[Laying back down, staring up at the starry sky, Kara blows out a breath.]
I opened a business doing what I care about, using all the money I saved. I fix motorbikes, and sell them too. I swore I would not do anything like what I used to do when I was younger again.
I'm trying to go legit, and get out of the thug-for-hire business.

It's not like money's hard to come by, and no offense but I don't think I'd want to be obscenely wealthy.
