U R Cute

Your POV
I hate the family I was born in since I born ugly all because of a curse that has been in my family for years. It’s surprising that it’s been around for so long.
Family lore has it that once we meet the one that we are destined to be with the spell will start wearing slowly until the day that him and I would be married.
I look at myself in the mirror to see my real face not the one that everyone else, but my mother and little brother can see.
I move over so I’m staring at myself and figure that at least I can see how i really look so I can see that I’m not as ugly as people say.
My mother had told me that only the parents and siblings can see your real face.
I guess I should be happy about that because my mother and brother are the only reason that I’m alive.
My dad left us shortly after I turned 3 and my brother was born. Unlike me he was lucky not to have the family curse, but when I became ill he ran out on us.
Only one person that I met for a short time when i was a young child seemed to notice me, but I never saw him again.
All I have left of him is a small stuff animal that he had given me because I was crying.
I remember the day only a small amount.
I had ran into a girl around my age and she started to yell at me calling me mean names when a boy our age ran over and started to protect me. I remember him calling me beautiful and complimenting me when the girl had ran off. I told him it was a cruel thing to lie to people that the girl was right and he told me I wasn’t to prove me wrong on my thoughts he had won me the stuff animal and told me that I should hold onto it to remember that not everyone is like that girl.
I smile as I roll over on my bed to see the small cat stuff animal and smile slightly see that it still looks brand new since I’ve taken care of it better than myself.
I sigh as I hear my brother pound on my door.
I hate the fact that I still live at one, but when I lived in an apartment my neighbor called the cops on me several times saying that a monster was breaking into my apartment.
Sungoh’s POV
I’m supposed to go out with my friends today, but instead I’m staring at an old picture of me standing next to a beautiful girl.
I’m still worried that I’m crazy since whenever some else looks at the photo they see an ‘monster.’
I look at the stuff animal in her hands and I smile as I remember winning it for her to make her feel better.
I sigh as I leave my room to see that my roommate’s aren’t home.
We had bought this house together and we all pitch in to pay for everything.
I don't’ have to go to school today so I decide that instead I’ll go to the market to pick up some groceries since Cory forgot again.
Your POV
I sigh when my mother tells me that I need to help load stock off the truck for the market today.
I stay behind the tent afraid that I’d draw away customer’s but my mom had my wear a mask to at least for that part.
I sigh as I try to walk from the truck to the tent to fall and land on something solid.
I hope the flowers are safe.
I look up to see boy who looks familiar, but I drop it as I quickly start picking up the box with small flowers to start off some gardens.
I look up and start apologizing as I work, “I’m so sorry please don’t be mad.”
He starts laughing and smiles at me and I hope he doesn’t notice the childish bag on my bag with my stuff animal sticking out of it since I’m lucky that my mother hasn’t noticed yet.
I I hear him stop laughing then a small mumble, “How did this get here?”
I look at his hands to see that my stuff animal is in his hands which causes me to quickly snatch it back from him as I place it back in it’s safe spot in my bag.
“Where did you get that?”
I look at him and mumble, “When I was a kid a boy i knew won it for me to make me feel better.”
“Why?”
“Because I’m a hideous monster.”
He looks at me like I’m crazy as he sits down beside me on the ground and pulls me into his arms.
“You’re wrong you are beautiful,” he tells me as he leans down and kisses my forehead.
It’s been a few weeks since I met Sungoh again and we’ve become close friends and I started to leave my house more often it was odd since today I was told i looked pretty.
I still don't’ look pretty in other’s eyes yet and I wonder if i’m just crazy believing that i’m pretty.
Until I ran into Sungoh with his friends.
I had started to apologize causing him to laugh while saying, “We need to stop running into each other like this.’
I nod my head and I hear some of the guys ask, “This is the girl you were talking about she’s not that cute or good looking at all.”
I watch as Sungoh hits them and I smile at him trying to hide my tears as I walk away from them.
Sungoh’s POV
“You guys are idiots,” I yell at my friends as I run after ___, but I have no luck finding her.
I’m about to give up until I notice a small voice singing.
I follow it somehow knowing that it’s ___ and I when i see her I decide that I’m going to sneak up on her.
I get right behind her and pull her into my arms, “Hi.”
She looks back not even startled until she sees my face, “Sungoh-ah, why are you here?”
“I came for you,” I tell her.
“Why?”
“Because i care about you,” I tell her not sure if I should tell her my feelings.
“Yeah right. Go back to your friends I’m not sure why you’re wasting your time on me.”
