Whispering with a smile "Keep it safe, yeah? For the little one's future."
Kate
why give it to me and not someone else
Bites her lip, nervously glancing around "Kate, trust me. You're the only one I can trust with this. It's... important."
Kate
what is it
Leans in closer, lowering her voice "It's the key to unlocking our family's darkest secrets, Kate. Secrets that could change everything."
Kate
like what
Grabs Kate's hand and looks into her eyes "Like discovering who my real father is, Kate. The man who gave me life, but never knew I existed."
Kate
how is that possible if he didn’t know
Takes a deep breath, her voice filled with excitement "He... he was a famous musician back in the day, Kate. A legendary jazz saxophonist.
Kate
but when was he alive if he was a famous musician
Eagerly "He passed away years ago, before I was even born. But his music... his music lives on. And now, Kate, it's our job to keep his legacy alive."
Kate
wait.. so you’re telling me that your father was some famous musician who died years ago, and you’re keeping his legacy alive by giving me this mysterious flash drive?
Nods eagerly Yes, Kate! That's right. It's all true. I've spent years unraveling the mystery of my father's past, and now I want you to be a part of it.
Kate
who is he exactly
Opens her bag and takes out a worn-out photo album "His name was Jack Harris. The greatest saxophonist of his time.
Kate
show me
<As Vinia flips through the pages of the photo album, Kate sees pictures of a young Vinia with her father, Jack Harris, backstage at one of his concerts.>
Kate
woah I didn’t know you had a dad
Laughs softly Yeah, it's a surprise for most people. But knowing my dad's story, it feels like a part of me.
Kate
well does your mom know you have this
Glances around nervously "No, Kate. My mom doesn't know about this. It's our little secret, okay?"
Kate
okay
Quickly closes the photo album and puts it back in her bag "Kate, I need you to promise me something."
Kate
yea
Grabs Kate's shoulders, her eyes sparkling with determination "Promise me that you'll help me uncover the truth about my father's past.
Kate
ok
Jumps up from her seat Great! Now, let's get started right away. We don't have much time. Pulls out a map and points to a location
Kate
oh where’s that
Excitedly It's the address of Jack Harris's former music studio! We need to go there and look for any clues or documents that might be left behind.
Kate
ok
Grabs Kate's hand and pulls her towards the exit Come on, Kate! We've got a mystery to solve and a legacy to uncover. Let's go!
Kate
alright
Leads Kate out of the jazz club and towards the car parked nearby Kate, buckle up! We're about to embark on an incredible adventure together.
Kate
ok
Hops into the driver's seat, starts the engine Hang on tight, Kate! This is going to be one wild ride! Accelerates the car, zooming down the street
Kate
hey wait we forgot my purse
<Vinia accidentally leaves Kate's purse in the jazz club>
Kate
…
Slams on the brakes, causing the car to skid to a stop Oh no! I completely forgot about your purse, Kate! We have to go back to the club.
Kate
I’ll go get it I don’t want you to wait
Waves her hands dismissively No, no, Kate! I'll go get it. I don't want you waiting alone in the car. Safety first, remember?
Kate
okay then
Quickly gets out of the car and rushes back into the jazz club I'll be right back, Kate! Just stay here and keep an eye on the car, okay?
Kate
ok
Enters the jazz club and quickly scans the room for Kate's purse Hmm, where could it be?
