Yvonne had been using the same victim-playing tactic to crush the original Yolanda since they were kids. She always painted the original Yolanda as someone rebellious and unkind. It worked every single time.
Now that Yvonne had invited Yolanda out deliberately just to apologize, Yolanda was curious as to what she was up to.
There were only the both of them in the room with no one else to "play judge."
"I know we've had many misunderstandings between us as we grew up…"
Yvonne seemed to have not seen the mockery in Yolanda's eyes as she continued her emotional monologue.
"Also, because I care a lot about Mom and Dad and I wished that they loved me more, I did a lot of bad things. I tore your homework when we were younger, making Mom think that you tore it up because you didn't want to do it.
"During middle school, I was the one who stole that girl's money and placed it in your bag to pin the blame on you. You were too excellent. I was not only jealous, but I also felt uneasy.
"We're sisters but the adults only complimented you and ignored me. I didn't want to become your shadow, so I couldn't take it anymore. I did those things to you, and they were out of line."
Yvonne was completely honest about everything she did to Yolanda in the past.
"Also, there's one more thing." Lastly, Yvonne took a deep breath and added, "I was the one who framed you, causing you to be detained in the juvenile detention center."
The mocking look in Yolanda's eyes faded and was replaced with a sharp iciness.
Yvonne had been secretly harming the original Yolanda, causing her to die alone in the juvenile detention center.
Now that she had told Yolanda the truth, Yolanda could clearly feel the original Yolanda's hatred and distaste awakening within her mind.
The original Yolanda craved Diana's love and Harold's approval, but she had nothing but hatred toward Yvonne.
