" I can never marry someone else. Not her at least!" Two weeks after my twin sister's passing, to keep the relationship between two families, my parents proposed the idea of marrying me off to my twin sister's husband. But, both of the family know, I DON'T suit their taste of having a daughter-in-law in a family like them where my sister was a perfect match for everything. But... He got married for the sake of the relationship between two families. " Don't ever think of getting close to me. I will make sure we both go different ways soon. In this world, only one person lives in my heart. She will be there forever!" I thought it was acceptable. He married someone ugly like me is enough to get satisfied for me. However, not only did I walk onto the thin and sharp layer of ice, but also I had to face the Cruelty of rich and beautiful people... My in-laws hate me too.
" Dear God! All I just want is to have a beautiful family with my dearest fiance. I wish nothing more!"
I heard my sister praying while her makeup artist and hairdresser were giving her the best look for her engagement party. Today is her engagement party and one week later, she will be wedded to her Fiancé.
Odette Anderson is my twin sister's name. A gorgeous 25-year-old girl who is well-liked by everyone. Her beauty to her personality, everything is as perfect as a rainbow after the rain. Her eyes are the ocean of summer, radiant blue and calm like spring. The blonde hair she got from my mother, adds the last card of her ethereal beauty.
Today, she is going to engage with her boyfriend, the son of our parents' best friend, a billionaire and obviously, a person with a great personality.
This is the second time I am going to meet him. He is handsome, cool and really easygoing. Not with me or anyone else. To my sister, of course. They're a perfect couple as if they're only made for each other.
" Juliette! Why didn't you change yet? How many times have I told you not to make us ashamed? Did you forget how much humiliation we received on that day?"
I startle when my mother snaps at me.
This is true. I humiliated them with my stupid look. I am not as beautiful as my twin sister. I am 25 years old. But people sometimes think that I am a 40-year-old woman. I weigh 210 pounds, Got a messy curly hair, dull brown hair not as eye-catching as my family's, and my eyes are brown, inherited from someone from my father's side. I actually don't have any idea who it is. lol.
But we both have the same face except for those eyes, hair and obviously the weight. My sister is like a female lead out of the magazine, whereas I am some stupid, lazy and ugly side character of the novel. No, I don't think even an artist would like to draw such an ugly character in their art.
" Stop dozing off! Juliette! Get changed. Don't break your new dress's zipper again. Gosh! Where can I go with this girl?"
As I yawn, My mother grunts throwing the dress on me that she bought for me. " Stop lazing around!!!"
" I won't, okay?" I curled my lip while rolling my eyes, what to do if I always feel so sleepy... Gosh!
" You will, Juliette. Don't be so confident. Just don't go to the front line when our engagement party starts. I don't want to be embarrassed!" Odette scoffs. As usual, her words feel like daggers being stabbed into my heart to bleed.
" Why? I am your sister. Also, I returned home to attend your engagement party. Can't you just be a little soft to your own Sister?" I asked. It's hurting my ego.
" C'mon! This is the main point. Did you look at yourself? I don't think your face resembles any human face. It's a pig face. Moreover, all of my friends don't like to stand with you. You will ruin their mood!"
" Odette!!! You are being too much!" I hiss. She is literally ignoring my feelings.
" Also, what if you fall and break the stage like you broke your chair! I don't want another shameful commotion on my important day!"
" I didn't break my chair, for god sake!!!"
" I don't care. I just want you to stay away from my party. Don't stand when my friends or fiance come. I don't want to feel humiliated..."
How could she! I travelled back home from another state, just to attend the engagement. How could she be so heartless with her own sister?
" Mom! Can't you tell something to her? How could she treat her sister like trash?"
" You are trash! Juliette." Odette laughs loudly, even the people who are in the room laugh at me like I am nothing.
" Mom! Your daughter is being too much now." I called Mom, trying to hold myself back but what breaks my heart more when my mother responds...
" Why are you so eager to stand in the front line? You will fall or trip over anytime. It will ruin Odette's image. Don't need to go front line." My mother adds, giving everyone another chance to laugh at me.
