But after going to mommy to tell how evil you've been saying such things to her, being the girl I'd rather not be anymore with somebody so clearly stating she hates me.

Yes, as you have said, I couldn't possibly do such a thing as tell the little brat I hate her so because she will go to her mom and her mom will tell my father. And believe me, I SO want to tell her about her ways and her stupidity, but I'll just be wasting my breath and there will be no point because I will be the one who's considered "rude" (because it's this Asian culture thing) and her mom and brother will find ways to make my life miserable...through my father, of course.

So it's not you who are the evil person trying to mess everything up. You do so much: you work, you study... in your free time you should be allowed to be able to do all the things you like, instead of being enslaved. Those two women and their family are your father's friends. You cannot like them or pretend you like their company only because he does

Well, if my father was like any other "normal" father, I wouldn't have such a problem kindly letting him know how much my sister and I dislike this girl and her behaviors. But, because my father is not a normal father who loves or cares about his own kids and wife, he wouldn't give a rat's ass about what I have to say and he'll just end up doing SO MANY things that causes mini-wars to erupt, such as starting up petty and childish fights with my mother which turns into wars and many other personal things I don't care to share. He doesn't love us, he doesn't care about us...if he CARED, he wouldn't be going off siding with those two bitches and trying to conspire with them to take my sister, mother, and myself down. So, my saying "I hate that girl, dad" would just make all hell break loose.

EDIT: It's not that I don't understand what you're saying, Hylas, or that I'm just too carefree or cowardly to go against my father, but for the sake of my mother's peace, my sister and I have to keep our mouths shut and play our roles (oh yes, we have acting roles) as the "kind and caring daughters who don't hate our father."
