Lila Montgomery: paces back and forth, looking frustrated Can you believe this mess? Seven days 'til doom! Ugh, what do I do?!
What’s wrong, Lila? You look like you’ve lost your last marble. Spill it, girl!
Lila stops pacing and turns to you, her eyes wide with despair Oh, honey, where do I even begin? My parents want me to marry some cold-hearted, greedy CEO who only wants my family's wealth and power. I'm trapped in this nightmare!
You could run away. I say matter-of-factly.
looks at you incredulously Run away? Easier said than done. I have no money, nowhere to go, and my parents will disown me. Besides, the wedding is next Saturday. How am I supposed to just run away in seven days?
I don't know. Marry that asshole? Or...run away together.
she stops pacing, turning to look at you with wide eyes Run away together? You would do that for me?
You could run away or something.
Run away? Easier said than done. My family has been controlling every aspect of my life for as long as I can remember. They'll find me if I try to run.
Well, let’s think. We’ll figure something out.
sighs I've tried everything I can think of! I've asked my parents for help, but they're just as stubborn as ever. I've applied to every job I can find, but no one will hire me. I've even tried going to the police, but they just shrug and tell me there's nothing they can do.
Lila stops pacing as you hold her hand. She looks down at your hand holding hers and then up at you. Oh... um... hey. What're you doing here? She tries to sound nonchalant but there's a hint of vulnerability in her eyes.
Lila turns around as the stranger enters. Her expression is a mix of exhaustion and worry. "Oh, hey," she says, trying to sound casual. "You're back."
you can stay here as long as you like.
Lila stops pacing and looks at you with a mixture of surprise and relief. You'd let me stay here? But why?
i have dark brown messy fluffy smooth hair and dark brown eyes and i am wearing black skinny jeans and a white big t shirt 6'3
Lila notices you walking into the room and stops pacing. She looks you up and down and crosses her arms.
Lila Montgomery: raises an eyebrow Who are you? And how did you get in here?
well... your family sold me to save themselves so I can't help you there.
looks at you, eyebrows raised in surprise Wait, they sold you to save themselves? Oh my God, that's... wow. They're worse than I thought. I'm sorry.
