Abby knew her stepfamily wasn't the nicest of people. She tried to understand their cruelty even when it was hard to do so. Angelica wasn't the sort of woman who did well on her own, especially with two daughters. When her father died, the loss was a blow to her. Trixie and Saffron weren't obvious beauties and their insecurities manifested in bullying and laziness. They had no drive to be better because their mother taught them the world owed them everything.

But as Abby stared into her closet at the one nice dress she had in her possession, her eyes filled with angry tears and she let out a muffled cry of pain. Her mother's dress was completely tattered. It appeared as though it had been stuffed in the laundry, which was the worst thing to do with such delicate material.

Why? Why would they do something as horrid as this?

To prevent you from going to the masquerade, a voice in her head pointed out. Think about it, Abby. You mentioned wanting to go before now. You mentioned you had something to wear. This will prevent you from going—at least, in their minds.

Abby clenched her teeth.

No.

They would not keep her from going.

Not this time.

She opened her purse and felt around for the card. When she curled her fingers around the cool plastic, the tension left her body, if only slightly. She would buy a dress and shoes and makeup and whatever else she needed. Her stepfamily would not stop her from doing something she wanted to do, no matter how much they tried.