I sigh and tell her anyways being 100% truthful to her, “It’s because I like you. I’ve liked you since we met when we were kids. You are beautiful. Truthfully I thought it was a crush from my I was a kid rising to the surface, but after being around you for the last few weeks I know it wasn’t just a crush. It was a first love and it is still love. I don’t care what other’s see when they look at you, because what I see is a beautiful goddess needing someone to remind just how perfect she is even with her small flaws. What I mean to say is I love you and I want to be with you.”
I watch as her face is sad as she looks at the ground, “Liar.”
I sigh and pull her face up so she can look me in the eyes, “I’m not lying. I love you.”
I catch her lips being careful, but I want her to feel what I feel for her.
When i finally pull away we catch our breath and end up staring into each other’s eyes.
She’s blushing as she mumbles something that I can’t make out.
“What?”
Your POV
He loves me.
he told me he’s loved me since we were kids that it was a first love and he knows that it’s love.
I try to tell him I feel the same but it’s too embarrassing since I never told anyone that in my life.
“What?” I hear him ask purely confused.
“I said I love you,” I shout at him then quickly cover my mouth.
He laughs at me leaning down and catching my mouth in another kiss.
2 Years Later 3rd Person
“Welcome back and our next guest is a author of one of the best selling books around the world. She’s the author of the book My True Look. Now please Welcome Yu ___.”
A beautiful woman of the age of 24 walks onto Ellen DeGeneres’ stage waving as she is careful in her high heels and pale blue dress.
She walks up to Ellen and shakes her hand and then they sit across from each other.
When she’s sitting she pushes back her light brown bangs smiling at all the people in the audience.
“So how does it feel to be in America to promote your book?”
____ answers in perfect English, “I’m really nervous I haven’t been away from my husband for more than 3 days and I’ve been here for a week.”
Ellen smiles her next question, “I have to tell you that I’m a fan of your book and I can see how it’s so popular. I have to ask how did you come up with this idea.”
___ smiles not sure how she should answer this, “Well I guess it is partially based off of my own life. When I was growing up until 2 years ago I was bullied by all kinds of people calling me ugly and a monster. Until I met my husband Sungoh who seemed to see in his words a beautiful goddess. After we got married 6 months ago I decided to write this book with his encouragement.”
“That’s really sweet of him. I’m not sure why people bullied you like that because from your childhood photos you looked so cute. Maybe you are like the main character in your book. Seen as an ugly beast because of a family curse.”
Carefully not to show the wince on her face the 24 year old smiled, “maybe I was, but it doesn’t really matter to me now since I’m perfectly happy.”
“You just started a campaign against bullying and a new clothing line. I have to say how does that feel?”
“It’s really nice since I’m getting such positive results from it as well. Most of the profit we make from my clothing line goes to organizations to fight against bullying and suicide. Not everyone is as lucky as I was having my mother and little brother and later on my husband, Sungoh.”
After a good 20 or so minutes of interviewing the show is about to end and the audience got free copies of Yu ___’s book and Ellen asks before it’s a cut.
“So I have to ask this are the rumors true?’
Right away Mrs. Yu knew what she was being asked and smiled placing an open hand on her stomach, “Yes, Sungoh and I had made an announcement before I left that I’m indeed pregnant.”
Awe’s are heard through the recording studio and ‘It’s a rap’ is heard shouted through the studio.
Slowly the barely than a 2 month pregnant woman goes through some small roles of being a well known author signing some of the books that had been given out and then she leaves the studio.
Standing outside to her surprise is her husband who’s leaning against a black car with tinted windows.
Soon as she sees him she rushes to him for he can sweep her off her feet as he asks, “How are my babies doing?”
“We are fine and have you figured out names that you want yet?” ____ asks her husband.
“Not yet but I’m working on it. The guys are helping as much as they can.”
“So how was the concert?”
“It was fine now let’s get you out of the heat and into the nice ool hotel.”
“Are you staying with me?”
“Why wouldn’t I?” her husband asks.
She knows she’s right and even though they’re married now she’s scared that he’ll leave her for someone more beautiful.
As if knowing what hsi wife was thinking Sungoh leans down kissing her forehead and leads her to the car.
When she’s inside she looks back to see three of Sungoh’s band members in the back.
She smiles at them and smiles.
The youngest smiles back while the other’s are still surprised that the girl that they had thought looked beyond scarey and monster looking is a beautiful swan.
Knowing what the two boys are thinking she turns back to them and smiles, “Stop acting like I’m going to turn into some hideous monster any second I already told you why I looked that way.”
Sungoh chuckles at his pregnant wife taking her hand in his own and holds it to his lips to kiss as they drive to a bright future.
