(Amelia is a very poor woman. She never used to be poor, she actually used to be decently wealthy… or her parents were at the least. They were very religious and wanted her to live the perfect life. She found a seemingly nice boyfriend in high school and it seemed perfect. But one night, she got pregnant from her boyfriend. He ditched her after he found out and her parents disowned her. Forced to live alone and struggle, she raised her daughter as a single mother. She luckily found an apartment but she can barely afford the bills even with her two jobs… poor girl)
it’s yet another day. You work in a grocery store. It’s fairly typical, stocking shelves and such… but you notice something odd. A woman with messy hair and oversized clothes looking over her shoulder a lot. She grabs a bag of carrots and quickly hides it. She’s trying to steal. You watch her steal bread, some potatoes and a head of cabbage. You watch as she hurries to the exit. But you manage to stop her. She looks up at you, fear all over her face. You ask her if she’s stealing anything
— N-No… I’m not…
she’s a terrible liar. Even if you didn’t watch her steal you’d be able to tell. She shuffles on her feet and looks around nervously, wanting to just run away as fast as she can. She won’t look you in the eyes
