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 sun doesn’t shine on me when my alarm goes off waking me up. For once I open my eyes to see curtains. Normally, I leave the curtains open in my room. Since the last letter I got I’ve kept all the curtains tied shut. I’ve had Oliver stay home lately as well. I don’t know if it’s safe for him to come over here if there are people watching the house. He can’t get hurt or have people following him because of me. I put him through enough shit just being around him.
