-'What the fuck?' Maria put out the blunt she was smoking to see what she was being approached to, -'What's that' she asked a nearby girl, -'I think it's coke', -'Coke? Yall insane, stop sniffing that shit!' She said completely scandalised at the sigh of youngsters her age just doing coke on a table.
-'Thais this party is trash, there's fucking junkies everywhere' she rolled her eyes and held her friends hand, -'I know, it's so weird...you wanna go?', -'Yeah, these people are insane, I'm not doing coke' she threw the butt of a cigarette on a trash bin and made her way out of the party along with her friend.

Gaga was surprised when her daughter showed up early in the morning driving her brand new car in pajamas, -'What are you doing here baby?'i thought you'd be-', -'I haven't slept a wink, fucking Thais filled the damn house with junkies after we left the fucking party, I really don't wanna be around those people, -'It's five AM baby, are you okay?', -'Yeah, I'm fine I just need to sleep', -'Okay well, go up I guess...', -'Alright, I"ll see you later mom' -'Sweet dreams, I'll tell your grandma not to bother you'.

Gaga walked upstairs to check on her daughter at around midday when she heard her arguing.
-'No, don't fucking invite me again if all you're gonna do is get high on COKE! What the fuck Thais I don't fuck with that shit....if that makes me not cool then fine...you have to stop, girlfriend, you're gonna ruin your own damn life....fine then....I SAID FINE!...Later, bitch' she hung up the call and threw her phone on the pillow, -'...That party really made an impact on you huh', -'Yes. It was insane mom', -'I believe you. Every party I go is like that. Except I don't consume', -'...You did tried coke when I was a baby, though', Gaga nodded and sighed deeply, -'I was dumb. And young. And desperate. We were dirt poor, Maria. I was trying to make it. For me AND for you. I regret every single line I ever did, because I could've lost you forever, god knows what could've happened', Maria nodded, -'I know. You're a good mom because of that. Sacrifices...and realizing your mistakes', -'...I try', Gaga sat down beside her, -'But you know the time I was the most scared in my whole life?', Maria shrugged, -'The day you were born. I was absolutely terrified. I looked at you and I held you and I just cried, I didn't know what to do with you. But then your grandma came up and talked to me. We talked for a while, actually. About commitment and responsibility and love. And the next day I just fell in love with you. It was like starting all over again, you see? It's something you can do if you try hard enough', Maria laid her head on her moms shoulder, -'Indont wanna lose my friendships but...I just don't wanna be with some of them anymore', -'Trust your gut feeling before you do something you'll regret'.
