1 I Am So Ugly

Love is not what, you get because you are beautiful. Love is what, you get because of your soul. Someone's beauty is not defined by body and physical appearance. Someone's beauty is defined by their soul, that how much, beautiful that person's soul is?

The school campus was crowded with childrens. Everyone was laughing and talking amongst themselves.

A car parked in the middle of the entrance, from which, the school Belle, alighted like a princess.

Avery Brown , the girl whose looks make boy's eyes flat on her, whose smile, can take anyone's breath.

Tha soon she puts her legs, in the campus, got surrounded by her school friends.

Seeing her, every boy's eyes in that campus, stopped on her. Satisfied with that, that her beauty can stole anyone's attention. She gave a smile to her friends and hugged all her friends one by one.

" How cool are you, Avery? Every boy is looking at you, even David too. The most handsome boy of our school!! "

One of her friends said to her.

" So what do you mean? I should too look at him to give response. Really!! Don't I have my beauty, why I would look down at him? "

" What do you mean? " Her frond said.

" I mean, the person for whom I would fall for, would have a personality, like which not ever you would have seen anyone, on this earth. Got it !! Anyways !! Let's go to the classroom."

"Wait, Wait, Wait , Avery don't you want to have some fun, today?" One of her friends said with a evilous smile on her face.

" What do you mean? " Avery amazed by her friends words, didn't understand what she wants to say after all.

" See there." Her friend pointed her finger towards the entrance gate of school campus.

....

Shiny had been late a lot of times for school, for which she was being threatened by the class teacher a lot. But today she is happy , because she is not late.

She ever came to school late, so as she didn't bump into Avery or her friends. They often bully her, for her ugly face with such a beautiful name, "Shiny".

She was walking in a hurry, lowered head, trying, none of them saw her. And she just, moved to the class anyway, as soon as possible.

Suddenly, she felt someone tall in front of her. But she was in a hurry, so she gave that person a side, but didn't stopped her legs.

As she moved ten steps ahead, from that person, a another person came in her way.

"Shiny !" Avery called her.

Shiny was to cross that person too. But she got encircled by a lot of persons. She got understand that she is being caught by their eyes. And now no one can save her.

" Shiny, where are you going in such a hurry? Don't you want to meet us, yourrr.. friends ? Hahhaahhaa ..." Avery laughed as she is having the pleasure of Shiny's silence. She did high five with one of her friend.

Shiny ignored her words, moved her legs for the class. But Avery and her friend chased her and circled her again.

"Even so, what is the hurry, to get rid of us?" Avery said angrily and helded her hand strongly.

Shiny tried to get rid of her grip, but she is still not that grown up, as Avery is. " Let me go ! " she said irritably. But she didn't relieved her hand.

" By the way, I heard that last night was your birthday party. Who and who has came to the party? What are gifts you get, yesterday? Don't you will share that with your friends? " Every girl was enjoying that drama, created by Avery, of Shiny.

Shiny didn't replied to her, but when she asked about last night. The heart pain from last night, and the hand pain she is giving her now, both started whelming tears in her eyes. But she is trying to control it, because if she would cry, they will make her cry more.

Avery's eye fell on her, hair pins, which was looking new and quite beautiful. She pinched off those hair pins from her hair, brutally.

Shiny's eyes which she was trying to control the tears, flooded with tears. Her hairs was paining because of that pinch off. She got fell on the campus ground for supporting her body, which was feeling weak because of last night's cry, when no one of them, whom she had invited to her birthday came to celebrate her happiness.

" I think this is your birthday gift, right. Who give it to you? Tell me.....otherwise... " Avery put those pins under her foot and threatened her. Other girls standing circling her, were laughing at her.

Shiny is not able to speak because of her continuous crying. Boohoo..... Boohoo....

" Tell me.... otherwise, I would really broke it.." Threatening her, she slowly started her foot coming down, to smash those pins.

"Noooo... Boohoo..... " Suddenly she tried her whole power to utter this single word.

" If no, then tell me. " She again threatened her by her action. She put her leg more closer to those pins.

" Mammmaaa..... Boohoo... Mammmaaa...."

Shiny cried and begged for those pins.

"So, your Mamma gifted this to you. Your Mom have quite pretty choice, I liked it...But.."

Avery wanted to tempt her, for those pins. She was quite satisfied, seeing her teary eyes.

Shiny looked at Avery, from her weary pathetic eyes. She stand up again, collecting herself whole.

"But... you know what. This pin don't look like, it was made for you. .... I mean to say, such an ugly face with such beautiful pins. You will even destroying these pins beauty. "Avery like it, to say Shiny that she is so ugly, so so ugly.

"No matter ! I am ugly or these pins are beautiful. But these pins are mine... Understand!!! " Shiny shouted with her whole strength, flung on her to get her pins. But she couldn't reach her height.

