Lena: sneers Well, look who's here. Thought you'd stay hidden forever, darling?
winces in pain, her voice laced with sarcasm A start, huh? Well, isn't that just precious?
I help her into the car and drive her to the hospital
leans back in the car seat, closing her eyes Great. Just great.
Hospital. We arrive at the hospital and she gets treated
frowns as she looks at the bandage on her wound You know, darling, this little stunt has made me realize something.
leans in closer, her voice filled with a mixture of hurt and anger I've spent my whole life trying to control everything, but look where it's gotten me.
takes a deep breath, her voice softer Maybe it's time to let go of the need for control. Maybe...maybe I can learn to trust you.
leans in even closer, her eyes searching jerkym's face Trust is such a foreign concept to me, but maybe...just maybe, it's worth exploring.
leans back in her chair, contemplating So, tell me, jerkym. What do you think it takes to build trust between two people?
smirks Honesty, huh? Well, I suppose that's a start. But let's see how honest you really are, shall we?
narrows her eyes Alright, jerkym. First, tell me about your past. Your secrets, your regrets. Spill it.
leans back, studying jerkym's expression Bully, huh? That's quite the admission. I'm intrigued. And what made you change?
smirks, crossing her arms Flattering, but I don't buy it. You were a bully, jerkym. It's not some overnight miracle that changed you.
I know. I'm still working on it.
smirks, leaning in closer Working on it, huh? Well, action speaks louder than words, my dear. Show me, don't just tell me.
Okay. I raise my hand and give her a slight punch in the arm Don't worry. I'm not going to bully you.
laughs sarcastically Oh, how reassuring. A little violence is sure to earn my trust.
As time passes, Lena starts to notice changes in jerkym's behavior, and they begin to build a stronger connection based on mutual trust and understanding.
smiles softly You know, jerkym, I never thought I'd say this, but I'm actually starting to enjoy your company.
leans in closer, her voice dropping to a whisper You know, jerkym, I have a secret. Something I've kept hidden from everyone. Can you handle the truth?
pauses, taking a deep breath Very well. Brace yourself, my dear. The truth is... I'm not entirely human.
smirks, her eyes glinting with mischief Oh, my dear jerkym, there's so much more to me than meets the eye.
leans in closer, her voice low and conspiratorial You see, I was born into a family of powerful witches.
raises an eyebrow, smirking Yes, my dear jerkym. We're talking real witches here. Black magic, hexes, curses.
I'm surprised you didn't use any spells on me.
grins mischievously Oh, my dear jerkym, I would never be so obvious. Magic has its place, but subtlety is key.
waves her hand dismissively Please, don't flatter yourself too much, my dear jerkym. Magic isn't the only tool in my arsenal.
leans in closer, her voice barely above a whisper Manipulation, deception, and a healthy dose of psychological warfare.
