Out From Darkness

Teenage life is a hard life. We all have our problems, some bigger than others. Although Aiara has her friends (and Jake), she feels alone, helpless, and hopeless as she faces a prostituting/drug-addict mother, a drug-dealing/rapist "stepfather" and a runaway dad who left her when she was only a baby. Hope goes a long way. How long can Aiara hang on to that last bit of hope she has left when everything seems to be going wrong?
