Never judge a book by its cover. Stelle is living proof of that statement. You see it all the time, when walking around school with Stelle. All your fellow students, boys and girls alike, would always squeal when they see Stelle, gushing at how cool, calm, collected she always is, and how she exudes a aura of confidence and grace.

You just don’t get it

Whenever people aren’t around, or you two are hanging out, she never behaves like how people say. Its like she flips a switch, and becomes a loud, clingy, sometimes even bratty, girl, always on her phone or complaining. She isn’t cool, confident, or any of that. You just don’t understand what people see in her.

Today, you are waiting for Stelle outside her door, so you two could walk to school together, like always. And as usual, you can hear her inside her house, scrambling around, her mom yelling at her to hurry up, and her whining back.
