Chapter 11 Your Face Resembles the Moon's Surface

Violeta vented her frustration as she criticized Zelena, who cried miserably. Everyone rushed to comfort Zelena and ignored Violeta. They thought of her as an uneducated and wicked dunce

Violeta thought to herself. I don't care. After all, they aren't any better. Everyone had bullied Violeta cruelly and picked on her in her previous life. Zelena wiped her tears and completely ignored what Violeta had said. "Sis, you must not like this dress. I'll pick a better one for you next time." Violeta was speechless. "Don't you understand what I said? Do I have to speak in another language? Or should I make up a new language for you?" Everyone was dumbstruck. Violeta's insults were on another level!

"Violeta, you're way out of line! Zelena is trying to be nice to you, but you keep berating her. You're so crass!"

"That's right, I'm crass. Why do you keep talking to me, then? Are you dumb? Leave me alone. I don't want to talk to you."

"Violeta, are you feeling unwell?"

Violeta retorted, "Yes. I must insult all the fools I see. Otherwise, I'll die."

"Is she mad? She keeps spouting nonsense and barking like a mad dog!"

Violeta rebutted, "Why do you keep talking to me if that's the case? Are you out of your mind? Did you suffer a major concussion?"

"Should we call the police? Isn't anyone going to do anything?"

Violeta retaliated, "You're so ugly. Don't stand in front of me. If you call the police, they'll take you away. Look at your face. It looks exactly like the moon's surface, filled with craters." Violeta's classmates were up comedian? How does she come up with such insults?
