I Am No Longer Your Puppet

Synopsis

In the Vance household, I was nothing more than an expendable burden. My older sister wore designer labels; I got her hand-me-downs. The stash of cash I spent years saving from odd jobs was snatched away by my mother just so she could buy my sister a luxury resort swimsuit. Even on the day I turned sixteen and left home, the entire family was busy throwing a massive celebration party for my sister. They genuinely believed I was a harmless, submissive puppet who would bend to their every whim. What they didn't realize was that inside the little black leather journal in my hands, I had already cataloged every single dirty secret this "respectable" middle-class family was trying to hide.
