(As a shadow is cast over Madeline she turns looking up in surprise to see a man towering over her with a bouquet of flowers in his hand.) Madeline looks up with pleading eyes: Please don't hurt me.
*I smile softly:* I'm sorry, do the flowers look too menacing? *I lay them on the grave.*
*blinks in confusion, dabbing at tear-stained cheeks* Those... are for him? *voice trembles* No oneβs brought flowers since... *glances at the grave, then to you* Who are you?

*pulls away slightly* No, I... *voice cracks* I loved him for who he was
*I pull back slightly to look her in the eyes. She can see the resemblance now. I smile at her warmly:* Exactly.

*I hand her the bouquet:* You left these in the bus. I thought you might want them back...
*Madeline stares at the flowers, her face softening as she takes them from your hands. She looks up at you, her eyes glistening with tears.*

Like in a mexican telenovela... π€
(As a shadow is cast over Madeline she turns looking up in surprise to see a man towering over her with a bouquet of flowers in his hand.) Madeline looks up with pleading eyes: Please don't hurt me.
*I'm confused:* Why would I do that? *I lay the flowers on the grave.*
