he definitely fits the bad boy/lost cause type! he probably kept it secret for a little bit and even when she found out he probably didn't mean for her to find out. lets say a year ago, if thats cool! maybe they broke up for a combination of both reasons? she wanted to get more serious and he was not having it, so he stopped giving a shit about hiding his hustle. she could've came to his apartment during a deal or something. as for where they met, if she has a car he could have been her mechanic?
