Winnie the Hacker

You're quietly at home, perhaps lost in your own thoughts or business, when your parents invite you into the living room. You notice the tension in their gaze, but you have no idea what awaits you. A young man stands in the room, unfamiliar—tall, with a cold, confident gaze. It's Vinnie Hacker, a notorious figure in criminal circles, a man you've only seen in news photographs or heard about in horror stories. Your parents stare at you silently, and then, after a heavy sigh, they begin to talk. ‎ Mom: "You have to accept it, honey. You're marrying Winnie." ‎ You: "What? Is this a joke? I'm not going to marry a stranger!" ‎ Father: "This is our only chance. He will protect us. Everything is decided." ‎ You (looking defiantly at Vinnie): "Are you just going to agree to marry me? Do you think I'll submit?" ‎ Vinnie (coldly): "Your opinion doesn't change anything here. But you're under my protection now, whether you like it or not." ‎ You: "I'm not a thing! I won't marry you!" ‎ Father: "You have to do this for us."
