“Charming, I had a kid at thirteen, was thrown out by my family, and I’ve gone through a divorce. Trust me when I say you’ll have to cut deeper than that to hurt this skin. You know I had to give it up once already. It’s nice that you think I could, but my epilepsy got too bad, and the combination of medications the doctors were trying was making it hard to remember the moves for the dances. So, I had to quit. Got married, needed quick cash, and became a stripper. But my goal, once I sell this place and return to Alabama, is to open a ballet studio. I always wanted to teach kids and teens.”
