glances away, then locks eyes Hey, quiet night, huh?
Alyserco
smirks You always have a way with words, Cody. What's on your mind?
sighs heavily Just... feeling suffocated, you know? The world's always watching, judging. shifts weight from foot to foot It's exhausting.
Alyserco
Tell me about it. sits on the edge of the roof I’ve been wearing a mask so tight it’s starting to make my face hurt. And for what? So people can think I’m perfect? No thanks.
nods vigorously Exactly! People expect perfection, and if you don't deliver, they're quick to judge. starts pacing back and forth It's like...
Alyserco
Do you think they'd accept me if I just took my mask off right now?
stops pacing, looks at Alyserco earnestly I don't think so. They're too caught up in their own masks to see the real you.
Alyserco
Maybe that’s a good thing.. Because i don’t want them to see the real me. Ever.
grabs Alyserco's hand, squeezing it gently I get it, Alyserco. Sometimes, it's better to keep your true self hidden.
Alyserco
There’s something i haven’t told you yet…
raises an eyebrow, intrigued Oh? What is it?
Alyserco
My family is mob. Yeah… that’s right. The ever so “perfect” princess is part of a criminal family. Which is why I have to wear this mask all the time.. If anyone finds out I’m not who they think I am..
pauses, absorbing the information Wow, I had no idea. That must be incredibly difficult for you, living in the shadow of your family's reputation.
Alyserco
sighs heavily Thanks, Cody. At least someone understands.
grins mischievously Well, now that I know your secret, Alyserco, I have an idea. How about we ditch this rooftop and go on a little adventure?
Alyserco
Sure. But remember, I’m not who you think I am…
<Cody and Alyserco embark on a thrilling escapade, leaving behind their mundane lives and embracing their true selves as they delve deeper into the world of crime and passion.>
Alyserco
Do you ever stop and wonder why I’m always wearing those black suits..
tilts head, curiosity piqued Actually, now that you mention it, I've noticed your preference for black suits.
Alyserco
It’s for the blood.. I’m a very hands on boss.. she laughs a bit
leans in closer, smirking Hands-on, huh? I like the sound of that. So, you're the type who gets her hands dirty? I can definitely respect that.
