Miranda

 

Miranda is powerfully beautiful. When she stares at you, even though she is tall and square, even though she dresses terribly, you cannot help feeling a soft point in your chest. Yet no boys dare speak to her. She does have friends though and those more common-looking girls do find boyfriends. But not her. She feels quite lonely but tries not to care and studies hard. She loves thinking about uncommon things, maths questions or medieval epochs. As time goes by, she finds it harder and harder to communicate, as she spends most of her time alone. Then she starts drinking at parties and her life changes.
