ZAIVERQUISSHA
When her sister announces a pregnancy at 19, the narrator, an ambitious and hardworking teen, realizes that in her family, accomplishments are measured only by who creates life, not who builds a future. Her college acceptance letter is dismissed, her birthday forgotten, and her savings taken-while everyone cheers for Liliana and her new baby.
Forced to navigate a home that doesn't celebrate her, the narrator learns the hard way that self-worth cannot depend on others' approval. Through heartbreak, resilience, and the support of friends who truly see her, she discovers what it means to stand apart and claim her life on her own terms.
Proof is a raw, emotional coming-of-age story about family, neglect, and the courage it takes to grow up invisible-and emerge stronger than ever.
