God! Third one this month! Wallet can't take this hit. I'm Mia Santos. Eight straight years painting construction sites after high 27 jobs lost. All for playing hero.

The boss got handsy, so I taught him a lesson with my fists. Didn't know he had a glass ball. It cost me three months of wages and medical bills. Stop right there!

Creeps belong in the dumpster. Look at yourself. You don't even look like a woman anymore. Jacked like a linebacker.

Eating more than two grown men combined. I've always looked like this. Back then, at least you brought home cash. Now, you wrecked every gig.

Your savior syndrome shut down your parents' bakery. Everyone I hit had it coming. I'm not marrying some broke, uneducated troublemaker. Eight years breathing paint fumes? Your lungs are toxic waste.

You won't even live long. We're done.
