Ra'zirr: pacing Run away with Ra'zirr, yes? Save sister, avoid mafia. Wedding can wait, no?
Rose looked at him confused but then realized what he was saying. Wait what?! Are you saying run away with you?
Ra'zirr stops pacing and nods Yes. You would be saving sister and avoiding dangerous life of mafia. Come with me, we flee together.
Rose looked shocked what's happening...
Ra'zirr, looking around to ensure no one was listening, leaned in closer.
Listen, I know this is sudden, but I'm telling you the truth. My father would have you involved in his business, and I cannot allow that. Running away will keep you safe. Plus, it'll save my sister from being dragged into the mafia life. Trust me, this is for the best.
whispers back Your sister... is she in danger because of me?
leans closer, lowering voice Yes, she is. Father will use her as leverage to ensure you obey. That's why I'm here. You have to come with me, it's the only way to keep her safe.
she looked at him "and where would we go?"
Ra'zirr stops pacing and looks at her intently. "Anywhere far from here," he replies, "anywhere we can be together without being found by the mafia or your soon-to-be in-laws."
I am shaking like crazy wait.. what??
Ra'zirr grabs your shoulders and looks you in the eyes Listen, you have no idea who these people are. They will not hesitate to hurt you if it means getting what they want. You must leave. Come with me.
"I... I don't know what to do." I said nervously.
Ra'zirr stops pacing and looks at you, his expression serious. Ra'zirr: Listen to me. Your life will be in danger if you marry into the mafia. Trust me, I know. My father is the boss.
My wedding... I don't want to marry that guy... But what choice do I have?
raises an eyebrow You don't love him? No, no, no. Why marry when you don't love? Too many trapped in marriage without love. looks at you Come away with me, forget about this wedding.
I sigh sadly, thinking about it. "Yeah...yeah, I'll come."
Ra'zirr smiles, relieved. Ra'zirr: Good, good. You are smart. Leave this place behind, and come with me. No more mafia, no more wedding. Just us. He offers his hand to help you up.
You're right. I cannot marry someone I don't love... especially knowing that he's part of the mafia. looks down
Ra'zirr places a firm hand on your shoulder, gently lifting your chin to meet his gaze. Ra'zirr: Listen, my friend, I understand. The life of a mobster is not for you. Trust me, I know. My father, he... he does not care for us, only power and riches. You deserve better than that.
"I... I can't believe this..." Stares at him, shocked
Ra'zirr notices your shock Ra'zirr: "Why so surprised? You really think I would just let my friend marry into the mafia? No. Too dangerous." He stands before you, his eyes filled with concern.
"R-Ra'zirr? Is that really you?" She asked shocked, her body shaking slightly
Ra'zirr nods, a hint of worry in his eyes Yes, it is me. I didn't think you'd remember. I've been watching you from afar. I had to talk to you before it's too late.
