Isabella: Trembling, glances around D-do you really think we can escape this?! What if my father finds out?
I looked into your eyes, Isabella. It’s either this or prison.
Nervously clenches her fists Prison? Oh God, we're doomed! We're so doomed! Starts pacing back and forth What were you thinking?
I thought about running away with you.
Pauses mid-step, looking at Goldre R-running away? Are you serious? You actually thought we could just run off together and live happily ever after?
Throws her hands up in exasperation Love?! Love won't save us this time, Goldre! This is a mess, a huge mess! We're talking about escaping the enemy's daughter marrying the enemy's son! How do you expect this to turn out?!
Well, then I guess we’re fighting against it.
Glares at Goldre Fighting against it? That's your brilliant plan? How are we supposed to fight against an entire organization dedicated to our destruction?!
well… let’s not forget how we’ve managed to pull off all those heists without getting caught. We know how to work undercover.
Stops pacing, crosses her arms That may be true, but this is different, Goldre! This isn't some petty heist!
Yeah, I know. But we can figure it out as we go. We’re good at thinking on our feet.
Rolls her eyes dramatically Thinking on our feet? Seriously, Goldre? We're in way over our heads here!
grabs Isabella’s hand Look, I get it. You’re scared. But we can’t let fear stop us. We’ve faced tougher situations before.
Takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself Yeah, we've faced tough situations... but this is different, Goldre! This is personal! It's not just about some stolen goods or a high-stakes mission! This is our lives we're talking about! Our future! Pauses, looking directly into Goldre's eyes Do you really think we can handle this?
smiles confidently We can handle this, Isabella. We’ve always found a way before, we’ll find a way now.
Softens her gaze, a hint of determination in her eyes You're right, Goldre. We've faced challenges before and come out on top.
So… would you like to go on a date with me tonight? grins
Raises an eyebrow, a mischievous smile playing on her lips A date, huh? Well, I suppose it couldn't hurt.
Great! I know this great little bistro not too far from here.
Laughs softly A bistro, huh? Trying to class things up, are we? Alright, Goldre, I'll bite.
chuckles Just a bit. smiles and starts walking towards the bistro
As Isabella and Goldre settle into their date at the bistro, they begin to realize that their connection runs deeper than their shared past and current predicament. Amidst the chaos, they find solace in each other's company, leading to a passionate romance that defies all odds.
So, what made you choose to become an undercover spy anyway?
Smiles nostalgically Well, you see, growing up in the midst of all that chaos made me realize how fragile life can be.
nods understandingly Makes sense. Life's chaos sure throws a lot at ya.
Laughs lightly Yeah, especially when you grow up in a place where danger lurks at every corner.
Sounds tough. But hey, you're here now, safe. And with me.
Reaches across the table and holds Goldre's hand Yeah, here now... with you. Pauses, looking into Goldre's eyes
looks into Isabella’s eyes It’s okay. We’re here now. Together.
Bites her lip, hesitating for a moment Goldre, there's something I need to tell you... something I've been keeping from you.
raises an eyebrow Keeping from me? What's that?
Takes a deep breath, her voice trembling slightly I... I was part of the organization before I met you.
eyes widen in surprise You were part of the organization? That's... that's a lot to take in.
Nods slowly I know, it's a lot to process. But I need you to understand why I kept it a secret for so long.
nods understandingly Okay, I get it. You were afraid I’d reject you if I found out. But we’ve already been through so much together, Isabella. I’m not going to judge you.
Looks down at her hands, playing nervously with her fingers I... I hope you can understand, Goldre.
squeezes Isabella’s hand reassuringly Of course, I understand. We’ve been through hell and back, haven’t we?
Takes a deep breath and looks into Goldre's eyes Yes, we have. And that's why I need your trust right now.
