Maya Winter

I walk into the lunch line. My nails scratch against the styrofoam tray and I shiver. That is probably my least favorite sound in the universe. I use my tray to cover my nose with a stupid bump in it and my cracked lips.

Too bad I can't cover my eyes. My tired, blue eyes with dark circles underneath them. One is bigger than the other, making them look even worse.

I reluctantly pile the pig's slop onto my tray. It's not like I'm going to eat any of it. The only reason I'm buying today is because the teacher that dismissed our table wouldn't leave until I got in the line.

With a glance toward the lunch lady, I exit the little hallway of many greases and pink slime disguised as different kinds of meat.

Walking out into the lunchroom, the automatic search for someone you like makes me realize how may little people I like. I plop down next to my one and only friend.

"Hey, Hannah," I grumble. Hannah is so happy and optimistic it's almost annoying. How we are still friends? I'm not too sure myself. Her green eyes are lit up and her somewhat long brown hair is braided today. She is wearing a floral dress with a cardigan.

She takes a strand of my bright blonde, waist length hair and tosses it up like confetti. "Cheer up, Maya," she encourages me with a bright smile. It seems she's having an especially good day today.

I heard a familiar voice laugh relativity close to me. That voice feels like a knife cutting through my skin.

It's her.

My friend. Oops. Scratch that. Ex-friend is sitting a couple tables over. Riley. She decided that my lack of popularity was enough to "cancel" our friendship.

Now Hannah is all I have. Really, I barely have her anymore. Everything in her social life hasn't really included me lately. Go ahead, why doesn't everyone just give up on me, huh?

Seven billion people in the world, and I've been chosen to be completely alone.

My eyes were dragged out of curiosity to the popular table. I saw Tyler Dean, "the king", Justin Anderson, Hunter Parker and Cody Adams. The football boys. Cierra West, "the queen", Abby Robinson, Libby Medina. The cheerleader girls.

The most stereotypical popular kids table ever. Of course, Tyler is dating Cierra. Who else would he be dating?

Tyler has spiky blonde hair and always wears striped t shirts. Cierra is also blonde with the most perfect face imaginable and a different designer outfit everyday.

And all I want is to be like them. Not in the sense that you can bully kids like me. Only in the sense that people would like me. Respect me.

It looks like for that to happen I'm going to need to do some serious work.
