do you think i did too much? @2nduke
dear diary, sometimes i look at heather duke and wonder if that would have been me if my pride wasnāt so high. would i grovel and parrot every word coming from heather chandlerās mouth instead of just quietly offering my services. does that make me any better if our intentions are near identical ?
veronica thought everything heather duke was a little much. from her rapid nodding at everything their queen bee even muttered under her breathe to the simple way sheād hurry to always be literally at her right hand. but she never voiced her thoughts because veronica knew her place. even with the murky hierarchy between the heathers, she knew that not sharing the popular name put her at the bottom of the food chain. she was their prey and the only way to survive the jungle of a social ladder was to play nice. or as nice as a veronica could. ā youāre so hard on yourself, heather. ā she started, not confirming or denying the others doubts. ā iāll bet you she didnāt even notice. ā she doesnāt mention that thatās because heather chandler never noticed the rest of them.
ā but you might want to lay off the flattery just a little. we all know heatherās patience is as thin as ice. ā she bent her head closer and whispered the last words conspiratorially as if they were friends. as if the heathers would ever really see her as anything but disposable. with a grin she straightened up and knocked the other gently with her shoulder. ā lighten up ! wanna come with me to grab some corn nuts for heather ? ā
