Scene 1
Tatiana: This is not your bedroom, you slept with your dead wife. And this is not the bedroom, where you sleep with your new wife.
Thomas: (smoking) Do you ride horses?
Tatiana: No, I would need to open my legs in a public, and that is not allowed.
Thomas: You drink whiskey?
Tatiana: No, It tastes like men. I prefer wine.
Thomas: Cars?
Tatiana: (putting on his jacket on her almost naked body) No.
Thomas: So, diamonds are your only love eh? Sapphires?
Tatiana: (chuckles) They're just a currency. So, tell me what does your new wife like.
Thomas: (sighing) Horses.
Tatiana: Horses? Nothing else?
Thomas: I don't know.
Tatiana, her eyes scanning Thomas with a mix of curiosity and mischief.
Tatiana: Is your wife captivating as they say?
Thomas, a knot forming in his stomach
Thomas not answering and continues to smoke.
Tatiana, her tone carrying a playful note, pressed further.
Tatiana: And how does she feel about our little escapade?
Thomas: Please, stop talking about her.
Tatiana: (realizing) Oh, she doesn't know. I just want to know the woman who has you wrapped around her finger.
Thomas, feeling the weight of his mistakes, tried to redirect the conversation.
Thomas: It's not the time for personal questions.
Tatiana, enjoying the discomfort she was causing, persisted.
