epigraph

newly 17-year-old christi sherazi couldn't imagine a life without her uncle. he was the only father figure she'd ever known. so when he unexpectedly passes, she doesn't know where to turn. legally, she has to move in with her father who she doesn't know and doesn't want to. he never made an effort to come see her so why should she be nice to and care about him? but will she leave when she turns 18 or will she develop a relationship with him and his lifestyle?

based on the song 'moonlight on the river' by mac demarco. (with a twist)
