In Memoirs of Geisha Chiyo-Chan lives with her mom, dad, and sister, and she soon learns that her mom is terribly sick. She befriends an older man who she wants to adopt her sister and herself. He does quite the opposite though. He sells the two girls into types of slavery. Chiyo-Chan is separated from her sister and forced to work at an okiya. There she becomes enemies with one of the geishas. She hadn’t done anything to the woman, but she absolutely hated Chiyo-Chan. Eventually Chiyo-Chan found her sister, and they decided they were going to run away. One night she attempted to, and got on the roof, but fell off. Auntie found her there, and proceeded to beat her. At this point Chiyo-Chan has given up most hope in life.
