SCARLET'S POV

HEY GUYS THIS IS ANOTHER STORY IS IT HARD TO LOVE YOUR SELF IS LIKE A MOTIVATIONAL STORY HOPE YOU LIKE IT :) ❤️❤️

Why is life so cruel? Why can't I find people who will understand me? I was asking myself questions. I am so tired of life treating me like this. 

My parents call me a disgrace. They like my sister more than me. They always tell me how they regret the day I was born. At school, everyone avoids me.

 I have no friends at school, only my books. I just wish I was perfect enough for everyone. I have the ugliest face with acne all over.

 My sister is always spreading gossip that I have a disease. That's why I am like this. I so wish I wasn't born into this world. Sometimes I wish I could take my own life.

 Life's so cruel it isn't worth anything. My parents treat me as their maid. I live up in the attic. I have to stay there because my parents don't want any one to know I exist. At school. 

I am not to tell anyone my identity. Everyone hates me and I hate myself. I don't think I can ever be happy.

I am in the school library reading the book "The 39 Clues."

 I come here every day during lunch break and any free time, and I come so early, I am the first person to arrive at school. I always am. I came before with my sister Eleanor, so I won't be seen with her.

I heard a noise coming from outside. I checked my watch; it wasn't yet 8:00 for students to start coming.

 I went outside to the backyard of the school and saw four boys smoking. They were shouting for no reason.

 How could they be smoking in school? Don't they know they can get caught? I asked myself this question. The smoke was affecting my nostrils, so I had to leave.

 Just as I was about to leave, one of them caught me. Oh no! What am I to do? I didn't answer him. I just quickly went back to the library. I hope I don't run into him again.

It was luchtime and I had been avoiding that boy ever since.

 I opened the library and took the book I was reading, then opened my lunch box and took the sandwich there and started eating it when I heard the door open. 

It was the boy with brown hair who had called me. I tried to hide, but he saw me. He came to where I was and asked, "Why were you running away from me when I called you?" I couldn't answer. 

Then he repeated himself again and then I stammered, "I don't know." Then he said, "What you saw Make sure you don't tell any authority else."

 Then he just left. I didn't mind that because I had no business with him or his friends.

When school was over, Eleanor called me "scarlet acne come here ." 

That wasn't my name, but she called me that because I have a lot of acne on my face. 

I tried to tell my parents to buy cream to stop it, but they didn't want to "hi, umm... Eleanor, what do you want?" I need you to carry my schoolbag to my car.

 I am exhausted.  I looked at her minions in the back who were gigling . I just did what she said because I didn't want any trouble. 

Just as I was about to put it in her car, she yelled "stop!! I can't let your filthy hands on it. I didn't ask you to enter my car. I asked you to carry my bag. " Then she and her friends just zoomed off.

 I wonder what was wrong with her. I shouldn't touch her car, but I could touch her bag. And besides, wasn't the car mine too? I guess to my parents, I don't have any belongings.

I worked as a waitress at a cafe. I worked there so I could get money for some things my parents would never buy for me, like clothes, shoes, bags, and a lot more. 

The only time they buy me shoes or bags is at the beginning of the school year, and I have to use them for two years. My clothes are not always neat because I don't even have enough clothes to wear.

When I got to the cafe, I saw my best friend Alex. She is my only friend. She is so awesome. I went up to her and spoke "hi" "hey how are you doing" "fine" I replied, then we started our shift.

When our shift was over, we went to buy ice cream. I always love that "yummy." When we were done, we sat down on a bench. 

She spoke, "Scarlet, I want to tell you something. Please don't be sad." "What's it?" "I will be traveling tomorrow, so I won't be here for two weeks." I couldn't believe it.

 My best friend is going to be gone for two weeks. I will so miss her. "I will miss you." "I will miss you too," she said and then we hugged. 

I looked at my watch. Oh no, I was late. I waved goodbye to Alex and went home.

When I got home, my dad and mum were already waiting for me. "Why were you home late?" My dad yelled. I didn't speak.

 I was just looking at the ground. "Come and clean everywhere. We are expecting a visitor and make sure not to show your face." My mum said. I nodded and began my work.

An hour later, when I was done, I went to the attic to change. When I was done, I heard the door open. I knew my parents said I shouldn't come out, but I had to see who it was. 

Oh, it was the boy that was smoking and his parents. I decided to go back up and read my book since I didn't want him to see me even though I wanted to eavesdrop on what they were saying.

A few minutes later, I was suddenly very hungry. I decided to come out and get a snack from the small kitchen upstairs.

 Just as I came out, I saw the boy and my sister. Oh no, they saw. My sister yelled, "Scarlet!! What are you doing here?! " The boy looked shocked and was staring at me.

 I just knew that I had gotten myself into so much trouble that my parents were going to kill me.
