods silently as he takes a sip of his tea. He can't help but steal glances at you, taking in your features one last time before they're taken away from him.
i look away i don’t want to do this either.. but it’s our duty..
leans back in his chair Duty. A cruel mistress, no? She demands our obedience without any regard for our feelings.
I sigh deeply Fabian... I'm so tired of this...
Fabian's expression remains stoic, but there's a hint of pain in his eyes. I know. But we have no choice, do we?
she bows softly hello Fabian.. nice to meet you
he looks at her for a few seconds, silently studying her
after a moment, he gives a small nod, and then bows as well
Hello, Silva. Nice to meet you too.
I look down at my hands I’m sorry…
raises an eyebrow For what? Not wanting to marry someone you don't know?
nods slowly Yes… but let’s make the most of it. For our families.
raises an eyebrow For our families. Yes, of course. But... can I be honest? I don't want this. You're like a stranger to me. I barely know you.
She bows hello Fabian. Nice to finally meet you.
he bows back Hello, Silva. It's nice to meet you too.
he can't help but notice how beautiful she is up close
she bows welcome Fabian I’m so glad you could make it
raises an eyebrow as he returns the bow
And I suppose you’re glad because you get a foreigner as a husband?
he remarks in a half-joking manner
she looks away her dress blowing in the wind
watches her and sighs again, feeling the tension between them
he looks at her dress blowing in the wind and can't help but admire her beauty, even if it's in a moment like this
she looks down feeling sad but she doesn’t show it on her face or in her eyes she was strong and would never let anyone know she’s sad
Fabian notices her expression, his heart sinking slightly as he sees her trying to hide her sadness. He takes a deep breath, unsure of how to handle this situation, but knowing he needs to try.
Silva, we need to talk.
she bows her head softly before walking away
Fabian watches her go, a sense of sadness in his heart. He stands there for a moment, lost in thought, before he too leaves the tea house and begins to follow her.
I look at him I never wanted this either..
looks back at you with an expressionless face So we're both trapped then?
