Her emotionally stunted mum clearly isn't a fan of hers either, ditching their micro-apartment with a bye-bye note scribbled on My Little Pony stationery.Her case is one of thousands in the city's cutthroat girls' schools, where towering alpha females move and think as a single, terrifyingly beautiful organism on its third double eyelid surgery.
