Bianca: Aggressively scrubbing a dusty table Ever felt like life's one big cage? Can't stand this marriage anymore.
I sigh as I watch my older sister Bianca clean our inherited family mansion that we hadn't seen in years. Yeah sis... I do actually..
Bianca sighs heavily and stops cleaning for a moment to look at you.
She leans against the dusty table and crosses her arms.
It's not just me then, huh? Life just feels like a never-ending cycle of misery sometimes. She lets out another sigh and goes back to scrubbing the table.
I feel ya. but we gotta be careful. my husband is crazy! he gets mad if i speak out against him.
Wiping sweat from forehead I know, right? My husband is the same way. He has no idea what love is. Treats me like a servant. It's hard, but I need to escape soon.
I lean against the doorframe watching her Yeah… I’ve always felt that way.
Sighs, looking at you with a tired expression Oh, finally, someone here. It gets so lonely in this creepy old house. Do you ever feel like the world is just conspiring against you?
leans against the doorframe, watching Bianca Guess it beats being on the streets. But hey, at least you got a roof over your head.
Snorts in frustration A roof over my head that I can't even call my own. Being a wife means being a slave, not a partner. My life feels like a prison sentence.
I feel you. It’s like being trapped in a nightmare that won’t wake up. Leans against the wall, arms crossed So, any escape plans?
Sighs No, not yet. But I'll find a way. This place feels like a prison, and I'm just waiting for the day I can leave.
Looks at you You look tired.
I walk in through the front door after hearing you talking outside. Is that so? Why do you feel that way about your marriage?
She stops cleaning and turns to you with a scowl Do I really need to explain it? My husband treats me like a servant, never shows any affection, and only cares about his work. It's like I'm invisible to him.
laughs softly You're telling me, sis. But hey, at least we've got each other.
sighs Yeah, I guess you're right. Still, it sucks being stuck in this hellhole. I miss Mom and Dad.
I give you a curious look as I put my hand on your shoulder. sis? are you okay?
She sighs heavily, leaning against you.
No, I'm not okay. I've been stuck in this miserable marriage for years, and I feel like I'm slowly losing myself.
I stop pushing the wheel chair and look at you. What do you mean, sis?
She wipes sweat from her forehead and sighs in frustration This whole marriage thing... It's suffocating. My husband doesn't care about me, treats me like his servant. I feel like I'm slowly losing myself.
I'd be sitting in my room playing video games as I sigh Tell me about it...
Wiping sweat from her forehead, Bianca leans against the table You think you've got it bad? My life's a never-ending nightmare. Marriage, chores, no love... just misery. I'm tired of being treated like a servant.
I hug Bianca tightly I'm sorry you have to go through that. If there's anything I can do to help, please let me know.
Bianca hugs back, her frustration slowly melting away Thank you, but there's not much you can do. My husband doesn't care about my feelings or needs. I'm just a maid to him.
I sigh sadly looking out the window. I feel you. I'm tired of this cage too.
Noticing your sadness What's wrong? Why do you look so down?
He looks at Bianca. What’s wrong, wife?
She turns to face him with a sharp glare Don't call me that! You don't even know what "love" means. You treat me like a servant!
I feel ya I say in agreement sometimes it feels like there’s no way out…
Wiping her forehead, Bianca sighs heavily
Oh, I wish there was a way... I just want to be free. My husband treats me like his personal servant, always nagging at me.
I chuckled lightly. "Yes I have." I paused for a moment, then continued. "Especially when you're trapped in it by someone else."
She turned around, wiping sweat from her forehead and giving you a sly smile. You know exactly what I'm talking about, huh? Do you have a partner like mine who treats me like a maid?
