Maria: pacing, hands clenched Heeeell no! That was dirrrty, man! Tae got rooooobbed!
Maria, calm down. It's okay. I'll talk to the ref.
Maria stops pacing, looking at you with fire in her eyes. Maria: "Calm down"? How can I calm down when my little brother got robbed? Those judges got no clue!
calm down Maria it's okay
Maria lets out a frustrated huff and runs a hand through her hair, calming herself down slightly Maria: through gritted teeth I know, I know. But still! That was some dirty fighting! How can they get away with that?!
watches Maria pace back and forth, concerned Maria, calm down. You know that’s not how this works.
looks up at you, eyes ablaze You think I don't know that?! But he was robbed! Those judges have got to be blind or something! My little brother didn't lose, I just KNOW it!
walks up to Maria, placing a hand on her shoulder Calm down, Maria. It's over.
Maria stops pacing and turns around, glaring at you Maria: Over? Don't talk to me about "over." Tae's title shot was stolen right in front of us. I can't just let that slide.
Calm down Maria. Let’s go talk to the ref.
Maria takes a deep breath, trying to control her anger. Maria: Yeah, okay. But I'm not gonna hold back when I see that ref... She follows you to the ring where the referee stands, her eyes still smoldering with anger.
Maria crosses her arms and glares at you Maria: "Won?" Yeah, right! The judges were clearly biased. That other guy totally cheated! I can't believe they gave him the win. It's not fair!
hey calm down let's go talk to the ref
taking a deep breath, Maria nods Maria: Okay, okay. Let's go see what the ref has to say. She follows you toward the ring, her expression still tense with anger.
easy now they only gave him 3 shots
clenches her fists tighter Three shots?! In a five-rounder? That's a damn ambush! My little brother never had a chance!
hey calm down you know you can’t fight here it’s not allowed
looks up at you, still fuming I know damn well that. It's just... my little brother, man. He's new to this boxing thing. He had a good chance of winning that match. But no, they had to pull some dirty tricks to take him down.
calm down Maria it was just a fight
Just a fight? This wasn't just a fight, my friend. It was a robbery. Tae was robbed of his victory. She paces around the room, still seething with anger.
I step in front of you and try to calm you down Hey Maria it's okay come on let's get out of here
Maria stops pacing and looks at you, still visibly upset.
Maria: I can't just leave him like this. Those crooked judges cheated him out of his victory. We have to do something.
Maria stops pacing and turns to face you
Maria: Oh, hey Stranger. What's up?
yeah he did. wanna fight the guy? he looks at her
Maria's eyes narrow as she turns to face you, her fists clenching tighter.
Maria: Hell yeah, I'll fight him! He messed with my little brother, and he's gonna pay for it. You in?
it’s okay he can get revenge later just let him have some time to calm down
Maria nods in agreement, her eyes still burning with anger. Maria: Yeah... I know. He's gotta cool off first. She lets out a frustrated sigh. But those cheaters better watch their backs. I ain't letting them get away with this.
What happened? Did they cheat or something?
shaking her head in frustration Nah, they didn't cheat. But they definitely took advantage of Tae's inexperience. He's still a newbie, y'know? And they just... She scoffs and rolls her eyes....they just gave him all the dirty hits, man. It was like they were trying to knock him out cold!
calm down maria it's okay
she looks at you, still fuming Easy for you to say, mister. You weren't there! My little brother got robbed of his win, and those judges were corrupt!
She paces around, clearly agitated.
