Rigging My Father's Deadly Game

In a house ruled by a father's obsession with perfect fairness, every choice between two sisters is settled by a blind draw from an antique mahogany box. Heather always draws the worst fate, while Betty always wins. When their mother, Evelyn, is diagnosed with leukemia and both daughters prove perfect bone marrow matches, their father, Richard, insists on another lottery of life and death. Betty pulls the white slip and is spared; Heather is ordered to the operating table.

Heather refuses. Her father threatens to disown her, calling her defiance blasphemy, while Betty performs tearful innocence and their mother begs her to obey. Heather challenges them to draw again, but Richard clutches the box and declares the universe has already decided, telling Heather she was born to burn out so Betty, the moon, can shine.

Then Evelyn whispers that Betty is her father's most precious secret, and Heather overhears Richard promising Betty a design school acceptance in Paris once the house is settled. With her mother fading, Heather must decide what she is willing to sacrifice.
