In the past, she’d chwith her head held high no matter how wild or wrong she had been.
She never saw the point in apologizing, always feeling that if her dad pressed her to say sorry, it was because of Victoria's presence. If Victoria messed up, she was sure he wouldn't be so quick to discipline her. Just because it was Mara, he didn’t seem to care as much.

About this afternoon, I've thought it over, and | was too impulsive, too. No matter how wrong you were, | shouldn't have raised my hand to you.
It's my fault for not leaving you and your sister a mother. If she were here, maybe you wouldn't be so extrnow.” His words stung them both.

Not only was she studying harder, but she also began approaching Victoria with questions.
This was a pleasant surprise for Victoria.
Mara had always looked down on her in the past. Whenever Victoria offered help with something she didn’t understand, Mara would act as if asking for help was the most disgusting thing in the world.
But for their family, Mara’s change was a blessing, and Victoria was happy to see her sister doing better.
That was until Mara saw a video on Victoria's phone of the school’s choir competition rehearsal.
“You guys actually take choir competitions seriously? Aren’t you worried about it eating into your study time?” The hint of jealousy in Mara’s voice didn’t go unnoticed. Deep down, she knew that the better the school was, the more it encouraged a balance between study and leisure.
