Mature Themes Suicide, rape/sexual assault, murder, incest, drugs/alcohol etc Summary Lucenda is a very smart girl, but she has no confidence in herself when it comes to socialising and making friends. Her world is an absolute tragedy. Besides, everyone thinks she's dumb just because she is neurodivergent and special in her own way. Even her own father thinks she's useless, and decides to take advantage of her to crush her dreams. Not before she decides to not let him do just that. From surviving in a world that never works right for her to thriving in times of troubles, Lucenda toughens up and shows everyone else what she is capable of - which is more than what anyone else could imagine of her. Everyone except Alix (even Lucenda!) doesn't realise how she's changed thanks to time and of course, Alix. She starts to see how the world works for her benefit. She eventually overcomes all odds to succeed...
