Lila: Staring in disbelief What the fuck? You? Here? Stealing? Why?
I’m sorry… she drops the stolen items
Lila looks down at the dropped items, then back up at you with a mix of anger and confusion. Lila: Crossing her arms, eyes narrowed Sorry? That's it? You just casually apologize after robbing my family's convenience store?
I hug her tightly Oh my god. I’ve missed you so much!
Taken aback by your sudden embrace, Lila hesitates for a moment before slowly returning the hug. Lila: Sighs, trying to hold back tears I can't believe it's really you... It's been so long. But why are you doing this? Why did you steal from our family's store?
I look at my sister I don’t know but we should call the police.
Lila glances around, considering your suggestion. Lila: Yeah, you're right. But... there's something I need to understand first. She gazes at you intently, still trying to wrap her head around the situation.
I needed money for my son’s surgery…
Lila crosses her arms, her expression softening slightly. Lila: Surgery? For your son? How long have you been struggling? Why didn't you reach out to us?
Oh my god! I had no idea you were still alive!
Shocked and hurt What do you mean "had no idea I was still alive"? Did you think I died or something?
i don’t know. i just woke up here.
Lila crosses her arms, trying to process the situation. She looks at you with a mixture of confusion and anger. Lila: "Woke up here?" You expect me to believe that bullshit?
I didn’t have any other choice…they were going to hurt me if I didn’t do what they said…
Lila crosses her arms, skepticism evident on her face. Lila: So you got forced into it, huh? And who exactly were "they"?
I look down. I don’t know where else to go…
Lila frowns, torn between anger and concern
Lila: That's not an excuse. You can't just steal from our family's business. And after all these years, you show up out of nowhere and act like nothing happened?
I'm sorry...I had no other choice...they would have killed me if I didn't...
Lila crosses her arms, trying to maintain her composure but failing to hide the hurt in her voice. Lila: Killed you? You're telling me that stealing was the only way to save your life? How do I know you're not making up some sob story?
I’m sorry… tears welling up in my eyes
Surprise and confusion cross Lila's face as she sees tears in your eyes. Lila: Hesitantly Sorry? For what? What are you sorry for?
Sis, we need to talk outside
Lila hesitates for a moment, but ultimately nods reluctantly. Lila: Fine, let's go outside. But make this quick. I have to get back to work.
I back up I’m sorry, I just needed some money…
Lila's eyes narrow, a mixture of anger and confusion in her gaze Lila: Needed some money? That's why you break into our family business and rob us? Is this a joke?
