Just curious.... Would anyone read this story if this was the blurb?
The Odd One Out
Blurb
All my life I was always the odd one out. Among my peppy family, I was considered the dark one because I was never happy. With my friends, I was the loner since I didn’t care if I had company or not. It seemed that no matter what I did, I couldn't fit in and after a while, I just gave up trying. I didn't see the point of trying to please other people, not when I was making myself miserable by doing so. The only person you need to keep happy is yourself, everyone else is just something in the background. To me, they were nothing to bother with, just people who kept you from being bored.
That was how I viewed the world from the time I was twelve. It worked out in my favour for ten years. I accepted the fact that I would remain the oddball, but it seemed as if fate had something else planned for me. That plan came in the form of a man named Romeo.
From the very first time we met he had me captivated, unable to think straight. I wanted nothing to do with him and yet he always managed to find a way to intrude on my life in any way he could. He wanted to see the “real” me behind the mask, the girl that nobody ever understood. Unfortunately, I liked the girl that I was, the character I hid behind.
To let someone in again would be the hardest thing I would ever have to do. While my head screamed at me not to, my heart was begging to heard. The only problem was would I listen to my head or my heart?
Do I condemn myself to a life of solitude and mystery or open myself up to opportunity and love?
Any and all feedback would be great!
