Beautiful and Cruel by Briana Florido

Why do i always have to be the one picked last, why cant I be the one all the boys choose first to be in their team. Oh well, i guess they want them because thier "beautiful", what is beautiful anyways. Is it their lips, their body, their lack of intelligence? Hmm I suppose I wound never know; unless I become one, but I know I wouldnt be one of them even if I tried. My mom said that one day I was going to be the most beautiful girl in school, which I never believed because she always said stuff to compliment me since I was her daughter.I mean isnt it what moms do, make their children feel better by feeding them lies. I always wanted to know how it felt to be pretty. What if i did grow up to be beautiful? Will I still keep my intelligence and my personality? Wow would i want to know that! If I were ever to become pretty the first thing I would do is...get a cute boyfriend, now wouldnt that be every girls dream! They would all envy me and all the boys will be after me. Yes. Maybe my mom is right.
