1 A Scar From The Pas (2/2)
”Are you sure she isn't crazy”, whispered one girl.
”She got such a nice face but is weird”, replied the other girl.
”Well, she rejects a handsome guy every other day. It's not a special day today”, scoffed Natalie sitting down on her chair.
Claire had always been an extraordinary girl from her alluring beauty, fearless personality to academic excellence, she made people believe in the possibility of perfection. She was arguably the most beautiful girl in the school. Her face was young without one blemish to Mar its perfectly pale complexion. Her coral black curls tumbled over her shoulders. Her smile used to leave people breathless. And the one thing that made her so unimaginably attractive was her deep hazel eyes. She had a comely figure which was stem-thin. Her scrolled ears and her elegant nose were delicate enough to be noticed. Her brows were soft and serene with purity and wisdom.
It would be tough for a mortal to not feel something, something greater than an instant infatuation, something akin to respect and absolute wonder at the work of genes when looking at her.
Although her beauty was strikingly stunning behind that hid unknown and unspoken mysteries. Her appearance might draw people in but her stiff and distant personality would push you far away.
She was desired by many but never once did she get close to any.
She was untouchable and that made some to envy her while others to reject her. She couldn't care less and lived her way, in her own world.

”Why do they always embarrass me like that. It gets awkward every time for me to talk to other kids. Ah! I'm so sick of it”, I sighed.
”Shouldn't you get used to it by now, I feel like you should just go out with one of them and shut everyone up. They spread nonsense rumors and keep gossiping about it”, declared Emily, my only friend.
”Never, you know what their intentions are. They just want to go out with me to show off.”
”Dating the prettiest girl at school who also is at the top of her class. I envy your future boyfriend more than you.”
”I can end that jealousy for you. Let's date. It's the best way out.”
”After I lose all my hope.”
We walked towards the class giggling.
