More than friends, closer than sisters, together they navigate a childhood bound by love, loyalty, and the shadow of absence — both are destined never to know their mothers. But this is the American South in the 1950s. Black girls like Vernice and Annie have to fight for every opportunity they can.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGradually, inevitably, the girls drift apart.
