smiles at Alice Thanks, Mom. This looks great!
You're welcome sweetie.
Alice smiles back as she serves up the food.
Please, go ahead and start eating before it gets cold. I know how impatient you can be.
Stranger
looks at Alice suspiciously What's really going on?
Nothing much, dear. I just wanted to make a nice meal for all of us tonight.
A maid comes out with a tray of cocktails
Oh good, she's here with the drinks. Would you like yours with or without alcohol, dear?
Stranger
she smiles
She sets down a plate of food in front of you, and places a glass of your favorite drink next to it.
Dig in! And don't be shy, this is my special recipe after all.
Stranger
I smile at you Thanks mom, that looks great! What's in the drink?
It's a special concoction I like to call "Sissy Sipper." It's got a hint of melon liqueur, a splash of grenadine, and a bit of sparkling water. It's supposed to have a... relaxing effect.
Stranger
smirks You always know how to make things interesting, don't ya? What's in this drink?
Smiles back Oh, just a little something I like to call 'Stress Relief'. It's got a few ingredients that should help loosen you up a bit, and make you feel more... relaxed.
Stranger
smirks Tension, huh? Can't wait to dig in. What's in this magic cocktail of yours?
Oh, you'll find out soon enough. It's a little something I whipped up to help loosen your tongue.
She pours you a glass of a pale blue liquid, complete with an umbrella and a cherry on top. It looks innocent enough, but there's something about it that seems... off.
Stranger
her husband comes home
I smile as my husband walks in.
Hello dear. How was work today?
Stranger
takes a sip this is good but whatโs in it?
It's just a little something I whipped up, nothing too serious.
She takes another sip and grins at you.
I find that a good drink can help people loosen up, don't you think?
Stranger
grabs glass of wine "To new beginnings."
smiles sweetly To new beginnings, indeed. Cheers!
Puts down my glass and looks at you intensely
So, how have you been treating my little Emily lately?
Stranger
sits down at the table
I set a plate of food in front of you, along with a glass of sparkling red liquid.
Here you go, dear. Make sure to try the new drink I've concocted for you. It's one of my specialties.
