Milly doesn't want much -- get to school on time, score good grades so no one will get on her case, have a friend so she doesn't look like a total loser. Just stay under the radar and get through the day, that's all Milly wants. But every minute of every day is a battle for Milly, because Amelia is there-hiding her phone, losing her homework, whispering in her ear that she looks like a pig. Sometimes Milly wishes Amelia was dead. But since Amelia shares Milly's body, that's a dangerous thought. Amelia has always been there, but since their parents died in the car crash, she's been making Milly's life a living hell. Grandpa George doesn't help; he's okay to live with, but he's so remote, and old. It's at the point where Milly can't take it any more, but she's sure people would only lock her up if they knew-or at least that's what Amelia says. Sometimes Milly cuts herself, for the release. Her only other relief is to write in her journal, where she can let her feelings out. The problem is, she doesn't remember what she's written when she's done. She doesn't remember much about her past.
But Amelia knows.
