Prologue
After being neglected and pushed aside by her parents, Gabby tries different ways to get their attention. Once realising that being kind, smart and successful in her classes doesn't work Gabby tries a new tactic whilst the old one still carries on secretly and her mask of emotions is put up to hide her true emotions.
Forced to move from her home Gabby makes sure her best friend comes along knowing if she was without her it might be her final straw and she wouldn't be able to cope with all that she has. Millie is Gabby's wall of protection. They are bestfriends and have been through what they believe to be all.
After Gabby really does go off the rails getting messed up in some business of a boy that she didn't think was all that bad in the first place only to realise that she should've just left it all alone and gone home safe.
Gabby messed up bad without even realising it and now has twice as much to sort out. Knowing that there's not much to do about the first thing she focuses all her attention on the second which might just help her with the first problem without her even knowing it.
Going through the pressure of her best friend at the end of her patients and almost leaving Gabby to be on her own after getting in way too deep.
