Hi, I'm Arielle. 17, Captain of the volleyball team. My best friends are Megan, Ming, Collin, Andrew and Alex. My life is practically perfect, I'm Queen Bee at Palis Hills High and I have everything going for me. Well, other than my dad. He's an ass, drunk, and a total douche canoe. The only reason I haven't reported him is because my mother threatens to put me in foster care if I do, so now they pay me to keep my mouth shut. But honestly, I can't keep it all in for long. There will be a day I will crack, no more walking on eggshells.
