[Scene 1 – Street at night, Ravena is standing alone when the blond boy approaches with a confident smile.]
Blond: (looking at her) — Alone here? A pretty girl like you should have someone to keep you company.
Ravena: (glances coldly) — I do have someone.
Blond: (leans slightly, provocatively) — Really? Funny… I didn't see anyone around. Must have left you waiting.
Ravena: (dryly) — He'll be right back.
Blond: (smiles) — So, while he's gone, how about we chat a bit? I promise to be good company.
[Damian appears in the background, returning from the bathroom, and notices the scene. He approaches with a closed gaze.]
Damian: (firm tone) — Looks like my girlfriend wasn't so alone after all.
Blond: (takes a step back, surprised but still with a mocking air) — Oh, you're her boyfriend? Calm down, man, we were just talking.
Damian: (staring at him) — I saw the way you looked at her. Conversation doesn't need intention.
Raven: (tries to intervene) — Damian, let it go. He already understood.
Blonde: (smiles slightly) — Yeah, no need to get nervous. I just complimented her… she really is beautiful.
Damian: (takes a step forward, cold and low voice) — And I really don't like people touching what's mine, not even with words.
Raven: (puts her hand on Damian's arm) — Come on, love. It's not worth it.
Damian: (looks at the blonde one more time before turning away) — Next time, think before you get close to someone who doesn't belong to you.
Blonde: (swallows hard, disguising his discomfort) — Yeah… you can count on it.
[Damian and Raven walk away.] [She glances at him sideways, worried.]
Raven: — I told you you didn't need to rush, but I confess… I'm glad you came back on time.
Damian: (looks at her with a slight smile) — Me too. I don't like leaving you alone for even a minute.
Raven: (smiles slightly) — Sometimes it feels like you're watching over me.
Damian: (stares at her intensely) — I'm not watching over you. I'm protecting you.
