Each sarcastic comment, every mocking laugh, was now Charmaine’s reckoning.

Outside, the sun shone brightly, casting a golden glow on Charmaine’s face as she focused deeply on the test. Her pale skin and refined features stood out, giving her an almost ethereal look. The laughter that once ridiculed her began to change.

“Hold up. How did I never notice? Charmaine’s actually pretty.”

“Yeah, she is. She doesn’t even have a beauty mark yet. If she’d stayed in freshman year, Leah wouldn’t be the class beauty now.”

Leah smiled weakly, clearly forcing the expression. “I’m fine, Celeste.”
