Sena, known as Sister, is a beautiful girl. Her skin is like butter, light and smooth, and her hair is long, shiny and wavy. Her sister, Rose, is just the opposite. Her skin is dark, and her hair is short and kinky. Two daughters from Mama's womb, the same womb treated so differently in their home because of it. Sister could not understand why Rose resented her so. Rose could not understand why Sister could not see what was going on and what had gone on for many years. The only clue was a key belonging to a trunk in their grandmother's attic. The girls love their Grammy. She spoke with an old Southern drawl their mama hates. Rose and Sister had to learn on their own how to love each other in a world where confusion, betrayal, drug addiction, and mental illness is their reality until they learn there is no love like sisterly love.
