"It's your fault Flint broke up with me!!"
Quirra was woken up by Kiiara's screaming.. She was having a nap by the couch as she had just gotten home from working overnight as a bartender, at the local pub.
"It's all your damn fault!!" Kiiara screamed again as she grabbed a pillow and threw it hard at Quirra.
"What the---" Quirra groggingly said as she sat up and tried to dodge the pillow that was thrown at her face. "What's your problem?" she asked Kiiara.
"Flint broke up with me because we're poor!!" Kiiara wailed. "And it's all your fault!!! I could never buy anything nice to wear nor any make-up and accessories!! I'm always behind anything!!! Flint said I'm just as plain and boring as I am poor so he broke up with me!" she complained.
Before Quirra could even say a word, Kiiara had already ran towards her room and slammed her door shut. Quirra could only sigh and shake her head as she tiredly walked towards Kiiara's room then knocked on the door.
"Kiiara, can you please open this so we can sort things out?"
From behind the door, Kiiara's music only got louder.
Unable to speak nor comfort her sister, Quiira sighed deeply and left.
She then went to grab her things and prepare herself for one of her jobs today.
Before she went for work, she left behind a note for Leo and her grandma, like she always do whenever she leaves the house. But she didn't say anything about what happened with Kiiara. They already have a lot in their minds so she doesn't want to add anything else to their worries.

5 years later ....
"Don't stand too close to me!" Clyde gritted his teeth as he spoke then sneered at Quirra. He didn't like the fact that she wore her waitress uniform on his graduation. It was already embarrassing enough that everyone knew they were poor, and to have Quirra show up on his big day looking like a cheap waitress makes him want to instantly disappear right then and there.
Before this, Quirra couldn't help to rush over at Clyde's graduation ceremony after her work ended.
Quirra was currently working at a restaurant miles away from Clyde's school. So she was so worried she wouldn't make it in time that she didn't think too much about changing her outfit and just went straight from her workplace to Clyde's graduation.
"Sorry" Quirra softly replied to Clyde. She then handed him the flowers that she bought on the way.
"Whatever." Clyde scoffed as he hurriedly grabbe the bouquet from her hands and then move away from her.
As every sibling took pictures with Clyde, Quirra stood behind in the background silently watching her siblings take turns taking a picture with each other. Excluding her.
But she wasn't bothered about it. Nor did she mind it. In fact all she could think of is how proud and happy she is at the moment---Proud of her brother who finally graduated and Happy for the fact that she managed to help another one of her siblings graduate in college.
When her siblings wanted to take a group photo, they would ask Quirra to take it for them and she would happily oblige.
Not caring or minding the fact that not one of her siblings bothered to ask her take a photo with them.
