"What the fuck just happened?" I demanded. I pursed my lips, staring in to the distance still perplexed. My face held an expression as if Rafael took out a rhinoceros from his pocket.
"Do you think I have a fucking clue?" Rafael responded back, more frustrated than ever. I could imagine the sparks in his brain, desperately trying to connect the dots and instead just causing a short circuit. He looked like one of those pop-eyed toys you would see in someone's car. Perfectly funny, I thought. I shook my head in order to whisk the speculation away. Right now I could only think about one thing: my wish was becoming her reality. The worst thing is? I couldn't decide if it was for the better or for the worse.
***
Vivian Rose; average girl mind you. She always aimed to sit down at the popular teens' table, and, with a boyfriend as a jock, it didn't seemed as if that goal was far of reach. However, one thing leads to another and she suddenly despises the word 'popularity'. Instead, to make it more simple, she'd rather not exist.
Rafael Ocampo: total opposite of Vivian. He has never wanted to be with the 'cliche people' at his school. He's happiest out of the spotlight, behind his book, unseen and unnoticed. But then, rumours spread, and he loathes his new reputation, and wishes to leave no trace of him upon this world.
What happens when their wish becomes their reality?
SIDE NOT: this book is going to be written in third point of view for the first couple of chapters

If Ella dates Ren, it will ruin her friendship with Jenny. But if she stays true to Jenny, she's losing the one person who can see past her scars. It's up to Ella to decide if she will forge her own path, or stay in the "perfect" box designed for her...
