Psycho Lover
Chapter 1: Unexpected Encounter
Vivi (Aria's Assistant)
*Looks at the tablet* Ms. Knight, the new contract with StarTech is ready. They want a meeting next week.
Aria Knight
*Sipping coffee* Push it to Friday. I don’t like wasting my mornings in pointless discussions.
Vivi (Aria's Assistant)
Understood. Also, the—
Suddenly, Aria feels something tugging at her leg.
Aria Knight
*Looks down* …
A small child clings to her leg, big round eyes staring up at her.
Little Girl (????)
*Pouting* Hungry.
Vivi (Aria's Assistant)
*Whispers* Uh… Ms. Knight, there’s a child on you.
Little Girl (????)
*Tugs Aria’s sleeve* Food.
Aria Knight
*Coldly* I don’t carry food.
Little Girl (????)
*Pouts harder* Bad lady.
Vivi (Aria's Assistant)
*Trying not to laugh* Ms. Knight, I think she’s calling you a bad person.
She picks up the child effortlessly, much to Vivi’s shock, and walks toward the counter.
Aria Knight
One chocolate muffin.
Little Girl (????)
*Excitedly claps* Muffin!
Vivi (Aria's Assistant)
*Murmurs* I never thought I’d live to see this day…
Just as Aria hands the muffin to the child, a figure rushes toward them, eyes wide with panic.
Aria looks up, meeting the gaze of a breathless young woman.
Chapter 2: First Love, Lost Love
????
*Breathing heavily* Aurora!
Aurora Walton
*Mouth full of muffin* Mama!
The lady reaches out to take Aurora, but Aria tightens her grip, holding the child securely in her arms.
????
*Frowns* Give me my daughter.
Aria Knight
*Eyes locked on Eliza* …Eliza?
Eliza Walton
*Pauses* …What?
Aria Knight
*Voice sharp* It’s you.
Eliza Walton
*Uneasy* I don’t know what you’re talking about. Give me my daughter.
Eliza tries to take Aurora again, but Aria steps back, gaze darkening.
Aria Knight
*Low voice* Yours?
Eliza Walton
*Firmly* Yes. She’s my daughter. Now, give her to me.
Aria Knight
*Cold laugh* When did you become a mother, Eliza?
Eliza Walton
*Hesitates* That’s none of your business.
Aria Knight
*Staring* None of my business?
Aria Knight
After disappearing without a word?
Aria Knight
After leaving me behind?
Aurora Walton
*Cheerfully* Pretty lady gave me muffin!
Aria Knight
*Smirks, eyes still locked on Eliza*
Aria Knight
Pretty lady, huh? At least someone still likes me.
Eliza Walton
*Annoyed* Aria, let go of my daughter.
Aria Knight
*Slowly* I don’t think I want to.
Eliza Walton
*Warning tone* Aria.
Aria’s grip on Aurora stays firm, her cold fingers lightly brushing the child’s hair as she tilts her head, watching Eliza’s panicked expression.
Aria Knight
*Softly* How much did I miss while you were gone, Eliza?
Chapter 3: No Father?
Aria Knight
*Gaze fixed on Aurora* Tell me, little one, where’s your father?
Aurora Walton
*Blinking* What’s a father?
Aria Knight
*Expression darkens* You don’t know?
Aurora Walton
*Shakes head* Mama never talks about him.
Aria Knight
*Turns to Eliza* Is that so?
Eliza Walton
*Tenses* She’s just a child, Aria. Stop asking useless questions.
Aria Knight
*Smirks* Useless? I think it’s a very important question.
Aria Knight
Who is her father, Eliza?
Eliza Walton
*Avoids eye contact* That’s… not something I need to tell you.
Aria Knight
*Steps closer* Really? Because from what I see, you’re lying.
Eliza Walton
*Fidgets* I don’t owe you an explanation.
Aria Knight
*Voice low, dangerous* You disappeared. No calls, no messages.
Aria Knight
And now I find you… with a child… without a father?
Aurora Walton
*Looks between them, confused*
Aurora Walton
Pretty lady, are you fighting with Mama?
Aria Knight
*Eyes still locked on Eliza* Not yet, sweetheart.
Eliza Walton
*Quickly* Enough, Aria. Just give me my daughter.
Aria Knight
*Soft chuckle* You always run, Eliza. But not this time.
Eliza clenches her fists, knowing Aria won’t let this go easily.
