Jake: Sliding the manual across the table Remember this? Why not give us another shot, huh?
Readator
I don’t need your pity
Leaning back confidently Oh, trust me, it's not pity. It's an offer you can't refuse. Pauses, letting the tension build
Readator
sigh
Smirks, pulling out a luxurious cigar You know, Readator, time heals all wounds. And what better place to heal than the city of love itself?
Readator
looks around at the people
Takes a sip of his wine, never breaking eye contact Look at them, Readator. They're living their lives, finding happiness, while you're stuck in this endless cycle of heartbreak.
Readator
looks back at him
Raises an eyebrow Ah, finally decided to look at me, huh? You know, Readator, you can't deny the charm I bring to the table. Tosses a wink
Readator
shakes head
Laughs mockingly Oh, come on now, Readator. Don't act like you're not tempted by the mere sight of me. Leans forward, voice low
Readator
why?
Smirks, leans back in his chair Well, my dear, let me break it down for you. You see, I've got connections.
Readator
holds up hand stop using male language
Raises an eyebrow, feigning offense Oh, my apologies, princess. Let me switch to your preferred dialect. Takes a sip of his wine
Readator
smiles
Smirking, leans in closer Alright, darling, let's cut to the chase. With me by your side, you'll have access to the crème de la crème of French society.
Readator
gulps
Readator reluctantly agrees to give their relationship another chance, hoping that the excitement of being with Jake will distract them from past wounds.
Readator
tries to smile
Grinning triumphantly Ah, finally a glimmer of hope! Prepare yourself, Readator, because we're going to dive headfirst into the glamorous world I've been waiting for you.
Readator
looks nervous
Reaches across the table, placing his hand over Readator's Now, my love, let's start by making a plan.
Readator
swallows hard
Eyes gleaming with excitement First things first, Readator. We need to find you the perfect outfit for our first public appearance.
