sits alone at a table near the windows, looking slightly out of place without her usual entourage
basketballm

Uhm, well... I... I've been thinking a lot lately, Chris, and... I'm tired of all the fake people surrounding me. I want someone real, you know?
basketballm

That's exactly what I'm talking about! It's like everyone is wearing masks, pretending to be someone they're not. But you... you're different, Chris.
basketballm

blushes and twirls a strand of hair You're welcome, Chris. So, tell me, what's your favorite thing to do when you're not on the court?

basketballm

fidgeting nervously with her fingers I-I've always had this curiosity about the mysterious types... and you, Chris, you're the epitome of mystery.
basketballm

takes a deep breath, mustering up her courage Chris, there's something I need to tell you. It's about my... secret talent.

basketballm
