Characters:
Ava: A determined young journalist eager to expose corruption.
Marcus: A seasoned politician who will do anything to protect his reputation.

Scene:

Ava leaned forward, her voice steady but laced with urgency. “Marcus, the public deserves to know the truth about your latest funding—”
He interrupted, the charm fading from his smile. “Ava, don’t jeopardize your career over rumors. What do you gain by tearing me down?”
“Integrity,” she replied, her eyes sharp. “It’s worth more than your facade.”
Marcus crossed his arms, calculating. “Be careful. Sometimes the truth can be twisted into a noose.”
