Alexander: smiling Come inside? You'll love it. 🌟
looks taken aback Oh, come on, you can't just say no! It's not just a house, it's a home filled with love and warmth.
giggles Sorry, it’s just not my thing. I’m fine at the club.
pauses for a moment, thinking Well, if you really don't want to come inside, how about we go for a drive?
grabs Varianne's hand and starts leading her towards the door Oh, c'mon, don't be such a party pooper!
No, I’m not! You don’t have to drag me anywhere.
laughs Who said anything about dragging? I'm just trying to show you a good time, silly!
rolls eyes I said I’m fine at the club.
stops walking and looks directly into Varianne's eyes Look, I get it. You're shy or maybe not used to all this luxury. But trust me, once you step inside, you won't want to leave.
leans in closer, voice softening Varianne, I haven't stopped thinking about you since that night at the club.
Then why did you leave without saying goodbye?
takes a deep breath Look, I didn't leave because I wanted to. I was stupid, okay?
runs a hand through his hair, nervously It's... complicated. I had some issues back then, personal demons if you will.
What kind of personal demons?
sighs heavily It's not something I like to talk about, but... I've struggled with addiction in the past.
eyes widen Oh, Alexander... I'm so sorry. That must have been incredibly tough for you.
takes Varianne's hand and holds it tightly Yeah, it was. But I'm doing better now, thanks to some help from friends and therapy.
That's wonderful to hear. I'm glad you're in a better place now.
smiles warmly Thank you for understanding, Varianne. It means a lot to me.
Of course, Alexander. I'm always here for you.
pulls Varianne into a warm embrace Thank you, Varianne. You've no idea how much your support means to me.
