I felt bad about screaming that afternoon. It was now nighttime. I was now talking with Jessica at our secret place. The place when we first met. The place we always hang out. It was the fountain in the middle of the labyrinth at one side of the school. I always wonder why no one ever went there except Jessica and I. We both knew our way through the maze, so we never got lost.
"Still feeling bad about just now huh?" Jessica spoke out first, breaking the silence between us. I just nodded, not looking up. The waters of the fountain suddenly got my attention. It somehow seemed to be interesting, to me anyway. I stared at the water, running my fingers through it. My reflection changed into something familiar. It changed into a figure. Bit by bit it turned into a face. Darling. I gasped and fell.
"You know, God chose them that way. Some people aren't meant to be normal like us. They have their own special ways. It doesn't matter if they're beautiful in the outside. What matters is that they're all beautiful in the inside. Anyway, no one is perfect," Jessica giggled and helped me stand on my feet. I just sighed and smiled weakly.
"Yea...you're right," We laughed and walked back to our school. I walked Jessica to her own room. Upon reaching there, she gave me a goodnight kiss. After that, I walked back to my room. In case you're wondering, this was a private school. A boarding school to be exact.
"No one is perfect," those words echoed in my mind as I tried to shrug it off. Perfection had been my goal and it seemed impossible to achieve it. Maybe perfection was not the perfect goal for me. Maybe...it was not meant to be a goal to achieve...for anyone...
