There is one girl in every class, in every group, in every society who stands out from the rest. I am not speaking of the exquisite beauties or the greatest hosts; not to the drama queen or the promiscuous slut.
No, I am referring; with great irritation I may add, to that one girl who is pleasant, sweet and caring. She always means well and she’s relatively humorous. She seems pretty normal but when she speaks, and I suppose it is not her fault, her voice grates on your soul; it leaves your ears shrieking in absolute pain!
There can be no greater irritation than someone with a horrible speaking habit. It could be due to her accent, or her speech impediment, or her slang or anything.
The thing is, most of the time, you won’t even realize. You won’t realize that it irritates you. You will not even hear it…
Until that fateful day in which someone, some slightly removed scum, decides to point it out to you!
Your bubble is burst and from that moment on your friendship will always be slightly tarnished as you desperately try not to notice it, feeling that all too familiar feeling of the hairs on the back of your neck standing up.
It is in these moments that you realize how important a person is to you. Or anything for that matter…
“If it is important to you, you will find a way. If not, you’ll find an excuse.”
