"Your mother is a tramp," Ice hisses. "You're gonna wish you never said that! Here, take this!" Smoky launches Ice a punch right in the middle of his face, so he screams loudly. The teacher runs back towards them. "What's going on here? Is it you again, Smoky?"

Smoky and his little sister Piña Colada are living alone with their mother. They're forced to be independent, because their mother is an alcoholic. Smoky is the elder sibling, and takes - as with almost every other case of families with abuse - too much responsibility.

The family's situation evolves dramatically, and violent things happen. Smoky has to go through a whole lot, but there are some good things about it.

Rated teen for a bit of foul language. That, and the mother is an alcoholic.
