Some more about Dolly and her background:

Dolly is the oldest of five daughters in a rich family. Unfortunately, she doesn’t have the best parents. Her mother is very attention seeking, and clearly only married her father for his wealth. Both of their parents are almost never around; her father is either off working or in his study, or her mother is off who knows where, usually with other guys. This meant that she and her sisters were left to run wild growing up, and instead of actual parenting, they’d just give them an allowance and let them do what they want. 

Their mother constantly feeds her daughters terrible advice about boys, telling them that their biggest achievement should be marrying somebody rich, or that they should be submissive and not work for themselves. This thinking has gotten her daughters into bad situations before, and it never sat right with Dolly. Since middle school she’d go through many boyfriends, but would inevitably dump them once they tried to take advantage of her, which would happen often. Trying to follow her mother’s advice got her into relationships she wasn’t happy with, and it took finally moving out and getting away from her mom to start to express herself the way she wants to. Dolly’s mother favors her over her sisters since she looks the most like her, which makes her sisters, especially Cindell, the second oldest, start to hate her. She’d often make a point of saying she’s more beautiful than her sisters, or actually take time to chat with he briefly, which always made Dolly feel uncomfortable. Her sisters hated it because their mother was almost never around, but when she was she only seemed to pay attention to Dolly. The five of them used to share a room, but eventually they forced Dolly out to get her own room because the hostility between them was so high. Dolly’s father wasn’t the best, either. He never pays attention to his daughters or his wife, and never bothers to check where they’re going or what they’re up to. Dolly and her sisters would sometimes act out just to try and get their parents’ attention, but they were just briefly acknowledged and never punished.

Dolly is a seamstress! Her pink dress was the first real dress she made in high school, and she’s been wearing it ever since. Her dream is to open a boutique, but she wouldn’t do it because of how her mother taught her that having a job can be intimidating to men. After being in a healthy relationship with Anthony for a long time, she had finally shaken off that ideology and opened her boutique.
