Ugly+Duck



Once upon a time, there was a girl called Anne. She did not have an outstanding appearance since she was born. Because of that, the classmates often teased her. Besides, she also did not have any talent and was not good at anything. Her parents were shocked that they had this kind of child. Even though they felt a great shame, they were still kind to her as before as a result of her consideration.

Anne, she was a featureless and nameless girl. She had neither a beautiful face nor a slender body. When she was in school, the classmates always bullied her. Nevertheless, she had never blamed her classmates. She felt that it was a way to increase the friendship between her classmates and her. Moreover, her parents both had the appearance like the super star.When people passed by, they would stare at them. About their daughter, they confused by her appearance all the time and they often thought about why their daughter did not like them. Even if they sometimes had a great shame when they took her to go out, they still took care of her. They thought that she was not good at everything but she had a good temperature and was considerate to everybody. They felt it was enough.

In the school, Anne had an only good friend, called John. He was also a featureless boy but he was more vivid and optimistic than Anne. Anne often chatted with John in the free time, she shared her mood with him and told about why she was unhappy. When Anne was bullied by other people or got the trouble, he always appeared and saved her. Because John was the best friend of her, she told to him that she likes a boy in the class, whose name is Ben.

Ben had a deep outline face and he was gentle and talented. No girls did not like him, he was an idol in the school. Every time Ben passed by Anne, she had a chance to talk to him but she did not have the courage due to her appearance. She was not enough self-confident. After missing an opportunity, she was in great disappointment and did not talk to anybody all day long. As her best friend, John showed sympathy for Anne and thought many ideas and found a lot of ways to change Anne. He wanted to change not only the appearance but also the attitude.
