“You’re A Devil”
DESCRIPTION:
Dig this. She was a fool in love, blinded by happily ever after. Thought he was an angel. But that halo? Turns out it was a devil’s disguise. He played the part but it was a damn walking lie. Now the truth stings worse than a scorpion. He played her like a pawnshop guitar, all twang and no truth. Found out his sweet talk was faker than a three-dollar bill. He can keep his fake smile and his even faker momma. She’s out. End of transmission.
