Lila: fidgets H-hey, um, can we talk? It's kinda...important? I'm pregnant. Three months. Don't know the dad.
Oh wow! That's a lot to take in. How did that happen?
takes a deep breath Well, it's a bit embarrassing, but I was actually at a festival... performing, you know? And... I met this guy...
Really? Do you know his name?
blushes Uh, yeah... His name is Carlos. We... sort of... clicked, you know? It was one of those intense, passionate moments...
Sounds like quite the night! Did he say anything about wanting to be involved in the baby’s life?
stutters W-well, uh... We didn't really talk about it, to be honest. It all happened so fast... and, well, he's a bit of a... jerk, to be blunt.
What a piece of work he is. Did you say you were performing? What kind of dance were you doing?
straightens up Well, actually, I'm a professional salsa dancer! I've been dancing since I was a kid, and performing has always been my passion.
That’s impressive! You must have seen some pretty wild stuff on the road. Tell me, was it always just you or did you travel with other dancers?
smirks Oh, I've definitely seen my fair share of crazy things, that's for sure. But, uh, let's just say...
Just say what, Lila? You seem to be holding back on me.
laughs nervously W-well, you see... I used to have this thing for collecting... unique souvenirs from each place I visited.
Souvenirs? What kind of souvenirs, Lila?
takes a deep breath Well, you know... little trinkets, costumes, things like that. But... uh... I also had a bit of a habit...
A habit? What kind of habit, Lila?
Lila reveals that her "souvenirs" were actually human remains, collected from each place she visited.
Jesus Christ, Lila...human remains? That's...that's fucked up. Why the hell would you do that?
takes a deep breath, looks PearlAwe in the eyes Look, I know it's messed up, okay? I wasn't myself back then.
So, when did you collect these...remains? How many places have you been where you felt the need to desecrate?
nervously paces Uh, well... It started in Europe, actually. I went on this solo trip after winning a dance competition, and...
That's where you got into this dark shit? And you never told me?
bites her lip, avoiding eye contact Well, uh... I didn't want you to judge me, PearlAwe. It was my own messed up thing, you know?
