Tori's Shadow
Trina will always be Tori's shadow. Is there a way for her to finally be an individual person? Or will she stay being Tori's shadow. Knowing that there is no way for her to shine...
"No one likes you!" The words rang in my head causing me a headache. Those words were true though, no one liked me. My own parents didn't want me around. A dagger ran through me whenever I hear those words. The A-Listers hate me. I hear all those words they say behind my back. This causes the dagger to go through my body even more. The pain is sometimes so intense that I can't even breathe. My lungs tighten, causing me more pain. Crying was never the way to solve this problem. I sometimes even weep for hours but nobody cares about me. It's always been this way.
This never happens to Tori. Tori were always the favourite, the girl every girl wants to be and the girl every guy wants to date. Tori were the talented one, the one that my parents adored. Everyone loves her. Well, not everyone loves her but no one likes me. Tori's voice was loved by everyone. However, my voice, people either do fake smiles to not hurt my feelings. Or do disgusted faces as my voice was bad. Tori had it all, looks, friends, talent. I look fat compared to Tori. Whenever I look into the mirror, I see the flab all over my body. Tori was skinny, boys thought she had a nice figure. I've always wanted to be skinny. I've tried starving myself, but it always backfires. Tori had good friends, friends that loved her for who she is. I don't have friends. Everyone hates me. Tori's voice is amazing, my jealousy boils even more whenever I hear her sing. My voice is horrible, my dancing is horrible, and everything about me is horrible. I guess I'll always be Tori's shadow...
"Mum, dad, are you coming to see my one woman show?" I asked. I could tell by their faces that they didn't want to. The pain inside became stronger as my heart became pierced.
"Sorry Trina, but your mother and I promised Tori we will see her performance. Maybe next time," my dad said. My dad and mum hugged Tori; they're both proud of my younger sister as she got the main role. Tori was beaming, she was stealing my own parents. My jealousy bubbled inside of me. I hated her. I hate her so much. Luckily I control my anger and tried to disguise my jealousy, so I wouldn't yell at them that they will not be a next time.
"My play would be so much better! I'm really talented. My singing is better than hers!" I boast. I start singing and I could tell they hated it. Even in my own ears, I could tell it was horrible. I continued singing, oblivious to whatever they're talking about. I already knew. I pretended, I didn't care, even though it hurts so much. I'll always be Tori's shadow...
This is my 1st story. Hope you like it.
