Mahkenzy is just trying to get through life as best as she can but with an abusive alcoholic mother, father who is never there, and constantly being bullied at school. Mahkenzey just wants to give up. Eric comes along and tries to get close to Mahkenzey but she knows she cant allow him to get too close because he might find out whats going on at home and tell all his friends who bully her and she just cant let that happen.
