The Gum Chronicles (Ongoing)

"When everyone talked about something, I had to talk.
When everyone had a smile on his/her faces, I had to have one.
When everyone laughed, I had to laugh.
When everyone was having fun, I had to have fun.
When everyone stopped, I had to stop.

I had the need to be like them.

But then and there,
I knew that I was different."

Violet Mitchell is a typical 12-year-old girl. But at her elementary school, she’s admired, well-liked and yes, accepted. She’s the ultimate smarty pants and she always tops at her class. Every boy and girl wanted to be friends with her. When she graduates as the valedictorian, many things came to her mind -- study at Appleton High, play scrabble with friends, eat ice cream with Alicia after school and other things high school students do.

But everything changed after she and her parents moved to another place, Moonset City. And she has to go to a new school, Moonset City High.

Violet was not the so-called “Miss Popular” at her new school anymore. She was ignored and overlooked by the crowd, to the point that she has become invisible to them.

Will Violet ever have the same status in high school as she was in elementary? Or will she just end up being a part of the students who had always fantasized about being popular?
