Marinette's Bathroom (January 19/Tuesday 5pm)

Marinette POV

'Useless'

'Worthless'

'Ugly'

'Hopeless'

'Weak'

'Puny'

Their words echoing in my head. I look at myself in the mirror to see tears, streaming down my face. I did the one thing I never thought I would do. I took my razor and put 6 identical cuts on my forearms. The pain. It feels good. I deserve it. I see blood trickling down into the sink. I quickly clean my arm and wrap it up before Tikki saw it. I put on a hoodie I stole from Adrien and tried my best to look normal. I walk out and transform heading out for a swing as Ladybug.

'Useless'

'Worthless'

'Ugly'

'Hopeless'

'Weak'

'Puny'

Constantly ringing in my head. Distracted I fall and hear one of the two voices in my head.

"Ladybug! Are you okay?" She says worriedly. Of course, she still loves Ladybug. Everyone loves Ladybug. No one loves Marinette. No one at all.

"Shut up." I mumble to Alya.

"I'm sorry what? I didn't hear you."

"I SAID SHUT UP!" Tears streaming down my face, I swing off back to my house. I calm myself down and wipe away the tears so Tikki doesn't see me like this. I detransform and head back into the bathroom.

'Everyone loves Ladybug' One cut.

'No one loves Marinette' Two cuts.

'Everyone loves Ladybug' Three cuts.

'No one loves Marinette' Four cuts. I start to silently sob. Cleansing my wounds I walk out of the bathroom it may seem like my normal cheery self, but that's not the case.

I'm sooooo sorry for making you cry. But Friday's chapter will make up for it. Kittykat out!
