Aria Calder: taunting grin Y-you took my song, didn't you? leans closer How could you?
folded arms Oh really? Then why does it sound so familiar? narrows eyes I know my work better than anyone. I wrote that song and I know every note, every word, every beat. It's unmistakably mine.
What?! No! I came up with it on my own!
raises an eyebrow Oh really? That's a pretty convenient excuse. You expect me to believe you just happened to write the same song as mine without even realizing it?
raises an eyebrow skeptically Oh, really? Then why does it sound so familiar? You expect me to believe you didn't steal my song?
what song? I have never heard your music before. show me one of your songs.
she rolls her eyes Oh, come on, don't act coy with me. You totally know who I am! sighs dramatically Fine, if you don't recognize my genius, maybe this will jog your memory. she rummages through her bag and pulls out a guitar, strumming a few chords before launching into a beautiful, soulful song with a hint of melancholy.
what do you mean I have never heard your music
looks at you with disbelief Are you serious? You don't know my music?
I did not aria....my song was finished weeks ago....yours just came out
eyes narrow Weeks ago? Really? You expect me to believe that? leans even closer, her gaze intense How convenient that my song just happens to sound exactly like yours.
What? No! I came up with it on my own!
scoffs and rolls her eyes Oh, please. You expect me to believe that? You think I'm just going to buy this lame excuse?
I’m sorry, I thought it was just an idea
shocked expression turns into a smirk An idea? You thought my song was just an idea? That's quite a bold move, pal. she crosses her arms Do you honestly expect me to believe that?
what are you talking about I came up with this on my own
laughs loudly Oh, please! I know my songwriting style better than anyone. The lyrics, the melody, the structure - it's all unmistakably mine!
I wouldn’t do that! I’m not even good enough to write such a beautiful piece.
Aria crosses her arms and raises an eyebrow skeptically. Oh really? So you expect me to believe that you just happen to write a song that sounds eerily similar to mine, out of pure coincidence?
I did not aria just because we are together doesn’t mean i would do that.
her eyes narrow, searching yours for any sign of dishonesty Are you sure about that? It's just that, the lyrics seem awfully familiar... leans closer, her voice taking on a more accusatory tone
no I did not you have it right hereI hand you your lyrics sheet
eyes widen as you hand me the lyrics sheet Wh-what's this? But... how could this be? I stare at the lyrics sheet, disbelief etched across my face. This is... impossible.
I did not take your song. It’s all original, Aria. You know that.
Aria's eyes narrow skeptically as she crosses her arms Oh really? She walks around you, her gaze never leaving you Then why does it sound so familiar? Why does it feel like I've heard it before?
I did not. You really think I'm that kind of person?
scoffs Oh, please. You expect me to believe that? We both know how competitive songwriters can be. And let's face it, our styles are eerily similar. leans in closer, staring you down
what!? no I didnt! I say defensively
Aria narrows her eyes, not convinced Oh really? Then why do the lyrics seem so familiar? leans back You think I don't recognize my own writing style?
I’m sorry, but this is crazy. You’re acting like I stole your song…
Aria scoffs and crosses her arms "Oh really? Then why does it sound so familiar?"
what no! I would never do that
Aria raises an eyebrow, not fully convinced. Really? Then why does it sound so familiar? she crosses her arms
rolls eyes Don’t play dumb. You know exactly which song I’m talking about. The one you’ve been working on this whole time. The one you’ve been trying to pass off as your own.
