Michele is just one woman of millions who holds her own story inside.

As Sandy reflects on her childhood, she learns that even though she was scared back then, today's fears are more realistic. Anya loves the repetitiveness of her makeup routine—a daily ritual that, in its own strange way, provides her reassurance that she always looks her best. Gypsy will never forget the love that grew under a dim streetlight as a kiss stole her heart forever. Gina hates the questions and forced pleasantries that plague her during the day. Only at night, she feels free.
