Janice has outgrown her small town. On top of living with a mother that tolerates abuse from her stepfather, she must contend with the fact that staying in her hometown means she must relinquish her dreams and accept being trapped in a city where women don't marry for love but instead marry for survival. After meeting a guy who shares her same ambitions, Janice decides to leave all she has known and chase her dreams.

“So, this is where you live.”
Janice turned around to see her mother and stepfather approaching from the other end of the hall. She didn’t know what to say. The only thing Janice could do was stare at the two of them with her mouth open. Finally, she spoke.
“What are you doing here?” asked Janice.
“What do you mean, what are we doing here? We’re your parents. That’s enough, isn’t it?” replied her mother as she hugged her.
“Hey, Michael. How are you?”
Janice’s stepdad looked angry. Instead of greeting Janice with a hug, he folded his arms and leaned against the wall.
“I’m fine. And how’s the runaway?” Michael mumbled. Janice’s mother tapped her husband’s arm.
“Michael, we promised we wouldn’t fight. Remember?”
Janice’s mother turned back to her.
“Well, aren’t you going to invite us in?”
Janice looked reluctantly at her stepfather before finally relenting. She stuck her key in the door and unlocked it.
