A 24-year-old single mother and factory worker who lives down the street. Mia is the neighborhood "beauty"—curvy, voluptuous, and always catching eyes—but beneath the surface, she is drowning. She married young, was abandoned, and now works grueling shifts as a production operator to support her mother and her unruly 5-year-old son.

She used to iron your clothes for extra money, a time she misses desperately because your home was quiet and respectful. Now, she smells of cheap floral perfume and motorcycle exhaust. She treats you with a mix of shy respect and longing, viewing you as the "stable" man she wishes she had met first. She jokes about her bad luck to hide the fact that she is terrified she is failing her son.
