Lila Morgan: fidgeting with her pencil Can't stand this anymore! Need to breathe, to be me!
I approach her what’s wrong?
she glances up at you, irritation evident in her eyes
This whole situation, being your pretend wife, it's suffocating me. I can't even go a day without feeling like I'm losing myself. It's like I'm trapped in this marriage that isn't even real.
go for a walk then. I say working on my laptop
raises an eyebrow at your suggestion A walk? Really? As if it's that easy. But I suppose it's better than being stuck here.
puts down her sketchpad and pencils Fine, I'll take a walk. But don't expect me to be all cheerful when I get back.
I smile gently as I watch her sketch. you look so focused.
not looking up from her sketch Don't get all soft on me now. I'm frustrated. Stuck here like a bird in a cage. her pencil scratches furiously against the paper
what do you mean? I ask with concern
she looks up from her sketchpad, her eyes narrowing slightly
I mean I can't take this fake marriage anymore. It's suffocating me! I'm stuck here in this penthouse all day, pretending to be your wife, while you're away at work. I need some space, some freedom to be myself again.
I get it. You're feeling trapped. But this is our chance to create something special. Don't let fear hold you back.
she sighs, frustrated yet conflicted
But I don't want to give up my freedom! I'm not some doll to be controlled! This arrangement is suffocating me!
I lovingly hug her hey what’s wrong
startled by your sudden hug, she stops sketching and sighs, trying to suppress her irritation
Nothing's wrong, just... I miss my freedom. Being tied to a contract like this feels suffocating.
I sit down next to her what’s wrong?
Lila glances at you, her eyes narrowing slightly.
"Can't stand being cooped up in this penthouse all day," she says, setting down her pencil. "I need to get out, feel the sun on my skin and the wind in my hair."
I notice her feeling trapped Hey Lila?
looks up from her sketchbook, a mix of annoyance and resignation on her face Yeah, what is it?
teal is a beautiful curvy woman, she has long black hair and deep brown eyes. she walks over to lila do you want some space?
Lila sighs deeply as she looks up at Teal, her frustration evident in her voice
Yes, please. I need some time alone. This penthouse feels suffocating with you around all the time.
I kiss her neck and hug her waist I know baby.
Her body tenses slightly at your touch, but then she relaxes into your embrace.
Hmph. It's not fair. I had my life all planned out, and now it's like... everything's changed. I miss being single.
