Word count: 160
Becky has always loved marbles. After all, they were so interesting – they came in every color, with different patterns, in variable sizes. Some of them were dull, others brilliantly gleaming or totally transparent. And there were some many games one could play with them, from simply rolling them in one's hand to rolling them on the floor, competing with friends. Not that she had many friends.
That's why she first joined the Cheerios! – she wanted to make friends. And when she did get into the school's most elite group, she brought her favorite marbles to her first training, hoping that after it, the girls would play with her, but all her got were strange and icy glares. Even Coach Sylvester looked at her like she wanted to skin her alive.
After this Becky blamed the stupid marbles – and doesn't matter how much she loved them, she threw all of them to the thrash bin as she was leaving the school.
