章 709: Chapter Seven Hundred And Nine: Deborah -2

The third point of view:

Deborah learned from a young age that having hope was cruel. Believing in the impossible to happen was the same as drinking poison and hoping that it doesn't kill you. 

So she gave up on faith from then on and crushed the dream that her father would come for her - because it would never happen. Moreover, why would her father come for an ugly pig like her - so they called her.

So she stayed with her mother and step-father hoping that someday they would change their attitude towards her. As if fate finally smiled her way, her younger sister liked her, no, loved her. As little as she was, she would defend Decorah fiercely from the bullies - including their own parents.
