Luckily for Libby, she's to stubborn and strong willed for most costumers. So she's been left alone for several years. She knows that as soon as she turns 18, the orphanage will push her out and kill her eventually, not wanting their secrets out in the public. What they don't know, is Libby's secret. But one person does, and he wants to help. Will Libby trust this stranger, or will the orphanage be her undoing?
