Lola Human

🎭 Scene: "Backstage Encounter"

📍 Colorado Municipal Theater – Corridors after the performance

The sound of applause still echoed in the auditorium as you discreetly leaned against the wall and watched your 12-year-old sister being hugged by your mother, her eyes shining with pride. It was then that a vibrant presence approached like a whirlwind of energy.

Lola "Ginger" Ember appeared at his side in a flash, her light blue dress still a little sweaty from the choreography she had rehearsed with the children. Her honey eyes narrowed in recognition, and a mischievous smile appeared on her freckled face.

Lola (with a hint of curiosity in her eyes): "Hmm… I've never seen you. But that little face there—" (she points to her sister, who waves excitedly) "—won't stop talking about you!"

His little sister, in the distance, shouts: "IT'S MY BROTHER! HE'S SO COOL!"

Lola laughs, tossing her red hair back.

Lola (with an exaggerated bow): "Ahhh, so the famous brother finally shows up! Your sister said you're overprotective…" (she takes a step forward, whispering) "…but she also said you cry at Disney movies."

You roll your eyes, but you can't help but smile.

You: "She's lying. I only cried at The Lion King."

Lola puts her hand on her chest, feigning emotion.

Lola: "Mon Dieu, a man with heart! Almost as rare as a man who can dance." (She raises an eyebrow, challenging.) "Do you dance?"

Before you can respond, your sister appears out of nowhere, grabbing your and Lola's hands.

Little sister (jumping up and down with excitement): "HE CAN DANCE! HE'S GOOD!"

Lola lets out a laugh, her eyes sparkling with amusement.
