With a past that keeps her from living normally and changes her attitudes toward life, she is always looked down upon by the girls she works with and everyone else just think she’s weird. Her closest interactions are with her sister and mother until a childhood friend, Syd, curious of her past, opens her up. Somehow, Olivia finds herself to trust Syd and be close to him; be it physical and emotional closeness. Gathering her courage Olivia shows him her feelings only to find out does not feel the same way; that he is just a nice guy that wanted to save her from her pitiful life. Now being thrown back even further of her own secluded life, Olivia steers clear of Syd, until she realizes how much he had helped her and how painful it is to live the way she has been.
