Imperfections (Zalfie)

I pressed publish on my new blog post. I hope it goes down well, it was a haul. I had just come back from a holiday and bought so much stuff.

I closed the lid of my laptop and walked over to my dressing table. I looked at myself and noticed that I had smudged my lipstick.

I picked up my lipstick and touched it up before pouting my lips. I don't like my lips. I don't like much if I'm honest.

I am so insecure about myself, I don't like it. Also my anxiety gets in the way.

I jumped as I heard a knock at the door.

"Who is it?!" I shouted

There was no answer, I only heard the creak of the door signalling that it had been opened.

I turned around, only to be pelted in the face with a huge amount of silly string.

"JOE!" I screamed, shocked by the sudden force.

Joe went into fits if hysterical laughter, literally holding his stomach.

It was then that I saw the camera behind him, recording my actions.

I huffed and crossed my arms. Brothers are so annoying.

Joe and I get along, quite well actually compared to most siblings. Just he likes to pull practical jokes on me, which gets on my nerves.

When Joe had finished laughing we heard our mother shout from downstairs, "DINNER KIDS!"

We shouted back a quick okay and ran down the stairs like it was a race.

Of course, I won.
