The Mask
I have used it to cover up all of my emotions. It is completely the opposite of what I feel. It has covered everything the past 10 years. And I, Kumiko Rika, has sealed away anything that shows whom I am, until that one unforgettable day.
"She is the most prettiest and most delicate girl I have ever seen!" whispered a girl as I, Miss Kumiko, walked by.
Story of my life. I always smile and where the vile color pink whenever I can. I love reading romance novels and watching chick-flicks. In the end, that is just my mask. I actually have an emotionless face when no one notices, love the color red and black, I love reading horror and action novels, watching horror and scary movies, and I love creeping out people for fun. There reaction is priceless. The only thing that me and my mask really have in common is that we both are really good in tennnis, and is at a nationa level, the only things is, she doesn't want anyone to know, but plays in secret. So in the end, I try to blend in where people can't do anything to make fun of me like on that one day. I have lived under it for almost my whole life, and that brings up the point of my parents even forgetting who I actually am.
But when I was born, people thought I was the most beautiful thing they have seen. I have amber brown hair with a small tint of gold with black etching all over my hair. And I had sparkling yellow eyes with a small petite body to go with it. I remember when I was young I would show my demonic side. It wasn't very pretty, and soon, I had to hide that side from anybody who new me. That was the beginning of the life of the mask. I am 13 now. Most people have forgotten, even my parents what has happened and so they think I am the picture perfect daughter.
Flashback-The first grade(skipped few grades, 3 years old)
"Hey Miss Kumiko, what are your interests?"
"Well I live scaring people for fun and love watching horror movies."
"That's all a lie, right?"
Before Kumiko could answer, it was already time for reccess.
When Kumiko wants fun, she scares people and does the funniest of pranks, but she can be a bit sadistic and so many people don't think it is funny, or people that she would of never of done that, she is to innocent.
But that one time when she pulled a prank, she got detention, and usually all her parents want from her good grades and resposibility from her. So when her parents got wind of things, it wasn't pretty. They made her endure so much pain, she had to go to the hospital, and they didn't really care. She then decided to seal everything that day. She knows that she should never show her true self, and so she has a scar on her back that reminds her of the pain.
End Flashback
I tend to keep this mask on for the rest of my life, all the way untill that unfaithful day when I ran into Fuji Shusuke and Tezuka Kunimitsu.
