My Hair Is Unique

Hi, my name is raven and i'm from texas, please like and subscribe. When i was born, my parents were delighted with my lovely black hair she's, our little raven-haired beauty. That'S what we should call her raven. My twin sister megan was born minutes later with blonde hair. Just like dad's, no one ever believed we were twins because we did not look alike. In fact, we were complete opposites in every way. We had a farm and i loved our simple life, and i never complained today, but megan constantly threw tantrums when she didn't get. What she wanted, which was often once when i was seven mom, got me a new pair of sneakers when she saw how worn out my old ones were, but when megan saw them she went bananas. I want a pair of sneakers right now. The ones i'm wearing are ugly and useless. I told you, i needed new shoes every three weeks. Do you understand that you're such a brat megan? You have so many pairs already you're such a brat me mimi, i'm not talking to you mom. I need an answer. We just bought you a new pair last month. I knew it. You love her more than me. She threw such a fit that mom got her an expensive pair of shoes just to shut her up. Life at the farm was amazing, but we were always short of money to help. Mom picked up a job as a seamstress in the city, and she was really good watching her work was magic to my eyes and she agreed to train me too. I would finally be able to pitch in and help them get some extra money by the time i was 16. I was so good at stitching that my parents got me. My own sewing machine. Megan was so jealous. You won't get me the gucci dress i wanted, while you spoil her with expensive gifts. This is so unfair. Unlike you, i help mom and dad pay the bills so either work or stop complaining. I hate my life. I deserve pretty things one day when i'm rich and famous, i will never come back seeing mom's sad face. I felt awful. I had to do something that would make them both happy. I stayed up for two nights and made megan an exact replica of the dress. She wanted it was perfect when megan saw it, she had no clue. It was a fake, oh mom. I love you. A week later, dad announced that we were shifting to houston. We had to sell the farm because of money issues and join his brother's business. Instead, i loved my life here and i hated the idea of moving, but megan couldn't get out of there fast enough. Dad'S brother was a rich businessman who lived in a huge house with his daughter sasha. We met her on the first day at school and she seemed to be insanely popular, but, to my surprise, everyone kept looking at me on my first day. I didn't know why. Until several people came up to me and told me how pretty i was and how much they loved my black hair sasha was not happy, she came and slammed her locker shut next to mine glaring at me a word of advice. Don'T let this attention get to your head, i'm the queen bee here, uh good, to know. I have to get to class. Now i turned around and left, but a few steps later megan stopped me. What do you think you're doing? I know you think you're special, but don't get on sasha's bad side, she's my ticket to popularity, whatever meg you do you and i'll do me. That first month of school, megan became a bigger pain in the butt because of sasha megan copied everything. Sasha did and blew up at her parents when they told her. They couldn't afford her long list of demands, but things took a wild turn when a new boy dan joined her class. All the girls were obsessed with him, including megan. Apparently he was a childhood friend of sasha's, so megan begged her to hook them up sasha obviously took advantage of the situation she had megan, acting like her minion and doing stupid errands. For her one day, i saw megan running around the cafeteria, getting lunch for sasha and i just had to stop it. Megan slow down, wait. Ah, i suddenly tripped and the entire tray flew and landed on megan's head. She was covered in spaghetti. What is wrong with you raven you did this on purpose, no need to scream like a farm girl. Megan we have sensitive ears, forget about it and get yourself cleaned up. Dan will never take a chicken-smelling idiot on a date. Megan stomped off an embarrassment and i turned to sasha what is your deal? Stop treating her like she's your servant. She might not see through you, but i do really well too bad. I don't care about either of you tell megan. She can kiss dan goodbye. What a witch later that day, i told megan what sasha had said, but she didn't believe me interesting, because sasha just texted me that dan wants to ask me out at lunch tomorrow, go away liar and let me get my beauty sleep. The next morning, megan took an hour to get ready and she even bragged to everyone at lunch about it. But when the time came, dan walked right, past megan and came straight to me: um, hey raven, i'm sure you already know why i'm here! No, i don't! Oh, i thought sasha would have mentioned it. I told her. I wanted to ask out her cousin any chance you're free tomorrow. Oh no, no, i told dan i was busy, but he looked so disappointed that i agreed to do a small meetup at the library leader and when i got home, megan was furious. I'M done living under your shadow when i'm clearly better than you dan was supposed to ask me out. Not you. I had no control over that and maybe, if you were nicer, people might like you more. Oh, please, you just get handed everything. Well, i have to work so hard to get people to notice. Me then stop pretending and just be yourself for once. I happen to like that person when she's not a crazy, spoiled witch megan gasped and ran to her room sobbing. I felt so bad for what i said, but i couldn't take this anymore. I met dan the next day at the library and learned that we had one thing in common: our love of fashion, his mom owned a huge fashion house, and he knew everything there was to know about clothes. We decided to be friends, and i invited him to our birthday party. Maybe if he got to know megan he'd see how great she was. It was supposed to be a small party, but that evening the doorbell just kept ringing soon over a hundred people were crammed into her small apartment, and i