My name is Carla, and at 21, life has thrown me more curveballs than I ever expected. After losing my mother at 10, my father remarried when I was 15, bringing Linda and her daughter, Megan, into our lives.
Over the years, I found solace in my relationship with Megan, but everything changed when my father and Linda had more children.
At 18, I started working to save for college, but my father soon demanded I pay $500 in rent. I reluctantly agreed, but the worst was yet to come.
Five months ago, my father and Linda told me they needed my room for their new baby, giving me two months to move out.
