Chapter 1: Flaw
Hey, I am soooo happy I got some reviews on my first real story. LOVE YA! So, anyway, I like this first chapter. It is quite depressing. And it is hard not to get confused. This is sorta like a prologue. PLEASE REVIEW. I LOOOOVE YA'.
XXXXXXXXXXXXX
Let's pretend everyone is always perfect. That would mean we are all the same person. We need flaws in order to maintain a healthy society. But if one person were perfect, that would be okay. Unfortunately, that is impossible. Imperfections are what keep the world going. If there were nothing to fix, then there would be no point to most products and services. And if everyone were perfect, there would be nothing to gain in this world. Nothing to gain means no point to society.
But what if someone was perfect. What if they were flawless and beautiful in every way? That would be weird and even a bit creepy. This flawless person however, would only be perfect to a certain point. They're hiding something; something that only you know about. Something that is crushing this person inside because deep down they are not perfect. And if their main goal is to be perfect, keeping this secret is the only way to keep their social rank. Their social height is everything to them.
If they knew that you know this secret, you would somehow be shunned. The perfect person would lie about whom you are to make you sound like the bad guy. But you aren't the bad guy; you want to help. Because the obsession with perfection is becoming an unhealthy lie. And lying is a flaw.
You know all the weaknesses of this person. Every flaw, blemish, imperfection, and secret is yours to tell. However, this person is your friend. And betrayal is bad, and being bad is a flaw.
You don't want to be perfect. You know perfection is an unreachable, unrealistic goal. You have flaws, and these flaws give you pride. And pride is a flaw, sorta. So, if perfection is a goal that can't be reached, why does this person want it so bad? Only you know, and the reason is scary. Avoiding this person is your only defense. Your only strength is to stay silent.
But you know this person needs you. They need you more than even you know. But sticking your butt into other people's business is pure stupidity. And stupidity is a flaw. Especially if this person has social powers over you.
So let's review what we have learned, shall we? Perfection is unreachable. If you tell this person's secret, you will be hated. But if you keep this person's secret, you will hate yourself. So either way, you will be loathed. But if you have nothing to lose but this person, and this person is obsessed with their goal, you should probably do something. Because nobody will ever reach perfection. Perfection is a flaw.
This is this person's story. Her name is Elowyn Murray. She hates you. But that is a secret because hate is a flaw.
Sorry this was so short. Next chapter will be longer. Does anyone know how to make a page break? I will love you forever if you tell me. So, if you want my eternal love, TELL ME!