overheard some girls saying that megan had invited the entire school she wore the dress, i'd made for her and Bragged to everyone about how expensive it was, but she had no idea that it was a fake omg. Do you expect me to believe that this is genuine gucci, please? I turned around to see sasha laughing at megan. Of course it is my mom bought it. For me herself, oh sweetheart, i can smell a fake gucci from a mile away and this one stinks. Sasha went on blabbering about the materials tags, everything suddenly something came over megan and she screamed she grabbed the cake and shoved it right into sasha's face. I am so sick of everyone thinking, they're better than me. Sasha stood stunned for a moment and then she attacked megan. They screamed and wrestled like crazy, while everyone stared in shock, i had to think quickly. So i grabbed the fire extinguisher and sprayed them until they stopped enough. This is not over. I hate you sasha, and i will never forgive you. Raven megan stormed off and i couldn't believe my eyes. This was a whole new level of crazy, but the next morning i forgot all of megan's drama. When i went downstairs and found out, dad was feeling really unwell. The next thing we knew we were in the hospital with doctors telling us that he had a heart condition. He was out of danger, but he still needed care for the next few weeks. I helped mom, do house chores and take care of dad while megan. Never even moved a finger like always later that week i was just getting back home after some errands when i saw megan with sasha coming out of a super, expensive store and carrying shopping bags, and they seemed as close as ever like. The fight never happened, but the next day at school i was walking down the hallway when sasha suddenly pulled me into an empty classroom. Hey what just listen to me. Okay, i'm worried about megan she's been really weird. Lately, yesterday, at the mall we almost got busted because megan stole an expensive top and threw a huge tantrum when she got caught. I had to pay for it and she's been saying some really crazy things too, and why should i believe anything you say all you've done is make things worse between me and megan. Look, i know things that may shock you like that big scar on your stomach. I know about it. I was surprised. Megan had mentioned it, it was a scar i got when i fell off my bicycle once as a kid. Okay, so megan told you about it big deal, it was a dumb accident from when i was seven. That'S not what she told me it wasn't an accident. Megan said she messed up your brakes on purpose, so you'd get hurt. I'M telling you there's something very wrong with that girl. I just pushed her aside and walked out of there, but i felt a bit sick in my stomach. Could megan really have done that? The next day dan came to visit me with some exciting news. His mom had seen a picture of the dress i'd made for megan. She loved it and wanted to meet me. She wants you to bring the dress and come for an interview at her company. I was so excited a job like this could really help us out. So i agreed immediately, i asked megan if she could give me the dress and she shot me the weirdest smirk as she fetched it from her cupboard this dress. Just then she grabbed a pair of scissors and ripped it apart. Megan no oops, i slipped. She tossed the dress aside and walked off. As i watched in horror, i called dan and begged him to buy me another day, so i could make a new dress, but he gave me an amazing idea. Why don't you just add a few things to the same dress and make it edgy? I did just that and dan's mom was stunned by my talent. She offered to take me along for the next paris fashion week. She was all set to offer me a job afterwards too, and i was on top of the world, but just a day before my flight dad felt sicker and i decided to cancel my trip - no raven, you can't miss this. You have to go i'll, be fine! Love, i'm here, don't worry. The unpaid nurse go go, live your dreams princess. I wasn't too sure about leaving my parents alone with megan, but they insisted and paris was a dream come true. I also got a chance to wear my design and people showered me with. Compliments i still had three days left in paris when one morning i got a frantic call from mom, i'm so sorry to ruin your trip raven, but we need you here. Megan ran away with all our money, and all i have is a note saying that she's chasing her dreams and never coming back. This girl had gone completely off the rails. I left for home immediately, thankfully dan's mom said i could start the job right away and we had some money coming in, so i could take care of things, especially dad's treatment, and he made a full recovery in a few months. I worked really hard and designed some brilliant outfits and within a year, dan's mom was so happy with me that she relocated us to new york to run her store and offices there. Life was good, except for the fact that we couldn't stop wondering what had happened to megan one day i was reading at a cafe and the waitress brought my order and when i looked up i was shocked to see it was megan. She looked so different. Her hair was all messy and she lost weight. She stared back at me in shock. What what are you doing here? What does it look like i work here. I know you're some big shot designer now, so please don't rub it in my face wow i see you haven't changed much. That'S all you have to say to me typical what else should i say, megan you're meeting me after so long and you don't feel a tiny bit of shame for hurting your sister for robbing our parents for breaking their hearts you're still just as awful as ever. I got up and started walking away, but suddenly she grabbed my arm and started sobbing. No, please wait. I i made a lot of mistakes and i was jealous and selfish and i'm miserable now raven. I need you, please i'll. Do anything i'll be better. I promise it has to be more than just empty words and you need to earn my trust i'll offer you a job on two conditions. You will start at the bottom and you'll work. Your way up, just like everyone else and you'll get therapy got it. Yes good, then you can start tomorrow. Now come home, mom and dad miss you.
