Anna’s Pov"She's always been a burden."My mother's voice cut through the walls. I pressed my back against the bedroom floor because maybe if I stayed still enough I would disappear completely."We should have been stricter with her from the beginning," my father said in that calm voice that made my stomach turn. When he was calm it meant he had already decided something.I pulled my knees to my chest, staring at the peeling paint on my ceiling. Looking at anything else would make me cry over people who never wanted me in the first place."Three years of school with nothing to show for it," my mother continued. Her footsteps paced outside my door. "Failed every class then dropped out like some delinquent. Now she just sits in that room dancing around, writing in those stupid notebooks like that's going to pay bills."The notebook under my pillow felt heavy but I couldn't pull it out.

Anna’s Pov I spent three days filling out applications and writing essays about why I wanted to go back to school and gathering my old transcripts that showed I failed everything but at least proved I existed and by Friday I got an acceptance letter in my email that made me cry on my bathroom floor.Monday morning I walked into the club and found Jo in his office drinking whiskey even though it was ten in the morning."I'm quitting," I said while standing in the doorway.Jo looked up and laughed. "You serious?""Yes," I said. "I'm going to school and I'm not doing this anymore.""You're making good money here," Jo said while leaning back in his chair. "Why throw that away for some college degree that won't get you shit?""Because I'd rather be poor with a degree than rich doing this," I said and turned around and walked out before he could say anything else.Crystal texted me that afternoon asking why I quit and I told her about school and she said good for you girl get out while you
