OLIVE

Broken nails, smudged mascara and swollen lips were all Olive Carson's favorite things. Knowing her mother, who was away for almost everyday of her life and her father who didn't give a crap about her and was literally dying of cancer, Olive had the place all to herself. She was the kind of girl you'd see swinging her hips from side to side with a beer in one hand and a cigarette in the other.

As Olive hid her tired face under her heavy make-up, she did everything you tell yourself not to do. She had no care for the world, she was carefree but at the same time careless but one night makes her head spin uncontrollably.
Hephington Bar, drunk, nowhere to go, Dane Richards, empty room. What do you think happened?

This was the year Olive pondered as a life-changing event : The year she gave birth to Jessa.
