My name is Molly. And yes, I am the ugliest girl you'll ever see.

Once, I used to be beautiful. I had sunny locks, olive skin and great curves. I was even voted the high school Prom Queen in my junior year.

But on the Christmas Eve of 2014, I was met with a train accident near King's Cross which left my body wrecked forever. It deformed my face, broke my nose at a weird angle and scarred my body. I still limp when I walk as my ankles got sprained.

I simply look terrifying now. I feel like crying when I look at myself in the mirror. Even my family and friends have turned their backs on me. I guess I scare them. Not surprising, since I scare myself too. Last night I went upto my mother's room, but she ran away after fixing me a horrified glare. I tried to communicate with my sister but she too fled out, screaming. I also visited my best friend Stacey, but the moment she saw me she dropped the glass of water in her hand and was gaping at me as if she was going to have a seizure. I left, not wanting to give her a heart attack.

Depressed and exhausted, I decided to just go to sleep. So I went to my grave and lied down, carefully fixing my head in a comfortable position, so that the piece of metal jutting out the back of my forehead wouldn't prick too much.
