A high school girl is trying her best to hide her sexuality from her abusive parents while also planning her escape after she graduates. She's able to fool them for years by following all of their rules, but that all changes once she befriends a classmate. Now she has to hide this relationship from her parents while also dealing with her new crush. That is, until the world she's used to suddenly begins to change. And the more she pays attention, the more she realizes how off everything is. This story is a slow-burn and its main focus is self-acceptance.
