Chapter 3: Why are you ugly?!


    Li Seulbi remained in the toilet for a long time , before heading towards the sink. She looked at herself


    in the mirror. Her eyes were red and swollen because of crying relentlessly.


    Her face was a little pale and lips were dry. She had a messy hair. Looking at herself in mirror, she


    sensed a massive feeling of sadness engulfing her heart again.


    She touched the mirror as if she was touching herself and questioned herself" Why are you so ugly?! "


    She washed her face many times and again looked herself in mirror. She found no difference in her


    face from before.


    She shouted " Why?!..Why?! Why people hate me because of my appearance?!Will...Will they love me


    if i look pretty?!..Will.. they be my friends and not bully me?!...But is it even.. possible?"She felt hurt and


    dissappointed too.


    She didn''t know what time it was but when she came out from restroom , the sun was already setting


    down. She noticed that the school was already over and beside her, there were only few staff left in the

    school.


    She grabbed her bag and left school. Her home was quite far from school. It took 15 minutes to reach


    her home by subway. She came home and begin to search for someone.


    Li Seulbi''s mother, Zhao Seong, died in an ident when Seulbi was only 3. Her father, Li Cheng,


    remarried after few weeks of Zhao Seong''s death. Seulbi''s step mother, Tang Fian, had twins children


    but they were a boy and a girl.


    Her son was named as Li Ruan and daughter was named as Li Ri. Li cheng used to work in some


    trading business. So, he used to be out of home often times.This way, he didn''t get any chance to


    interact more with his family.


    Tang Fian was clever yet selfish. She used to make Li Seulbi to do home chores as she and her


    children would enjoy rxing. Whenever Li cheng visits home at night, she acts exhausted as she was


    tired of doing house chores.


    And used toin about Seulbi beingzy all the time. This caused Li cheng to feel a little


    disappoint towards Seulbi.


    Li Ruan was the only son in the family , so, Li Cheng used to treat him quite well.As for Li Ri, she was


    quite beautiful and talented in sports. She got many achievements which made Cheng feel proud. Li


    Seulbi was good at studies.


    But due to her appearance, No one looked her good side rather they talked about about her uglyness.


    This made Tang Fian and her children feel embarrased even walking with her in the public.They hated


    Seulbi and always treated her very bad.


    Li Seulbi was aware of everything. She knew that her step mom and her step brothersister didn''t like


    her. She knew that her step mom used to talk lies about her to her father.


    She knew that her neighbors used to sidetalk about her uglyness. But, she didn''t even care. She used


    to pretend that she didn''t know about all these happenings.


    Because,first she didn''t want any disputes in the family because of her and secondly there was


    someone who used to give her confidence to fight with those changes. And she was Seulbi''s


    grandmother, Su Yumi.


    Su Yumi loved her granddaughter, Li Seulbi , more than others. After Seong''s death, She knew Seulbi


    will be lonely ,so, she stayed by her side since Seulbi was child.


    She yed with her , told her stories , taught her good manners, and did all the things that a mother


    does for her child. She made her feel that she wasnot alone in this world.


    So, Seulbi always felt that Su Yumi wasn''t her grandmother but her own mother. Yumi was a frank


    person so she allowed Seulbi to call her by name.


    Li Seulbi used to tell whatever bad things happened to her to Yumi....So, Yumi was the one who she


    was looking for after she came from school that day, to tell her about the happenings that


    day...
