I stared at myself in the mirror. My green eyes and curtain of black hair never impressed me. 

Ugly.

I walk back to my room and sit on my bed, blinking back tears. 

Why do I hate my life so much? 

I walked upstairs and searched for my parents, if they were here. I only saw my sister, Kyra, sitting on the couch watching TV. 

"Hi Rachelle.", she greets.

I don't feel like talking, so I just smile and walk back downstairs. I fear that she'll find out what's happening, and I'll turn her into some depressed monster. She's only ten...

When I reached my room, I sat down and opened my laptop. Logging into Facebook, I notice numerous notifications and messages.

Strange. I thought no one would ever want to talk to me, I think. 

I scroll on over to my wall, and I find every thought in my head spread across my wall. Moving the mouse across the screen, I find that my "friend", Julie, posted a not-so-nice comment about me.

i bet u all heard about rachelle...ty told me.....what a slut and an ogre lol.....

Her post rambled on about what Ty supposedly told her. She knows that I have a major crush on Tyler Jackson, and I have no idea why she would do this. I bite my lip and dare to look at the comments. 

I slammed the laptop shut and looked up into the mirror.

Fat. Ugly. Weird.

Rolling over to my back, I cried until I fell asleep.

Now I begin my battle with myself.
