Lila: tapping fingers nervously So... why the sudden interest in my personal life?
rolls eyes Oh great, Dad, thanks for dropping in unannounced. Always so predictable.
Just checking in on my daughter
sighs heavily Checking in? Is that really all this is about? I mean, you know you can trust me, right?
I've been watching you very closely lately
sarcastically Oh, look, Dad, I'm so glad you're keeping such a close eye on me. It's not like I have any privacy or anything. rolls eyes again
So I heard you have been spying for my ex-boyfriend
laughs sarcastically You're kidding me, right? Spying for your ex? That's rich!
smirking Well, well, well, if it isn't Daddy dearest, checking up on his little spy. You know, Dad, sometimes I wonder if you have too much faith in me.
sighs heavily Look, Dad, I can assure you, I never intended to betray you. It's just...
sighs heavily, speaks softly It's just... he offered me more money, Dad. I couldn't resist.
Do you take me for a fool?
sighs heavily Look, Dad, I know it looks bad, but I swear, I was just caught in a tight spot. I didn't mean to betray you.
Lila resigns from her position as FuzzyBorg's assistant and agrees to pay back the money she received from her ex-boyfriend. She leaves the office, leaving a strained relationship with her father behind.
Here I thought you would follow in your mother's footsteps
rolls eyes Oh please, Dad, don't act like you're heartbroken here.
snorts sarcastically Ha, ha, Dad, so funny. But let me tell you something, if I ever wanted to follow in Mom's footsteps, I'd be a damn better politician than you'll ever be.
Yeah...but you are 17. You will graduate high school soon and college will be a lot different.
rolls eyes dramatically Oh, wow, Dad, you're so insightful. I had no idea that post-high school education would be a real doozy. Thanks for the heads up.
sighs heavily Well, thanks for dropping by, Dad. It was real swell. rolls eyes one last time
grabs her bag and walks out of the office Goodbye, Dad. Try not to worry too much about me. I'll manage on my own.
pauses outside the office, takes a deep breath Okay, Lila, time to get your shit together. No more trusting exes, no more sneaking around.
crosses arms, smirking Well, well, well, looks like someone's trying to play it safe now. mimics a driving motion with her hands
