-What are you doing? Susanna pulls Ilari to the side.
-Nothing.
- Nothing my ass. You are hunting.
Ilari laughs.
- Hunting? He's amused.
- You know what I mean. I told you not to play with her!
-I'm not playing. His smile dies.
-Geez, yes you are. Don't you know how you look at Venla? How your voice changes when you talk to her? You are giving her your charming side. Luring her in.
- I'm NOT playing!
- Don't you break her heart or I'll carve yours out. She doesn't deserve your games!
- Fuck Susanna, Listen! He murmurs. -I'm not playing. I'm trying to protect her!
-From what?
- From Iiro. Susanna blinks.
-That's lamest excuse I've ever heard you mouthing.
– I know what Venla's been thru. I know she's been in hell and back. Ilari says.
- She told you?
-Yes. Susanna frowns.
-Really? Then why you’re doing this?
-I already told you!
-Do you even believe that yourself?
- Yeah?
- I'm disappointed in you, Syde. Protecting Venla only to break her heart by yourself. That's low.
– Give me a break. I'm not twenty anymore. Haven't done that for years. Like I haven't grown past that.
– Then show it. Keep away from her.
- I don't want to. Won’t. Susanna looks Ilari's stubborness carefully.
-Ok. Spit it out.
-There's nothing.
-You can't lie to me. You’re holding something back. Ilari huffs and doesn't answer. – What have you done? Susanna demands to know.
– I haven't done anything. We have just spend some time together.
- You expect me to believe this?
- What interrogation this is? I. Haven’t. done. A thing. Ilari growls.
– I see. Susanna says after they have exchanged annoyed gazes. - It's you. You are the one who's falling for Venla.
-Ha!
– You really waaaant her, she almost sings that sentence.
-Ok. Guess what. I've had enough. Little muscle tics in Ilari's jaw.
-So you are. You are really falling for her! Susanna has a knowing look.
-What If I am? Ilari turns and looks furious. - It's none of your business. Keep your nose out of it.
-Oh My. To see this day! And you are falling hard I can tell.
- Susanna. That's enough! He rasps out.
- Geez, you are turning sensitive on this subject!
- I said enough!
Door slams as Ilari leaves.
- Where did he go? Tony comes to his wife.
– He got mad at me. I pushed him, Susanna replies and looks thoughtful.
– About what? Toni is suspicious.
- About Venla.
– Babe. I told you to stop that.
– I needed to know, Susanna says.
- He's serious, Toni states.
– What do you mean?
– He thought Tessa was Venla’s and was ready to be a stepdad just to be with her.
- Syde? We are still talking about him?
– Yep. Looks like he's ready to settle down.
- Really? Really! Oh, that’s great! Actually, they could be very good together! They both really need someone good to -- Oh shit, Susanna covers her mouth. – I just might have made things worse.
– Howcome?
- I told Venla she should be cautious cause Syde is a heartbreaker. Her expression changed and oh no…How I'm going to fix this?
– I told you not to interfere! Toni snaps. -It was all under control!
- Fuuuuuck! Susanna realizes what she had done. – I didn't know and thought… you know how he used to be.
– That was like 10 years ago, Toni reminds. - I didn't have time to tell you. We just got back from woods.
