“N-No.  I won’t.  I’m going to school this morning.”  Ruby stood her ground.

“Listen, little bitch.  I saved you when your parents died, so you’re gonna do what I say — okay?  You’re going to do the dishes and weed the garden and paint my toenails.  Understood?”

“Y-Yeah…”  Rouge was stunned.  Never had Lilac spoken to her with such hatred in her voice.  And never had Lilac ever mentioned something about her parents dying.  She had always said that her parents were on a lifelong vacation.

She needed to get to the bottom of this.
