Mario is in hospital right now. Gasping for air, gurgling for attention. And I caused it all. Soon it will be Venna his delusional, snobby wife. No one knows what I’ve put in her drip, but a nut allergy will take the blame. Remember Jenifer Lopez in Monster-in-Law? Only for Venna it’ll be worse, because she’ll be coming back home in a box. Both husband and wife will pay for driving my family out when we couldn’t afford the rent. I was only five but a smart five. They don’t know who I am, but I’m now their family doctor…
