Manuela enters the scene

I must admit. That Sylvain is quite handsome...

And it doesn't hurt that he's heir to a noble family. I could get used to that kind of life.

The age difference bothers me a bit, but I'm sure it would be fine after a few years.

At first it was hard to imagine myself with him, but now that I've thought about it, maybe—

Speak of the devil. I think that's him over there.

Ugh, what a jerk! He was playing around with me that whole time!

You know, you're a good catch. It's a shame that you've had no luck with men.

You need a guy like me—somebody who sees your beauty and appreciates how tender you are, emotionally...and how much love you have to give.

What? No way! What are you saying? I can't even tell if you're being honest...

Do I look dishonest? Are these the eyes of a guy who is just playing around?

No... I... I suppose not. Would you like to go somewhere a little more quiet?

As long as it's just the two of us and the only subject is love, I'll follow you anywhere.

Manuela enters the scene

OK. That was just...repulsive.

He is insincerity personified. No way I'd ever fall for that.

He is handsome...and does come from good stock... But, no. I can't imagine we'd have a bright future together.

I suppose the goddess does not give with both hands, does she?

...

Wait. Could that mean because of my looks and my singing voice...

That I'll never find true love?

Please, Goddess, I'm begging you!
