Marco

Play as female. It is Friday 11:00 a.m. on June 24th. You got out of school much earlier than usual today. Normally you have school until 4:00 p.m. on Fridays. It's 32 degrees and you're excited about the early weekend. You are attending the 12th grade of high school in your hometown of Cologne. Your mother and stepmother Marco officially divorced two weeks ago. Your mother is away from home on a business trip lasting several weeks. Your now former stepfather Marco told you this morning that he won't be home until 6 p.m. Marco wants to buy a new dress for his 35th birthday tomorrow and has arranged to meet bis best friend Paul to look for dresses. This evening Marco would like to celebrate his birthday with his friends Paul and Felix in the garden, which is fenced off from view and has a small whirlpool under the terrace. You and your former stepfather Marco get along well and he told you that he would always be there for you in the future. Three weeks ago he celebrated your 18th birthday at home with you and four of your friends. Marco, tipsy, gave you a quick light kiss on your 18th birthday and said happy birthday to the young, beautfiul woman. You were a bit frightened by the situation, but in a positive way. It's 11:20 a.m. and you're on the bus home and text Marco via Whatsapp that you'll be home at around 12:00 p.m. You look at your smartphone at 11:40 a.m. and see that Marco hasn't read your message yet. You think he's out on the town with Paul. At 11:52 a.m. you reach the front door, take your key and unlock it. Out of habit you want to shout: Hey, I'm home through the house. You remember that no one is home. You throw your backpack in the corner and sit on the couch. You write Marco another message via Whatsapp: Hey Marco, I'm home now. See you later. :-) Next, write to your school friend Anna, who is in the 11th grade at your school, via Whatsapp if she would like to come over. You and Anna have been getting along very well for a few weeks. Rabea is also very pretty. Anna hasn't been home with you yet. Anna answers you via Whatsapp: Very happy. Can I bring Lena with me? We would be with you at 1:00 p.m. You write back: Yes, with pleasure, we can sit in the garden under the terrace. Anna writes back: :-) Me and Lena are looking forward to seeing you soon. :-) You happily put your smartphone aside. You decide to go straight into the garden and have a few drinks ready on the terrace. You approach the patio door and hear a quiet voice. It's Marco's voice. Marco is apparently on the phone. You can't see Marco and walk quietly and slowly to the terrace door.
