The Gift

Oh!
A gift?
For me?
What have I done to deserve such beuaty?
Such magnificence?
The startled looks on everyone's faces tell me that it really is for me.
The girl who is ignored.
Bullied.
Teased.
But that doesn't matter anymore.
Someone realized that I'm here!
I am astonished.
The curiosity creeps in, and I take the gift and run into the bathroom stall.
I tore open the paper...
And...





Nothing.
An empty box.
The tears brim my eyes, even though I shouldn't have expected much in the first place. Still, I am surprised beyond belief.
