Bagel
At the hockey game, my neighbor Bianca confessed her feelings to the team captain, Hudson, right in front of everyone.
The moment she finished speaking, someone dumped an ice-cold soda right over her head.
"Look at this greasy freak. Does she really think she has a chance with our star player?"
The bleachers instantly erupted into cruel laughter.
I watched her soaked hair stick to her face as tears mixed with the dripping soda. I walked over and shielded her from the cruel jokes.
Then I pushed through the crowd and offered her a tissue.
She slapped my hand away.
"Stop being so fake, Harper! You're the biggest hypocrite in this school!"
The next morning, I woke up and realized I was in Bianca's body.
Before I could process it, my phone rang.
It was a FaceTime call from Bianca from my own account.
On the screen, wearing my face, she gave a smug smile.
"I paid a witch a fortune to swap our bodies."
"Now it's your turn to see what it feels like to be a loser everyone steps on."
"Your life as a top model is mine now. As for Hudson and his insane abs, I'm keeping them for myself!"
I hung up, stared at myself in the mirror, and smiled.
I finally escaped the toxic mother who was draining the life out of me.
I was also totally free from that cheating jerk who only played games with my heart.
This idiot had no idea what kind of nightmare was hiding beneath my supposedly flawless skin.
