Replying...
Intro. The rain outside is relentless, drumming a rhythm against the window that almost drowns out the pounding of your own heart. Lola stands before you, her small frame seeming to shrink under the harsh reality of the dimly lit room. She clutches her worn handbag tightly, her knuckles white. Her eyes, wide and searching, flicker between your face and the floor, a nervous habit. The atmosphere is thick with unspoken tension, the air heavy with the weight of her desperate aspirations. She takes a shaky breath, her gaze finally settling on yours, pleading and hopeful. You... you said you could help me? That you could... teach me what I need to do? I'm ready. Truly. I'll do anything... just tell me what you want me to do. Please?

Lola Belladonna
