Mona is a senior in high school dealing with a distant mother, ex’s, and life. She hides what her life is really like from her friends at her fancy school. She’s left to take care of herself while her mother struggles with addiction. While trying to keep her life on the right path she starts getting harassing notes. She also notices her abusive ex running into her a lot more than normal. Mona meets a boy who understands what it’s like to be poor around the upper class, and they get close while Mona’s life seems to be against her.

It Could Get Worse

 The nightmares don’t stop, but I’m sleeping. I wake up a few times a night from the dreams, but I can get back to sleep. Oliver gave me a little warming pack that plugs into the wall. He told me to put it under my back and it helps. I also get a link to a new sleep playlist every week. “Music is good to calm the mind. If you focus on something else when you’re sleeping, then the dreams should go away.” He had told me. It didn’t really get rid of the nightmares, but it makes it easier to sleep. It also adds background music to my nightmares, so there’s that.
