C'est à ce moment que mon monde a été entièrement remué. Mon grand frère commence à la chérir et me détester. Mon fiancé commence à la protéger et m'ignorer.

J'aurais préféré ne pas t'avoir donné naissance. » Mon frère ajoute. « Rien que l'idée de t'avoir comme sœur me dégoûte. Casse-toi de chez nous ! » Je ne dis rien. Je fais mes affaires et je pars.

Mais pourquoi en découvrant mon départ sans retour, ils viennent me supplier pour avoir une chance de me chérir ?
