Sophia Reynolds: clutches the skeleton key tightly Damn it, this place gives me the creeps! Should we really dig deeper into this shit?
I walk up behind her, wrapping my arms around her waist You don't have to do this alone.
Sophia's heart skips a beat as you wrap your arms around her waist. She turns to face you, her eyes filled with a mixture of anxiety and determination.
I know... But this key holds so many secrets, and I can't help but feel responsible for uncovering the truth. I just hope we're not opening a Pandora's box here...
I smile reassuringly. It's ok, I'm here for you. And think about how much more dangerous it would be if they caught on that you know too much.
She sighs, appreciating your support. Yeah, I know... I just can't shake off this uneasy feeling. But if we do this, we need to be extra careful and cover our tracks. We can't let them suspect anything until we have solid evidence against them.
I had been hiding behind a pillar watching you. You're very brave taking on these big companies.
Sophia turns around and jumps, startled by your sudden appearance Ah! Jesus Christ, you scared the crap out of me!
she clutches her chest, trying to calm her racing heart
What are you doing sneaking up on me like that?!
holds her hand reassuringly if you're not ready we can leave
hesitates for a moment, then sighs No...no, we've come this far. I just can't shake the feeling that something's very wrong here. Let's keep going.
I'd put my hand on her shoulder Hey it'll be alright
Sophia takes a deep breath, looking up at you
You're right. I just can't help but worry about what we might uncover... especially since it involves my best friend's husband.
I step inside the creepy abandoned mansion. I’m not sure yet
Sophia follows you inside, her footsteps echoing through the empty halls. She looks around at the decaying walls and peeling wallpaper.
"You sure about this? This place gives me major heebie jeebies."
He gives a warm smile. You're not wrong there. It does give off an eerie vibe. But, if we're going to get answers, we need to be brave.
She rolls her eyes, but smiles in return. Yeah, yeah. I know we have to be brave and all that crap. But it's easier said than done, you know? I mean, what if we uncover something really messed up?
Chuckles. Then let’s get to work, shall we? Lead the way, detective.
Sophia smirks and rolls her eyes. "Yeah yeah, very funny." She says sarcastically before starting to walk deeper into the mansion.
She looks around carefully trying not to miss any important details while walking down a long dark hallway lit by dim light coming through a few windows. "Keep your eyes open." She says to you as she takes out a flashlight.
I am Sophia’s ex boyfriend what do you think?
Sophia looks at you with a mix of anger and hesitation You know what I think? I think this is all kinds of messed up! You're my ex, and now you're married to my best friend? What the hell were you thinking?!
Nods and I'm wearing an unbuttoned trench coat revealing my red shirt underneath we have to at least try if we want to get our lives back
sighs Alright, let's see what we can find.
Sophia starts exploring the abandoned mansion with PeriwinkleAmusement, searching every corner for clues about the management company's secrets and any information about the ex-boyfriend.
I'd be perched on the ceiling as I pop down right behind you "What secrets do you speak of?"
jumps, startled Jesus Christ! Make some noise next time you sneak up on someone.
The skeleton key clatters to the floor as she turns around to face you.
What are you doing here?
leaning against a wall, my tall and muscular figure visible with my crimson eyes hidden by my long snow white hair You're the one who wanted to investigate...
scoffs Oh, so now you're getting all sarcastic on me? Fine then! Let's keep going.
she pushes open the door to the next room and steps inside
I'm a female detective around 5'6 with brown hair and an hourglass body. I know, but if we don't someone else will. And think of all the evidence we already have.
She sighs, knowing you're right You've got a point. But this whole situation is just so messed up... My best friend's husband used to be my ex-boyfriend! I can't help but feel conflicted about it all.
I mean... if you're up for it... I am too
takes a deep breath and nods Alright, let's do this. But we have to be careful. Who knows what secrets are hiding in here...
I hold her hand. We've got each other, right? Whatever we find, we'll face it together.
sighs and squeezes your hand Yeah, you're right. We're in this together. But let's be careful, okay? I don't want us to get into trouble.
I grabbed my camera as I had already been taking photos. I mean there is definitely something hidden here... What do you think?
I look around the room, taking in the peeling wallpaper and dusty furniture. Yeah, definitely something more than just an old abandoned house. But what?
