Using your character(s) and any other given permission to use, write an angsty soap-opera scene involving infidelity or distrust.

Example snippet:

“I cannot go on without you, Smoddo! Please, take me with you!”

The desperate pleas of a ravishing holonovela star, begging her dashing Hutt lover not to leave her reverberated in the cool night air. Before her, Smoddo gave a withering look that struck his opposing star speechless before slithering up the ramp to his shuttle, leaving the grief-stricken woman to curse the contrived set of circumstance that had cost her the love of her life.
