Dawn crept gradually upon her shoulders, the light filtering between the cracks of the curtains that were poorly drawn the night before.
Ling was roused from her sleep, feeling tired and unhappy. The events of the night before came flashing back to her. She had been set up for a blind date by her over-bearing mum who was secretly worried that her 22 year old daughter was a lesbian.
Not
that there was anything wrong with a being a homosexual these days, but her mum was being a hypocrite. She did not mind other people being a homosexual but not her daughter.
Her mum had cause for worry though, as during the entire 22 years of Ling's life, she had not had any boyfriends or crushes that her mum knew of. Ling did not display any interest in the opposite sex and was overly careless with her appearance.
Little did her mum know, Ling was a normal 22 year old girl with normal feelings and emotions. As Ling gazed into the mirror, what she saw did little to abate how she felt about the events of last night.
Staring back was a petite Chinese girl with shoulder length black hair that was carelessly bundled into two ugly plaits. The girl was dressed in an oversized lettuce green sleeping gown which hid the unsightly fats on her body in places she did not like. She went nearer and shuddered when she saw the many pimples that spotted on her face.
No wonder Ming shuddered as well when he saw the girl that was sitting across him last night. Ming was her mum's friend, Aunty Judy's son -- who had been arranged to be her blind date last night. Ling muttered secretly to herself: Ming himself was no prize either, short and chubby, with his geeky computer spectacles. How dare he!
The date has been short at best and she had hurried into her room that night, keen to avoid questions from her mum and fell into a fitful sleep.
It has always been like this. She was no lesbian, but with the way she looked, there was no way she could attract anybody of the opposite sex to pay even a little interest in her.
What inner beauty? Who could know more about her if they did not even want to get to know her a little better?
She wished she was prettier. She envied the girl next door, who was pretty
and
thin. At the very least, she wished that all these blasted pimples will disappear off her face!
Sighing, she changed out of her sleeping gown and into an oversized sweater and short pants. Turning back to give one glance in the mirror before going downstairs for breakfast, she suddenly was shocked.
All the pimples on her face were gone!! The skin on her face was as smooth and soft as a baby's bottom. Ling was indeed shocked. What had happened? Has God finally answered her prayers?
She fell into the chair nearby in shock. Then she suddenly remembered the dream she had last night. It couldn't be...right?
She had suddenly awakened in the middle of the night and saw that the window was wide open and moonlight was pouring in. That's weird, she thought, I definitely remembered closing the windows and drawing the curtains.
