She's in me, and she won't leave. Every time I look at myself in the mirror, it's not me that's staring back. She may have the same face, the same hair, the same body, the same freckles, the same burns and scars, but my lord her eyes. Her eyes were chilling, scarring, psychotic and crazed. They stared at you like she knew your every secret, like she knew all your fears and weaknesses. You may not believe it, but she really does know every aspect of your life and who you are
Take it from me.

"The mafia it seems is no place for a girl like you"
"I'd rather die than be seen with the likes of you"
"I can't! "I can't do this anymore. You lie you cheat you do everything in your power to make me not trust you! I've just found out you were using me and for what? To what end? Huh?"
