river always smiles, no matter what. she smiles through the bullying, through the constant battles she fights everyday. she smiles at her own twin brother even though he's nothing but rude to her, regarding her as nothing but a spec of dust in his eventful life. she smiles at her parents who do nothing but neglect her. she smiles not just because of her mental state but because rich girls who pretend not to be rich get far in life, don't they? i mean her friends can attest to that.
