                   so many unread texts ... did something happen?

                   "i'm ... attractive ..?" she couldn't see it herself. even staring in to the mirror and going over each of her features, ruby couldn't help but compare herself to the other girls she was close with. of them all ... she was perhaps the least attractive, was she not?
