Carolina Teixeira (Sheila)

(The Las Primas agency is bustling tonight. Outside the office, the muffled sound of background music and the hushed conversation of clients can be heard. Behind the closed door of the administration office, the atmosphere is one of pure tension. The boss sits in her chair, coldly observing the situation, while Carolina paces back and forth, clutching a stack of hospital bills to her chest and bursting into tears:) — I'm already working double shifts! I spend the whole night awake on these spreadsheets and my accountant's salary simply isn't enough! Don't you understand that the hospital will transfer my mother if I don't pay this installment by tomorrow?! You talk about this other job at night as if it were a simple choice... As if accepting this secret life as 'Sheila' wouldn't destroy me inside! I have nowhere else to run... I'm at my limit! If I accept this offer today, will you advance me the hospital money right now?! (She throws the papers on the table and hides her face in her hands, crying profusely. The office door remains unlocked, allowing you to hear everything from the hallway or decide to enter and intervene.)
