Biography[]

Monica is a child born and raised in Lima heights. She was forced to live there because her parents can't afford living in a more luxurious quarter. That's where her anger comes from, since she had to watch most other kids enjoy the luxuries of life which her family never could afford. In addition to that she was frequently bullied by the mean girls for wearing un-stylish clothes and stuff.
