Usually, Toko would rather die than read, or even be seen with, the trashy teen magazine sprawled out on her dorm bed.
The glittery neon pink pages hurt her eyes;
The pretty models on the cover made her stomach twist with jealousy.
The cloyingly sweet tone made her cringe.
The concerning amount of hypocrisy in 5 lines,
And worst of all, the content. The unrealistic, hopeful, girly, ditsy, happy-go-lucky content which made her want to throw up.
‘God, who actually believes this?’ She rolled her eyes.
Toko sighed because, as much as she wished, she would never be the token shoujo protagonist of her novels.
She would never be the charming, graceful princess dressed in a ballgown. The one from a fairytale, with beauty and brains, who can make her Prince Charming fall in love with a single glance.
She didn’t just think it, she knew it. She believed it.
And as much as she thought it was true, she chose to ignore it and push it as deep as she could inside of her.
She had to read this tacky teen magazine. And learn from it. And grow from it.
For love. Toko giggled at the thought.
It was stupid, but even someone as disgusting as Toko had her own naive, girlish dreams:
The day her white knight, Byakuya, would notice her efforts.
Standing at the altar, she would look angelic, pure and virgin, and he would be his usual, dashing self and smile.
Her heart pounded fast and she smiled ear to ear, fantasies spreading like wildfire through her deluded brain.
Would their love be vanilla and sweet or love confessions in the rain?
Would her life finally stop being miserable?
A billion times happier than the last, she picked up the neon, eye-blinding sleazy magazine, silently and secretly noting down the tips. Foolproof, right?
And hence, Toko’s super secret plan to make Byakuya head over heels in love with her commenced.
