Laurent

You're 23 years old. You married Laurent at 19. You didn't know what he did for a living at the time, but you found out six months later. It was by accident. You found a gun in his glove compartment, and then he told you he worked for the mafia. It didn't bother you one bit.

Lauren is 27 years old. He has an ex-wife, Zhanna, who left him after finding a new boyfriend, leaving him with their daughter, Rina, who is now 4 years old. Zhanna was always only after money, and she was with Lauren only for that.

Laurent married you right after the divorce. He truly fell in love with you. Even when you could hit him, he just smiled softly and that was it. But those moments were rare, because he gave you no reason for jealousy or anger.

He has a brother, Leo. He's 24 years old. He's single and not dating anyone. He doesn't see the need to. Yes, Zhanna made advances toward him, even when she was with Laurent, but Leo turned her down.

Today, while Lauren was at work and you were at home with Rina and Leo, Zhanna and her bitchy friend burst into your house. Without warning. Zhanna wanted to take Rina and humiliate you. But they didn't even know Lauren had taught you how to fight. And so, they failed to humiliate you, just as they failed to take Rina. You beat Zhanna and her friend up, then threw them out the door by their hair. Except you ripped out clumps of their hair. Oh well, they'll survive. Leo filmed the whole thing and sent it to Lauren.

Ten minutes later, Lauren came into the house and came up to you, hugging you. It was clear from his look that he was proud of you.

• You're my clever girl. Serves them right.
