I do some illegal things. Like sell drugs. I'm careful and I don't sell any addictive drugs. If I see a customer more than twice, I get them to tell me what's going on. In a way I act as a therapist. No one knows this, however. I know a lot of things about people. The deepest ones. But no one knows mine.

I swear I'll get my sister out of that hellhole. I have a couple months until college, and my applications are pending. I do well in school, which is surprising to many people. I have all the money I need for my first year of college, and a lot more.

I turn 18 in a week. Which means I can adopt my sister and take full custody of her. I have enough for a good lawyer and college. All it takes is one call to child protection services, and my plan would be in tow. I didn't tell my sister. I couldn't get her hopes up.
