Apolinaria
One day in the "Middle of the Nowhere City" (also known as MNC) there was a girl named Apolinaria, both her name and her face was so ugly, that her classmates and her friends always tease her as a Monkey. But despite of her ugliness, her family was not poor, she's rich! She even has her own school which is the one she's studying right now! And even if she's the owner of the school, she's so kind that when her classmates tease her, she wouldn't tell it to her mom, the directress of the school, for her to expel those bad people. Wonder why? Just read…..
"Hey you Apolinaria!" says Teodora, her only friend in the school.
"Hey Friend!" Apolinaria replied.
"I just want to tell to you that one of our best enemies, Leopoldo, is teasing you again! Will I slap him?"
"No."
"But why Apolinaria? Why?"
"I have a better plan for him.. A big and better plan!!!"
"I don't like the smile on your face Apolinaria, are you going to do something bad?"
Apolinaria just simply replied with a smile...A BIG BIG smile!
On the next day, Saturday, no classes, Apolinaria went to the Mall, the one that she owns. She went there to buy (I mean get something) on her Auntie's Boutique…a very SPECIAL kind of boutique.
"Good Afternoon Aunt Dolores!" Apolinaria politely greeted
"Well Good afternoon to you beautiful!"
"WHAT???? Did you just called me beautiful?"
"Well Yes!"
"Auntie!! I'm not beautiful, I'm ugly! You see?"
"Well you're not darli-"
"Tell me that I'm ugly! Or else I will tell mom to close your shop!"
"O-Ok!, Good morning ugly?"
"Better!"
As I've said earlier, Apolinaria is rich, her money makes her powerful, even to her Aunties that are way older than her.
"So, what do you want Apolinaria?"
"Well, I want you to open your secret cabinet, where you have kept some of your SPECIAL potions for years!"
"But-"
"No Buts!"
"O-Ok!"
As Aunt Dolores carefully opens the doors of her secret cabinets, Apolinaria can smell the odor of revenge!
"So Apolinaria, what kind of potion do you want? A potion that will make you beautiful? Or the potion that will make your classmates to have a crush on you?"
"None of the Above Auntie! I want the potion that will make my classmates uglier than me!"
"Oh you stubborn kid! That's bad! Please don't do that!"
"I'll kill you without touching!" Apolinaria shouted impolitely at her Aunt.
Again, Aunt Dolores has forcefully gave what her hard-headed nephew wants…
Monday: before the class starts…
'Hey Teodora, lets get out of this room.. We'll go into the place where I will start doing my revenge!" Apolinaria whispered.
"Ok friend!"
While walking on the corridors, Apolinaria saw the cafeteria's chef, unlocking the doors of the canteen. Apolinaria and Teodora immediately get close to the chef and put a handkerchief, filled with a sleeping potion, on to her nose. The chef suddenly fell down to sleep.
"Teodora, carry this big elephant into the comfort room. Make sure that nobody sees you! Hide her in one of the cubicles." Apolinaria murmured.
"Certainly." Teodora said.
Apolinaria entered the canteen, tip- toeing. Set up the cooking materials and the stove. She instantly cooked a very delicious dish her mom has taught her. And mixed it with some of her Aunt's potions.
