They say I possess a heavenly face but a hellish personality. I'm a beautiful girl with a multitude of skeletons in my closet and a label of being a sociopath.

What do I mean by 'sociopath'? Firstly, I lack any true friends; my classmates wish ill upon me, from being hit by a truck to far worse. Secondly, excelling academically puts a target on my back, making me a natural scapegoat. Lastly, my primary means of communication is English, which isn't always appreciated in the township where I live. My name is Sharon Nonhle Zulu, I'm sixteen, and yes, I'm Zulu and partly Tswana, although that's not relevant here. This is the tale of the toughest year of my life and how I navigate the chaos of teenage fever.