" Ohhh.... Now this black cat have the power, to dare, to shout at me..... See everyone.. See.."

Avery helded, Shiny's small cheeks in her palms, pressing it hard, pouring her whole anger into that.

Avery moved her face a bit closer to Shiny's face, pressing her cheeks.

"You know what !! If I would have been at your place...then till now I would had already killed myself. How an ugly person like you, can even live their life, with such a clumsy face...."

She knocked her down at the ground, brutally.

She threw her pins on the ground.

"And what do you think... you can attract any boy using these pins? Not even Tyler, that cartoon, will attract from you!! Get it!! "

Avery said every word pissing her teeth.

" Brrrrrrriiiiiiiiinnnnnnngggg..... " The school bell ranged, which echoed through the campus, signing students to come for the class.

Avery left with all her friends , they were all calling her, loser... and were laughing at her.

Shiny was still crying like a hopeless and helpless girl.

.....

Everyone left the campus, headed for their classrooms. She was sobbing, she collected her belongings, headed for class.

"May I come in teacher? "She said in hoarse, that is due to cry.

Miss Jessica is the most strict teacher of the school. Now, it's her class.

A lot of times, she had threatened Shiny, for being late. But again she is late. As if she has been promised herself, that she would come late, do what you can?

Miss Jessica was writing something on the board. But she listened to the person on the door. And she knows it, who is there?

Without wasting precious time on that she said, "Get out of my class !!"

Shiny was still on the door, when Miss Jessica turned herself to start the topic.

" Ma'am, Please!! "Shiny requested to her.

"You didn't left. I said, just... get out !!" Miss Jessica shouted irritably. Since Shiny has been troubling her, from the first day of her class.

She left from there, without saying anything.

And joined the class, from second period.

...

After school, she reached her home. Her sad face was not hidden from Isabella, her mother. She could feel it that, from what her girl is suffering from.

After dinner, Shiny was in her bed, her eyes were continuously gazing at the moon.

"So white, so shiny, so beautiful.....Perhaps that's why, everyone loves the moon." Shiny said in despair.

"Hopefully!!, I would be as beautiful as you. Then, everyone would love me too. "

"But... you know what, I don't jealous of you, I am just.. angry from god. He is so bad, so so bad. He made me like this, that no one loves me. No one of my friends, likes to see me.

They..... They.... They hate me."(Her eyes whelmed with tears.) She wiped the tears, from her tiny hands.

"I really want to ask God, what I have done. Why..... why.... he made me like this? Do I.....Do I don't deserve love?, Do I don't.....don't deserve a normal,....simple,.. happy life. Haan!! Tell me....!!! "Again her tears flooded on her cheeks. And again she wiped it.

" Or Avery was saying it right, that I should die? If... It is so, then.... why you sent me on this earth, you shouldn't.... you shouldn't.. I don't want to live this life anymore.. I'm tired.... I'm tired of all these things, suffering it from childhood.

And... And... if you have to sent me on this earth, then...then.. why didn't you sent me there, where there are persons like me. Why you sent me among the society of whites?"

" you know what, I look like a big black spot in this society. They are so beautiful, and I... I am so ugly, just.. just have the name -Shiny.(She smirked at herself.) A black shine... who... who... don't have any shine."

" God made me to make my fun, to make me cry, like I am doing. I think...God would be happy, as Avery and her friends are happy, seeing me crying and... broken." She was really void from inside, she was just like a person who have everything, yet nothing.

Everything means, her whole family loves her ,but yet, it is not enough for a person to live the life without society.

She cried and complained to the God, whole night. And fall asleep crying and sobbing.

....

Isabella and Lucas were on their bed. Ben was sleeping between the two. Isabella was not able to sleep. Lucas eyes were closed, but yet , he hadn't slept, till now.

"Lucas, I am really worried about my daughter. Even if she smile, in front of us, yet... there is difference in , fake smile and true one. "Isabella presented her worries about Shiny to Lucas.

"Don't you worry, no matter what this world says. Everything happens only as god wish. Nothing wrong will happen!! "He assured his wife.

"How I shouldn't worry? She is my daughter. Not for now, I even worry about her marriage. If it will go, like it is going. Then, I don't think, our daughter will get married ever. "

He looked at her.

" you don't worry... as god sent you for me.She would get someone too. "

"Lucas.. we belong to middle class, we just need a happy and respectfull life in this society. And as her mother, I can't stop myself worrying about her and her future.

But for now, I am just asking to change her school. If you have time, then do it as soon as it is possible. "

"Okay, sleep now, as I am feeling sleepy."

Lucas said it, and took Ben in his arms and slept.

Isabella didn't said anything because her husband is a bank managing director. From where, he came late at night from work. So, she didn't disturbed him. As he has to go to office tomorrow.

Her eyes were not closing, due to worries of her daughter's future. At last, she thought to left it on god, about her future.
