How should I start? Should I introduce myself first? Like, "Hi! I'm a pimple. How are you?" You know, being a pimple is hard. It's tiring. People hates you. She hates you; but why do you hate me, if you're partly the one to be blamed? I can hear complaints everywhere. I can hear complaints from her; but what can I do? I'm a pimple, it's my life, and it's rough.

Today, she woke up very late. She didn't bother to eat breakfast and hurriedly went to school. That's because she stayed up late last night. And here I am, on the spot where she hated the most. I'm on her nose where I could clearly see what's going on. Since she woke up, I could hear murmurs from her. She even tried to pop me; but what can I do? I'm a pimple, it's my life, and it's rough.

For the next days, I became bright red and looked like going to burst anytime soon. I guess it was because she ate lots of oily foods. She ate everything she wanted, not bothering about me. I could see in her eyes that she despised me; but what can I do? I'm a pimple, it's my life, and it's rough.

Then, she became desperate. She put everything on her face. She wanted to get prettier, but it only made me irritated. I multiplied. I became more reddish. I wanted to burst. At that time, she started doing things I didn't expect. She didn't sleep late at night anymore. She avoided eating oily foods. She washed her face regularly.

Yes, I'm just a pimple, and it's a rough life with her; but I'm glad I brought change to her lifestyle. She finally learned how to care for herself.
