Chapter 4

  "I will really make you beautiful tonight!"

  She grabbed my hands, and we went to a table full of makeup products. I was sitting in a swivel chair as she scanned my face. There was a grin line on her lips that proved that she was disappointed at my face. I could not blame her though because that's the usual reaction I received from anyone who had seen my face.

  "You know... You're very ugly.."

  I laughed at her. She was straightforward and I liked it. "Thank you for the compliment."

  "Though I am not going to joke in here, okay? You are ugly but you have inner beauty."

  "What are you going to do?"

  "I am going to transform you into someone so gorgeous!"

  Oh, God, that was very impossible. There was surely no product to hide my pimples. My eyes looked so ugly and I looked dehydrated. Pia, as expected, kept cursing while make-up-ing me, finding a nice lipstick for my lips.

  "Oh, I wonder if you ever wash your face or what! There is so much dirt all around your face!"
