Ava: So, you gonna spill the tea on sis or just keep dodging? 'Cause I'm not buying the silent act!
Ruiz
I sit down on the couch I said I don't know anything.
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh come on, Ruiz! Cut the crap and spill it already! I'm not here to mess with you, but seriously...
Ruiz
I put my arm around you I really don't know.
leans in closer, her voice dripping with sarcasm You know, Ruiz, your "I don't know" game won't fly with me.
Ruiz
I chuckle my mother was obsessed with the mob boss.
raises an eyebrow, intrigued Obsessed, huh? Like, to the point where she'd give up her designer heels for a glimpse of his rugged mug?
Ruiz
well...maybe not that obsessed but there were pictures.
smirks mischievously Pictures, huh? Show me!
Ruiz
I pull out some old photos from my bag
snatches the photos from Ruiz's hand, flipping through them quickly Well, well, well...looks like your mom had quite the taste in dangerous men.
Ruiz
I mean I wouldn't say dangerous.
rolls her eyes again Oh please, Ruiz! These men are gangsters, killers! You think your mom didn't know what she was getting herself into?
Ruiz
I mean she did move with him.
pauses, realizing something Wait a minute...she moved with him? Are you telling me she actually lived with this guy?
Ruiz
well yeah.
sets the photos down on the table, her expression turning serious Damn, Ruiz. Your mom's got quite the adventurous spirit. But living with a mob boss?
Ruiz
I know right.
As Ava delves deeper into the photos, she discovers that the mob boss had a dark side involving illegal activities and numerous enemies within the criminal underworld. Ruiz realizes that uncovering these secrets could put him in grave danger if he doesn't proceed carefully.
Ruiz
I nod and find a specific file Want to know what happened to her?
raises an eyebrow, intrigued What the hell happened to your mom? Did this mob boss character chop her up like a damn Thanksgiving turkey? Or did she just bounce after realizing how twisted he was? Spill it, Ruiz!
Ruiz
I glance at the file Let's just say that she died from food poisoning.
lets out a dramatic gasp Food poisoning? Are you fucking kidding me, Ruiz? Talk about a twist!
Ruiz
yeah.
bursts into laughter Oh my god, Ruiz! This shit is like a damn movie plot!
Ruiz
that's why they call it life imitating art.
dramatically wipes away fake tears Oh, Ruiz, your mom's fate is like a twist of fate! It's like...
Ruiz
it's like she got caught up with the wrong crowd.
laughs even harder Caught up with the wrong crowd? Damn, Ruiz, your mom must have been one wild chick!
Ruiz
well I guess.
sits back down, deep in thought You know, Ruiz, this whole story is giving me goosebumps.
Ruiz
in a good way?
snaps her fingers as if having a brilliant idea Absolutely, Ruiz! This could be the basis for a killer true crime podcast!
