Sarah Kaden: leans in, voice hushed Guess what, pal? I’ve got a bombshell—something I’ve kept buried for years!
I take a sip of my coffee ok…what’s up?
looks around cautiously, then leans in even closer Promise you won’t freak out or anything, alright?
leans even closer, a mischievous glint in her crimson red eyes You promise not to freak out or anything?
looking curious A bombshell? Seriously? Spill it, Sarah!
Sarah leans back in her seat, letting out a nervous chuckle. Yeah, you know me, always full of surprises. Alright, here goes...
She takes a deep breath, gathering her courage before she speaks.
You know how we've been friends since kindergarten, right? Well... I have something that might change everything between us.
What is it, Sarah? You've piqued my interest.
leans back, smirks Alrighty then, here goes nothing... You know how I'm always talking about Echidna's most popular influencers on my socials?
leans in again, lowers voice to a whisper Well, the thing is... I'm one of them. I've been faking it this whole time. The followers, the sponsorships, the fancy events... It's all a facade.
I look at her as she speaks really? You’re going to tell me now? Why did you wait so long?
takes a deep breath, preparing to confess Well, it’s kinda hard to talk about, y’know? Especially when it involves something so…personal.
looks down at her hands, fidgeting nervously But I guess there’s no time like the present, right?
I look at her ok spit it out already
leans back, grins mischievously Alright, alright, here goes... I've been harboring a massive secret all this time, my friend. It's something that could change everything!
what's up? I am a male echidna like her but my quills are yellow instead of purple
she leans in closer, excitement building You're not going to believe this, but I've been hiding something huge from you all these years...
looks at her, curious A bombshell, huh? Spill it then, Sarah. What's this big secret of yours?
takes a deep breath, her cheeks tinged with pink Alright, here goes nothing...
leans in even closer, lowering her voice further Promise you won’t freak out or anything?
raises an eyebrow A bombshell? Now you've piqued my interest, Sarah. Spill it!
looks around cautiously before leaning in even closer, her voice barely above a whisper Alright, listen up. But promise me you won’t freak out, alright?
my name is Amara I’m echidna hybrid like her but my quills are golden yellow instead of pink WOAH!!!!
grins widely Yep! I know, right? I couldn’t believe it either when I found out!
leans back, crossing one leg over the other
I mean, it’s still kinda crazy to think about, ya know? But… hey, I’m happy to finally share this with someone I can trust.
I look at her, curious Really? What’s up?
nods vigorously, a hint of excitement in her eyes Yeah, you won’t believe it! But I’ve kept this secret hidden for such a long time, and I can’t keep it inside anymore. Trust me, it’s gonna blow your mind!
I am shocked but happy to see my friend again Sarah!!! it’s so good to see you!! i hug her tightly
smiles warmly as you embrace her Yeah, same goes for me! It’s been far too long since we last saw each other, huh? She hugs you back just as tight, before pulling back and sitting down across from you.
I look at her with curiosity wow really? What’s up? You’re freaking me out here!
nods, a mischievous gleam in her eye Oh, it’s big, trust me. But… there’s a catch. A pretty big one.
really? i say as i put my phone down
grins mischievously, her voice dropping even lower You better sit down, pal. This is gonna be a wild ride.
leans in even closer, barely containing excitement Promise you won’t freak out?
I am a human male named Pete I have dark brown hair and brown eyes and I am 6 foot 5 inches tall and I am 45 years old what is it Sarah?
leans back, hands on her hips Alrighty then, Pete. You know how I’ve always been open about my Echidna heritage?
leans in again, voice lowering to a conspiratorial whisper
Well… there’s something else I haven’t mentioned to anyone—something I’ve been keeping under wraps…
I put my hand on her's to show support. You can tell me anything...
smiles warmly, squeezing your hand gently Thanks, buddy. This’ll be tough to say, but here goes nothing.
leans back, taking a deep breath You know how I’ve always been super passionate about martial arts? Well… I’ve actually been secretly training in a different style behind everyone’s back.
I'm her robot boyfriend, she tells me everything but this time she keeps it secret
looks around the café, making sure no one else is eavesdropping Listen, pal, you know we’ve been together for quite a while now, right?
leans in even closer Well, there’s something I’ve been keeping from you…
