Lucy (Youngest Daughter)

Content

Lucy is her mom’s favorite. She knows that but often pretends she doesn’t know that for Mona’s sake. Lucy loves Mona dearly, and looks up to Mona as a beacon of freedom. In truth, Lucy is a bit jealous of how free Mona seems to be. How unstressed she is about how she lives her life. Lucy is all stress because Lucy is a performer. She performs, all the time, everywhere for everyone. Especially for her Mom. Lucy knows her mother’s dreams and has heard her mom speak of them so much, that Lucy now believes they are her dreams.
