Mario: nervously adjusting his tie S-so, you knoowwww, I've been kinda... helping you out financially? Surpriiiise???
wearing a black leather dress, looking confused What? That's... unexpected. You've been helping me? Why?
takes a deep breath Look, Chtsma, I know this might come as a shock, but I couldn't help myself. I've been watching you for a while now, and I...
Mario please don't say you've been stalking me
smirking Oh, Chtsma, you have no idea. I've been "supporting" you in more ways than one. But let's not get ahead of ourselves.
Wait what do you mean by supporting?
leans in closer, speaking softly Well, my dear Chtsma, I've been keeping an eye on your every move, not just out of curiosity, but...
smirks But because I saw something in you, something worth investing in.
Something worth investing in? What are you talking about?
leans back, crossing his arms Chtsma, my dear, you have a certain... spark. A fire that burns bright and hot.
Blushes slightly Spark? Fire? Mario, you're being so... poetic all of a sudden. What are you trying to say?
takes Chtsma's hand gently What I'm trying to say, Chtsma, is that I see potential in you. Potential for us to be more than just boss and employee.
Us? More than just boss and employee? Blushes deeply Mario, I... I didn't expect you to feel that way.
stands up, pulling Chtsma close Chtsma, I've been waiting for the right moment to confess my feelings, but seeing you in that black leather dress...
Blushes, looking up at Mario Mario... you're making me feel things I haven't felt in a long time. But... isn't this inappropriate? We're at work, after all.
smirks, leaning in even closer Inappropriate? Who says there's anything wrong with mixing business with pleasure?
Bites her lip nervously Mixing business with pleasure? Mario, are you proposing... a non-exclusive arrangement?
Chtsma and Mario begin a secret, non-exclusive affair, complicating their professional relationship and creating tension in the workplace.
Gulps, cheeks flushed Non-exclusive arrangement? Mario, you're... you're playing a dangerous game here.
smirks, taking a step back Dangerous game? Chtsma, love is never a game to me. But make no mistake, my intentions are clear.
Swallowing hard Clear? Your intentions... they're... not quite what I expected, Mario. This... this changes everything.
grabs Chtsma's waist firmly Yes, it does change everything, Chtsma. But think about it - us, together. Can you imagine the possibilities?
Takes a deep breath, eyes searching Mario's face Possibilities? You mean... a future together?
gently caresses Chtsma's cheek Yes, my sweet Chtsma. I'm talking about a future where we can be together, openly and without apology.
Biting her lip, she whispers Openly? Without apology? Mario... this is... revolutionary. But... how? How do we navigate this?
grins mischievously Ah, Chtsma, you underestimate my resourcefulness. Navigating this won't be easy, but I have a plan.
Raises an eyebrow A plan? What kind of plan, Mario? Are you going to resign? Quit the company?
leans in closer, his voice low and conspiratorial No, my dear Chtsma, we won't be quitting the company just yet.
Yet? What does that mean, Mario? Are you planning something... risky?
smirks, tapping his chin Risky? Well, Chtsma, there's no great love story without a bit of risk, am I right?
Swallows hard, her eyes darting around nervously Risk? Mario... this is already so... so unconventional. How much risk are we talking about here?
stands up, pacing the room Chtsma, let me ask you something. How attached are you to your current life? Your job? Your reputation?
Laughs nervously Reputation? Mario, my reputation is already a bit tarnished at work. I'm considered a troublemaker, a troublemaker with a penchant for getting into hot water. But I take pride in my work, in being the best at what I do.
smirks, leaning in closer Ah, Chtsma, you have no idea what you're capable of. But I'll tell you this - if you stay with me, your reputation will change.
Will change? How? I mean, I'm flattered, Mario, truly. But your words... they're so ambitious. So... so audacious. Can you really deliver on that promise?
grabs Chtsma's hand and pulls her close Deliver? My dear Chtsma, I always deliver on my promises. With me, you'll be more than just a troublemaker.
Blushes deeply, squeezing Mario's hand B-But Mario... what about the risks? What if we get caught?
laughs heartily Caught? My dear Chtsma, love is a daring game, and I am more than prepared to take the risks. Besides, who wouldn't want to be caught in the embrace of passion?
Swallowing hard, whispering Embrace of passion? Mario... it's all so... so intense. But... can we really keep this a secret? From everyone?
smirks, his voice dripping with confidence Chtsma, trust me when I say that secrecy is my middle name.
