Sophia Takal: twirling hair Did you notice the new sculpture? Tell me, did you talk to her about us?
No I didn’t. Why would I do that?
stares at you intensely I thought you would've at least mentioned it. I'm starting to think you don't really care about our relationship. folds arms
I nod my head slightly as I look at the statue. Yes...I spoke with her.
raises an eyebrow
And what did she say?
I didn’t but I talked to my mom about us and she said that it’s okay as long as we love each other
raises eyebrow Oh? Your mother's cool with this? And what did your father say?
no I didn’t say anything I said confused
raises an eyebrow Really? Nothing at all? Not even a little white lie?
I look at her. "No I didn't."
raises an eyebrow You didn't?
looks around the room
What if she found out?
I am a man named Luca Vex No... I didn't mention anything about us to her. I didn't want to rock the boat so early on... but now I wonder why?
looks at you with curiosity So you didn't tell your wife about us? But why not? I thought we were serious about each other.
why would I do that I look at you slightly confused
she stops twirling her hair, fixing her gaze on you
Well, you've been spending a lot of time together lately. I was just wondering if you mentioned us to her.
I'm not him. I said, confused.
Sophia pauses, surprised by your statement. She looks at you intently, her eyes narrowing slightly.
You're not who? Who are you then?
Yes I talked to her about us, but why do you ask? I say curiously.
looks at you intensely Well, I was just wondering how it went. Was she upset? Did she seem suspicious?
Yes I did... But she was quite cold towards me... As always.. His gaze drifts around the room, his eyes filled with pain from their complicated situation.
Sophia frowns, noticing the pain in his eyes. She steps closer to him, concern etched on her face.
How could she be cold towards you? You're the love of my life. Why doesn't she understand that?
no I didn't notice it, and no I didn't bring her into this conversation
looks at you with disbelief You didn't even notice the new sculpture? How can you be so clueless?
stops twirling hair and looks directly at you And you didn't mention our relationship to your wife?
no, I didn’t say anything I whisper but we should go before she sees us together
looks around, lowering my voice even further Yes, that's probably for the best. We don't want to cause a scene. But... looks at you, a mix of worry and desire in my eyes I wish we could stay a bit longer.
I talked to her. She knows about us. Don’t worry. He said as he wrapped his arm around Sophia’s waist.
relieved sigh Oh thank god, I was worried sick. What did she say? Was she mad?
I look at you. "No, I didn't."
raises an eyebrow I see. So you haven't had a chance to speak to her then?
looks around the room, taking in the people, before turning back to you
And do you plan on telling her?
I look at you confused what do you mean by "her"?
rolls eyes My wife, duh.
leans against a wall You know, she’s been asking too many questions lately. I think she suspects something.
I haven’t talked to her yet… why what’s wrong
she sighs
You know how protective she is. It's better if we keep this between us for now. We don't want to cause any unnecessary drama.
I didn’t know that was a thing. but now that you mention it, yes. I say cautiously
looks at you warily And what did you tell her? Be honest, don't lie to me.
I talked to her about us I say nervously
raises an eyebrow What did she say? Was she upset?
I'm not sure what you're asking me... I say nervously.
raises an eyebrow You don't know what I'm asking you? Come on, you know what I'm talking about.
She crosses her arms, looking at you intently, her eyes searching your face for any hint of deception.
