Chapter 515 Lust & Found:>3
- Casey gawked at her, and Sarah couldn't help smiling nastily back at her. "Told you what they did, did they? How they refused to let him go to college so you could have a nice new luxury car and a trip to Europe, how he had to turn-down a full scholarship to Berkeley because your folks refused to help him in any way, how they want a bubble-head like you to go to college, not him, the only brain in the whole damn family? Enjoying your nice birthday presents, are you? You'd better, because that was your brother's future; think about it next time you and the rest of your slutty friends pile into your nice new car, or when you go slutting around Europe next year, and wonder how the hell your brother's supposed to make a life when you've taken his future from him; I hope it gives you a warm glow inside. You have to go now, I'm sure there's a boy somewhere you haven't shown your ass to yet!"

When was the last time she'd said 'thank you' when he'd done something for her, or said 'good morning' to him, or even just smiled at him, included him just once? She had time for everyone, but never any for her brother.
- Sarah was right; they'd driven him out. They never gave him anything, or bought him anything, or did anything for him, or took him out anywhere; it was always just Mom, Dad and her. Robbie had never been on vacation with them, preferring to stay with Joey; at least, that's what the parents had always said; but supposing they had told him he couldn't, or worse, never even bothered to ask him along?
