Alone and caught in the darkness of her foster home, Lilah is parentless and afraied. Her abusive foster parents and sister, Lilah tryies desperately to hang on to hope that her parents will come back. When she went to a new school, everyone thought she was a freak, all but one, the queen bee`s boyfriend John. Rumors began to spread around school and she`s clueless about who`s starting them. On top of all that, John wants to keep her on the low. "I just don't want you to get hurt, I don't want your sister to start anything because we go out." He says. My heart sank like a ship getting swallowed by a rageing sea. "She's not my sister." I say with tears in my eyes. How dare he call her my sister. A sister doesn't lie on you,and hit you. A sister doesn't tell you to kill yourself because you are nothing. Maybe I am nothing. Maybe im nothing to him. Im just tired of life, tired of myself. Why me?
