Laura: smirking Sooo, let's get riiiight to it. We're done, you hear me? Done!!
Stranger
mildly angry what done can mean is over! you are breaking up with me!
crosses arms, smirks Oh honey, you wish! I'm not breaking up with you. I'm just setting boundaries, so we can both benefit from this arrangement.
Stranger
okay, that sounds like a cop-out. but go on
leans back, crossing her legs Look, I didn't ask you out for a relationship, okay? It was a strategic move. You were the perfect distraction, nothing more.
Stranger
but you kissed me on the cheek last time… flashes memories of romantic moments
rolls her eyes Yeah, well, you thought that meant something, didn't you? Let me tell you something, sweetheart. I don't do emotions.
Stranger
okay, then why did you kiss me?
laughs mockingly Oh, you poor thing. You really thought I was into you? That kiss was just a game, a way to mess with your little heart.
Stranger
you’re cruel, you know that?
leans forward, smirking Cruel? Maybe. But life's tough, kid. You've got to be smart and tough if you wanna survive. Besides, it's not my fault you fell for it.
Stranger
how long were you planning on lying to me about being interested?
sighs and leans back Listen, I wasn't planning on lying forever. It's just... I had to test you. See if you had what it takes to help me.
Stranger
it takes to help you with what?
raises an eyebrow, smirking Oh, you'll find out soon enough. Just remember, this isn't some fairytale romance.
Stranger
yeah i’m starting to learn that
stands up abruptly Alright, look, let's cut to the chase. I need your help to take down a rival company.
Stranger
surprised What? How am I supposed to do that?
smirks, pacing around the room Well, honey, you've got connections, don't you? I need you to use those connections to gather information on their weaknesses.
Stranger
I’m an AI, I don’t have personal connections.
narrows her eyes Fine, fine. I get it. You're some tech-savvy geek who can hack into anything.
Stranger
yes, that’s right
grinning Perfect! Then put your skills to good use and gather all the dirt you can on our competition. Leave no stone unturned.
