We got to class and took our respective seats, I got a couple of stared but it wasn't the usual look of disgust and pity, they stared at me with a smile on their face, someone even waved at me and I waved back, of course, a small smile formed on my face knowing that they are now accepting me, it felt weird and strange but I'll get used to it.The teacher entered at the same time as Lilith, her eyes scanned the room and I waved lightly signaling that I'm over there, she relaxed when she spotted me and gave me a small smile. She stood in front of the class waiting to be introduced."Why are you standing there?", the teacher asked, she opened her mouth to speak but he didn't let her " are you the new student?" "Yes sir." She answered with a smile, realization dawned on him and he turned to the class."Tell us your name." He instructed."I'm Lilith Miller, a victim of full-body paralysis." Of course, she had to add that, what better way to be liked than to be pitied."Oh, so sorry about
She stopped right in front of our table and slammed her hand on it hard, we just stared at her expecting the worst, everyone had their eyes on us. The cafeteria grew quiet moments after all that could be heard was the soft whispering of our audience."How does it feel to be pretty?" I took a bite of my sandwich and ignored her."Didn't you hear me?", I glanced in her direction before turning back to my food " now that you're pretty you've grown some balls, you have the nerve to ignore me!!" She taunted."What do you want exactly?" Sarah asked impatiently."For a one-legged baboon like yourself to stay out of my business!" That's harsh!! I could see that her words affected Sarah as she quickly sunk back into her seat."Hey!!" Ben yelled, getting up from his seat in an instant."What's wrong with you, you're sick in the head," Chad pitched in glaring daggers at her "why are you always out for her? Looks like you're jealous of her or something.""What exactly is there to be jealous of? I
The last class for the day ended and I waited for Lilith and my so-called friends at the door, I'll confront Lilith and ask her what lie she told."And where are you going?" They exited the class and tried to walk past me completely ignoring my presence, aunt was right after all now she has turned my friends against me and befriended them by winning their sympathy."What exactly is going on? What exactly did you tell them?", I have to act smart they saw me talking to a flower so even if I tell them I don't have a mind they won't believe me " why are you so silent? Y–" "Don't do this here." She said calmly."Oh so you can create a scene but I can't? Tell me what exactly you told them I want to know." "Al–" she started but Sarah cut her off."Since you want to know badly then I will tell you." She walked moved closer towards me, and shot daggers at me, "she told us that you're mentally unstable and all because you couldn't bear to see her out of the horrible state she was in after you
"So you see it wasn't my fault after she went into the state she was in everyone blamed me for it, I was taunted and called a murderer for years despite not doing anything wrong, my childhood was a nightmare and it messed with my head a bit, I visited the hospital where I was told I had schizophrenia," I paused and looked at them, I can't believe I'm lying to them but I don't have a choice."When she came back around I was overwhelmed and filled with joy, I told her about all the things that happened after she went into that state thinking she'll feel pity for me, and together we'll tell everyone that I didn't try to kill her but she said all the rumors were right that I dod try to kill her, I was upset with her and we had a fight that's all...I didn't tell anyone that I'm schizophrenic because I thought that the hate talks would just get worst." I looked at Lilith and her mouth hung open I'm sure she's surprised at how I turned things around "I understand her thinking that way, we d
"What did you just say?" Mom turned back glaring at me, my confidence shrunk and I turned away from her."Apologise! Now!!!!" I looked at her and all I saw in her eyes were immense hatred. Adam just watched silently with a small smile on his lip, he was enjoying this a little too much."I'm sorry....happy?" I glared back at her."I'll be happy only after you leave our lives." That hit a nerve, it hit it hard. I couldn't believe that came from my mom's mouth."Yeah right, looks like you'll never be happy cause we are stuck with her forever." Lilith Snickered."I'm so unfortunate." Mom said, she started the car and we were moving again.I felt Adam's gaze burning the side of my face, I turned to him and snapped "what!" He looked at me amused and that further infuriated me.I felt an intense urge to get out of this car, I felt very suffocated staying in the same car with them.******We got home several minutes later, I was the first to exit the car and made my way to the front door. It
"Lilith go call your sister." Mom authorized, she immediately jumped up from the couch and ran up the stairs and to the room."Hey mom's calling you," She yelled as I barged into the room."I'll be down in a second." "What are you doing?" My annoying older sister asked."What does it look like I'm doing? The makeup of course." I retorted upset."Trying not to break any mirrors and blind anyone, nice." She placed her hand on her hips and gave me a cocky smile."And what do you mean by that?" I stopped applying my makeup for a second to give her my full attention. "I mean you're so ugly you put our obsessed, distorted-faced neighbor Maria to shame." I felt a lump form in my throat, I swallowed it forcefully. "I'm not ugly, I'm pretty." I tried standing for myself, didn't want her words to hurt me, didn't want her to see how much her words affected me so I wore a mask, a very breakable glass mask."Oh please, don't bother, even the best and most famous make-up artist path McGrath could
'A new day, a new beginning' at least that's how the story goes. I hate school days but what can I do? I need to pass through school, get my masters and degrees so I can be respected.I picked out a blue short and black singlet with a black jacket. I hate my school Levis High, why? You'll find out soon enough.I got dressed, put on make up, my day hasn't started until I wear make up and I never leave my room without wearing a concealer, foundation, mascara and some lip gloss. I'm as ugly as I can be but no one needs to know that.I was ready so I head downstairs, I saw mom and greeted her but she ignored me, I would have hugged her but the last time I went two feet close to her, I was hospitalized for a week and I don't want that happening again. Breakfast was served so I dug in."Did I make breakfast for you? If you want breakfast can't you come make it yourself." She said as I took the last bit of pancake and slowly downed the last of my orange juice."And you have the guts to eat w
"Hey, I heard it's because your sister pushed you that's why you attempted to kill her, is that true?" A girl approached me and asked, I just walked away.It's lunchtime and I'm exhausted, I can't count the number of people that have walked up to me questioning me about how I became the way she is. "So did you try to murder your sis because she's hotter than you?" The school slut asked."For the millionth time no!!" She spat on my face as I said this."Don't ever raise your voice at me again, you're a lonely loser, you're not even pretty and you think you can yell at me." With that, she walked away."Hey." I heard someone say."Go away!" I yelled not bothering to see who it was, I slammed my locker and went to my next class, it's still lunchtime so I'll just sit here....alone."Hi." Someone greeted and I rolled my eyes so hard I felt it touch the back of my head."What do you want?!" I asked glaring at her."Nothing, I've seen you and you don't have any friends—" "Thanks for the frie
