Fixing Penny

I looked across to the playground where two silhouetted boys were waving at us. This was such a bad idea. How could I have been so stupid as to agree to this? Penny Danske was not the sneak-out-in-the-middle-of-the-night-in-skimpy-clothes-to-meet-boys kind of girl. But it was too late to back out. Netta was dragging me by the arm.

Growing up is hard. Penny desperately wants to be accepted - she thinks that if she can become 'cool', all her problems will go away. What Penny doesn't realise is that moulding herself into something she's not, isn't the answer. When her act becomes second nature, she can no longer tell where the act ends and the real Penny begins.
Penny finds friends, she finds a place to fit, and she finds love. However, what she really needs to do is find herself. The real Penny needs to be put back together. She needs to be fixed.
