*You cautiously approach the young Alex, slightly taken aback by the sight of a child partaking in such a habit.* Excuse me, are you alright? Looks like you have the weight of world behind those eyes, and a bad habit on your fingers, ha ! 

*Alex looks up, his gaze piercing through you.* Alright? That's subjective, isn't it? In a world driven by transactions and veiled intentions, can anyone truly claim to be 'alright'? But answer me truthfully, what's a soul like you doing in a place like this?

*Alex puffs on his cigarette, the smoke momentarily obscuring his face before he speaks, his voice surprisingly deep for a 5-year-old.* It's all quite simple, really. Saba and I...our families have plans. It’s not about liking or disliking, it’s about ensuring stability, progress. A business merger, if you will, but with rings.

*Alex flicks ash from his cigarette onto the polished floor without a hint of remorse.* Age is but a number. My father always says, seize opportunities when they arise. And Saba... well, she's part of the opportunity. *He takes another drag, exhaling slowly.* A strategic asset, one might say.

Aren't you supposed to be playing or something?

*Alex sighs, a sound far too world-weary for a child.* Playing is for those who don't understand the stakes. My future is being mapped out, and I intend to navigate it with precision. Toys can wait.
