b. Listen to a story in Audio 5.2

“Have you heard of makeup?”

I threw her a glance. She came to me in the morning, waiting for the class to begin.

“You’d look prettier with makeup on.” She looked at me intently; her eyes were scanning every inch of my face. Every dent, every scratch, every line. Every flaw.

Suddenly, all the words I had made friends with throughout my life vanished. I didn’t say anything to her for a solid minute, I didn’t know what to say.

“Yeah, I know,” I finally managed.

She turned away to do her work, humming a song that was overplayed by the radio. Apparently not aware of how much her words had hurt me.

Dear girl who I sat next to for one music class. Maybe someday I’ll carefully conceal my dents, my scratches, my lines.

Maybe someday I’ll “prettify” my face. Maybe someday, but for now, I’ll learn how to embrace every imperfection, law, and part of me that needs to be painted away. Maybe someday.