" Oh!" I smile forcefully. It somehow hurts.
" Anyway, Change the dress. If you don't fit in it. Don't come to the party! I don't have time to bring another one for you!-"
" Mom!!!!' I screamed.
" Just directly tell me that you don't want to attend the engagement party. I know I am going to humiliate you. Because I am not as beautiful as Odette is. I know, fine. I won't attend."
Tears stream down my face as I can't engulf the pain that they're causing, just using their words.
"Who told you not to come? Stop overacting! Also, stop crying all the time. It's disgusting!!!" Odette snorts, rolling her eyes.
" You two are so mean. Always been a mean to me!"
I storm out of the room while crying. This is nothing new but still, it's my sister's special day, who was born on the same day as mine, we grew up together.
" Why are they so bad to me? Why? I am ugly, I didn't make myself - Ouch!"
My hand immediately reaches to my forehead when I bump into someone. But I couldn't raise my head, the tears had no plans to stop. My heart keeps squeezing to bleed...
" Are you okay?"
I look up, my tears have messed up the light makeup, my sister's makeup artist put on me secretly.
The person with a soft voice whispers nearby me, is my sister's Fiancé. He always holds a cold and Unapproachable Aura. But I saw him smiling or making jokes with my sister.
How nice to have someone who loves you unconditionally. And my sister got everything you can only imagine to have. Parents' love, talent, beauty and a partner who will kill anyone for her. Isn't it nice?
" I am... I am fine. Thank you!"
I walk by him. Right now,
" Who is she? She was crying!" My sister's Fiancé asked his assistant.
Huh! My attention goes to him, whose eyes are admiring my sister...
As expected, ugly people, don't have the right to be remembered. It was last week when he visited my sister and we bumped into each other and shared greetings. Today, he doesn't even know who I am.
It always happens. Since the very beginning of my life, Although I wasn't chubby I was dull enough not to be noticed by anyone. My sister's appearance was enough to keep me in the shadows.
Even when I was born. Everyone was busy admiring how beautiful my sister was, and I was crying alone in the cradle. Sometimes, My grandma, a snowy white snow, English woman, tells me jokes about how ugly I was when I was born. First, they thought I wasn't my father's child. But because of the resemblance between me and my sister, they didn't do anything like a DNA test or something.
And this is how, Since childhood, my family indirectly taught me that there is rank in everything. Even if it's within the family or the society. The more beautiful and talented you are, the more you'll get valued.
And, what should I debate about it? In my 25 years old life, nobody told me that they liked me or had a love at first sight... Crazy! Have you ever seen anyone getting a love at first sight on an ugly girl?
Even their smile looks like a joke.
" Angel! My beautiful angel! Why are you leaving?"I stop, hearing the familiar voice.
"Dad???"
My father, the only person in my life who never talked to me rudely, walks towards me.
But...
If there is a chance to choose someone between me and my sister. My father will save my sister without any second thoughts.
" Why are you crying? Are you hungry? I bought so much chocolate for you. Go home and have some chocolate."
" So that I don't attend the party?" I ask, knowing that he will accept my mother's decision.
" N... No. Why. Why would you have to... I mean, my angel doesn't like crowds. Won't it be a good decision not to attend the party?"
" Dad!!!!" I grit.
" I am her sister. Twin sister who grew up with her. I.. I wanted to - Never mind... I will do what you think is good for you all. After all, it doesn't matter if someone like me doesn't stand next to you. Please have another family photo without me this time too..."
" Angel!!!"
" I am not your angel. Don't mock me with your words, Dad. I hate you all. I am not your family!!!"
Everyone is hurting me. They're so selfish. On our graduation day, My parents got a family photo together and I wasn't there. They were so busy with my sister's achievement that they didn't even feel the empty spot which belonged to me. So even if I disappear from their lives, they won't be sad or miss me. I know that very well.
If you stand before the huge family photo of our family, you can clearly see, how different we are. My mother and father both were holding my sister's hand while I was standing like an outcast next to my grandparents who were also smiling at my sister.
And the more time pass, the more I have realized, I am just a worthless wallflower in the middle of our family circle.
