Intro

I have a secret...
Can you keep it?
Well here it goes.
  My name is Lei, I'm fifteen.
I know what your thinking, 'that's not a secret'...well... I'm not at that point yet but I will get there... but not now. There is a lot more to me that you don't know yet. I'm not the perfect mold of what teens call a girl...
  I don't look like all the other girls at school. I don't feel like I belong in the perfect popular girl category. I'm just me, and that is a girl who wears sweatshirts and jeans everyday with the same old pair of converse.
  I wear sweatshirts all the time because I hate my body, it's disgusting.
   My skin has betrayed me over the years and God forbids that I will never pick up a weight or a few excercise routines because I'm lazy. I know every girl has these problems but all my insecurities affect me deeply since no one is there for me to tell me otherwise.
  Oh and my mom died when I was just a kid, five to be exact. My dad is still with me but he hasn't been the same and is worse without mom here. Trust me he makes sure that I know that too. I've been beaten a couple of times, tried to commit the big 'S', also tried running away and checking myself in to a foster care home.
   Yeah I've tried it all. I think this is God's way of saying that I'm a tad bit important to be dead. So yeah now that you know who I am and my purpose in life.
  I should get on with the story. It's gonna be a bumpy ride.
  Here we go.
