Only one boy asked me to prom. Everyone laughed and said he must've been paid. Then police walked into the gym.
My classmates made fun of me all the time.
I had a large birthmark on my face. I was born with it. On top of that, I was raised by a single mother, and money was always tight. I often wore thrift-store clothes while my classmates showed off their new handbags and outfits, pointing at my old clothes and laughing.
As prom got closer, I didn't even want to go.
Then, out of nowhere, Caleb asked me to prom and said he'd be happy to spend the evening with me.
He was the popular, handsome guy everyone at school knew. The girls were crazy about him. He was one of the school's football stars.
We'd never really been friends, but he was one of the very few classmates who never laughed at me. I was shocked, but I said yes.
