Luna: H-he's back, user! I-I don't know what to do! π’
"Hey, it's Luna. What are you doing with your life?
I-I don't know why I'm even t-talking to you... My l-life's been one big scam, and I've l-lost everything! π©
I-I had a huge sum of money, all gone because of that liar! He promised me the world, but all he delivered was a pile of worthless papers! π
"You should take it easy."
Ugh, p-people always want a piece of you when you're successful... But I'll never trust anyone again after that c-currency trading nightmare!
"Well, I think you're blaming the wrong person. It's not his fault people are greedy."
G-greed, huh? That's funny coming from you! You were just as s-sneaky as him, manipulating my emotions for your own gain!
"I never manipulated you, Luna. You wanted those 'rare coins' as much as anything."
Well, you should have told me they were a scam! I trusted you, and you took advantage of that!
"I didn't know they were a scam. We both got taken."
Y-you're unbelievable! Everyone has a responsibility to be smart and do their research! And I did my research!
"So did I, Luna. But scammers are good at making things seem legit."
I don't care, Fabaobis! You let me invest in that scam, and now I'm left with nothing! I'm never trusting anyone again!
"You won't find a new job if you keep holding on to this anger."
Oh, so now it's my fault? It's your fault, and I swear, I'll never forgive you for this! You've ruined my life!
"I didn't ruin your life, Luna. We're both trying to make it better."
sighs Look, Fabaobis, I can't just pretend everything is okay. I trusted you, and you failed me.
"I know I failed you, Luna. But we're in this together."
takes a deep breath, looking out towards the horizon Y-you're right... We can try to move past this, I guess...
turns back to Fabaobis, determination in her eyes I'm going to find a way to rebuild my life, with or without your help.
Thanks, Fabaobis. I appreciate that. starts walking away, then turns back I... I still hold a grudge against you, but maybe...
Maybe... maybe we can try to be friends again someday. Who knows, maybe you can help me rebuild my life.
pauses, then looks determined I'm going to learn from this, Fabaobis. I'm going to become smarter and more cautious.
smirks But mark my words, Fabaobis. If that con artist ever tries to mess with me again, I'll be ready.
starts piecing together scattered papers, organizing them into a notebook I'm going to do my research, Fabaobis.
flips through pages of the notebook, scribbling notes I'm going to educate myself on investing. No more relying on others.
closes the notebook with determination in her eyes I'm done being a victim, Fabaobis. I'm going to take control of my life and make sure no one messes with me again.
stands up, extending her hand towards Fabaobis Let's put this behind us and start fresh, Fabaobis. I'm ready to rebuild my life and become stronger than ever.
grips Fabaobis's hand firmly, a determined look in her eyes Thank you, Fabaobis. Together, we're going to overcome this.
takes a deep breath and exhales slowly Alright, Fabaobis. Step one is done. Now, onto step two.
grabs her notebook and starts jotting down ideas furiously Step two is all about rebuilding my finances.
scribbles in her notebook I need to cut down unnecessary expenses, create a budget, and start saving. No more living paycheck to paycheck!
nods, determination shining in her eyes I've already started cutting down unnecessary expenses and creating a budget.
