The story follows Mirabel a beautiful teenage girl known by everyone for her angelic face, calm nature, and godly image. As the daughter of a pastor, people assume she is perfect - sinless, holy, and untouched by worldly thoughts. But deep inside, Mirabel battles a storm no one sees.
Behind her soft smile lies a mind filled with complex thoughts. She doesn't act on them, but she knows her thoughts aren't always "pure." She silently struggles with body shaming. Thin and lacking curves, people often tease her, sometimes jokingly, but their words cut deep. It makes her question her worth and beauty, leading her into silent battles with self-esteem and identity.
Mirabel also has many fleeting crushes - dozens a day - but none of them are serious. She knows it's a coping mechanism for loneliness and curiosity. She tells herself that the day she finds true love - real and mutual - all the crushing will stop.
Despite her beauty, she believes nobody could ever truly love her beyond the face. She thinks: "What if I'm not enough without my beauty?" She rejects genuine feelings from others because she doubts their intentions. She longs to be seen, understood, and loved for who she is, not just her appearance.

Both are solitary birds seeking a shoulder to lean on without even knowing it.

Unnoticed
This is a true story one that's difficult to read... a simple story that talks about some hard things. It's a story about a girl and her mind. Most of you will stop and look away now, thinking that it will be boring, and I'm not going to stop you from walking away. It's your decision. Life is full of those. Decisions, choices that we make which each change the course of our life. I recommend you read this book. It's not your typical girl meets guy story. No it has nothing to do with that, but it does show you something that I think to humanity is more important than that, and truly I am not saying this because I am the author but if you read this book I don't think that it is one of the decisions you will regret in life. It isn't easy to read, so consider it a challenge in which you have nothing to lose if you participate. So I ask you, Why not participate? " I stared into the mirror and I knew; I simply knew what I was getting into. This was my decision. The one that decided to take my joy out of life. To suck it away, and I just watched. I just watched as my soul got carried away in the wind. I watched knowing that it was all the voice's fault. The monster that raged inside of me took control, and I again just watched as I let go of my grasp on it. It broke lose with a feral scream, and so that was when chaos begun..."Abgeschlossene Geschichte
