Angela characterized her sister by many things: the smell of peroxide she left in the bathroom seemingly every week, the sharp sound of korean dramas her room seemed to endlessly emit, the sight of tall velvety heels thrown by the doorway, the bitter taste of carbon that seemed to coat everything she cooked.
