I had no idea

Hi my name is terra Sanchez. I was adopted 14 years ago.
My adoptive mother beats, taunts, threatens, uses me, and makes me do the most ridiculous chores I've ever heard of just to torture me.
My best and only friend is Victoria she's adopted too. Her adoptive father beats her every day. We get tired of the way we are treated, that's when we make a decision that will change our lives forever. I'll soon be 16 and that's when I find out something about ourselves that we never knew.
There is more to our world than meets the eye.
