Maybe it's Maybelline. Everything started during lunch in my freshman year of high school. I noticed this new senior transfer, Zara, I think, getting cornered by a group of meme girls. Wait, I heard you're 18 and still in ninth grade. Did you like fail on purpose? She's probably just paying rent until she's a grandma. I walked over, chased them off, and was about to comfort her when. Who asked you, huh? I'm not some charity case for you to pity, okay? Uh, I was just trying to be nice. Hi, I'm Talia from Tennessee, and from the day I accidentally played Hero, Zara made it her full-time job to turn my life into a horror movie. She hid my homework right before I had to turn it in, mocked my voice in front of everyone, and even tripped me in the hallway.
By dismissal, she was bored enough to follow me all the way to the school gate.
New friend, sweetheart?
Friend? Please. That girl follows me around all day just to start drama. She's driving me insane. Dad, you have to call the school.
Aw, honey, it's just girl drama. She's probably just pressed because your jawline is like the golden ratio. You'll be fine.
There he went again! To dad, every problem somehow came back to looks.
Why does Talia feel abandoned after her mother’s death and her dad’s obsession with a perfect partner?
And in moments like that, I really, really wished I had a mom. She would have understood. My mom passed away when I was tiny. My dad's a plastic surgeon who's basically obsessed with finding a flawless woman to be my stepmom. The result? I've been riding solo for 15 years, just craving a real mother figure. Fast forward to Mother's Day at school. Everyone's bragging about gifts and I'm just in a corner hyper-focusing on a card for my dad. What's this? Dear Dad. Wait, why are you making a Mother's Day card for your dad? Do you not have a mom or something? Don't tell me. Your dad likes wearing dresses at home. Give it back! Don't turn my family into your joke. I said no. I let out this full-on growl and lunged at her.
We both crashed onto the floor. I grabbed her hair. Zara scratched me back. Desks and chairs clattered everywhere. Students were screaming and filming. Stop it right now! Talia! Sora! Principal Reyes rushed in, pulled us apart, and dragged us straight to her office. After we explained everything, she realized Zara had provoked me first. And do you know that feeling when an adult actually steps in and protects you? It felt insanely warm.
What triggered the violent showdown between Talia and Zara at school?
On my way out, I saw Zara's dad storming in.
What did you do this time? Failing a grade wasn't embarrassing enough. Now you're fighting two?
Honestly, hearing that was such a vibe. Zara basically vanished after that and my life finally hit a reset. I even found my dream mom in Principal Reyes. She was sophisticated, warm, and totally understood me. Perfect match, right? And just like that, suddenly I'm 18. But my mission to ship my dad and Principal Reyes was a total fail. Lately, he'd been acting so sketchy, jumping every time his phone went. and running to the balcony to talk. Then came graduation. My friends were all celebrating with family, and I'm just waiting. Dad was nowhere. Maybe he had another emergency surgery. Dad was busy, I'm an adult. I can handle this. Right? Happy graduation, Talia. You did amazing. Thank you, Principal Reyes. I tried to act fine, but I was gutted.
That night I went out to party, mostly to forget how sad I felt. Hey, Talia, OMG, is that your dad? My heart felt like someone squeezed it. So this whole time, Dad had been secretly dating someone? And he missed his only daughter's graduation for that? Wow, that emergency surgery looks real exhausting, Dad.
How did Talia discover her dad’s secret relationship and the wedding plans?
Dad flinched and started scrambling to explain. Then the girl turned around. Long time no see, Talia. Remember me? My brain basically exploded. All those memories of being bullied at 15 came rushing back like a horror movie.
