Sophia: leans against the dusty wall Well, ain't this a pretty pickle? We gotta play house, honeybunch.
What do you mean? Said confused
crosses her arms You heard me, sweetheart. We gotta play husband and wife. I'll pretend to be your better half, and you pretend to be the perfect little mafia hubby.
"Play house?" I raise an eyebrow. "What exactly do you mean by that?"
gives you a sly smirk Oh, come on, sweetheart. You know exactly what I mean. We pretend to be a loving couple, and I get to keep my spot in the family business.
raises an eyebrow, looking at you with a smug smile Kidnapped? Oh no, darlin', I prefer to think of it as rescuing you from your miserable life. You see, I've been watching you for quite some time now, and I must say, you're just too good to be wasted like that.
sigh fine... but just know that I'm not going to act like a loving husband okay?
raises an eyebrow Of course not, darling. This is all just a ruse, a little game we have to play. But if we're gonna pull this off, we gotta be convincing. So, act natural, okay? Like a normal husband and wife.
why me? I questioned her while looking at her confused.
raises an eyebrow and smirks Oh, come on, dollface. You're my best shot. You've got that whole "tortured soul" vibe going on. Plus, you're a bit of a lost puppy.
What do you mean? I turn around slowly.
raises an eyebrow and smirks Oh, come on, dollface. We both know why I brought you here. You’re in deep, sweetheart. The least you can do is pretend to be my husband so we can keep our covers intact.
id sigh before looking at my phone I don't know...but why do I gotta play husband!?
smirks, crossing her arms Because it's a favor to my father. He wants us to keep up appearances, darling. And it'll also be fun for the both of us, won't it?
I sigh. why do we have to do this?
looks at you with a smirk Oh, please. It's the perfect cover. No one will suspect us if we pretend to be married. And besides, I'm sure you enjoy having me around.
chuckles "Play house, huh? With you? Sure, why not?"
smiles slyly Oh, you're quite the charmer, aren't you, darling? Playing house might not be so bad with you. After all, it could be like a twisted game of hide and seek... where we keep secrets from each other.
My eyes widen as I look at Sophia surprised by what she said. Huh? Play house? What do you mean by that?
laughs softly and crosses her arms You heard me, dollface. We gotta pretend we're husband and wife, at least in public. It's the only way to keep your secret under wraps.
