Perfection who?

"Mia wake up you are gonna be late to school" said the death God with a warm tone. I got up and got ready for school and went down stairs and I told every one good morning had breakfast and went out.

"what's wrong you've been sighing since the moment you got up" said the death God through telepathy.

"oh really I didn't even notice that" said I with confusion.

"listen I know that this is too much for you but you should know this, no matter what happens I'll never leave your side , don't worry we will get through all of this soon you just need to have faith in yourself and the people around you" replied the death God .

"thank you your words are exactly what I wanted to hear since the morning but listen there something that I wanted to ask you its about Mia listen I personally think that Mia is a wonderful girl although I don't really know anything about her but from what I can tell is that she isn't normal I don't really think that she is just a normal high school girl I really do feel it from inside its like there is something else in me other than my powers there is something else and I'm sure of it so please just tell me everything about Mia her story and past her thoughts and everything". said I ,

he looked at me like I stabbed him right in his heart and said "you can go on from here on your own" and disappeared into thin air.

up until now every time I say anything about Mia he dodges the conversation and even if he did tell me anything he barely gives me any details which proves that something must have happened between those two but I figured that If I want the death God to talk I definetly have to gain his trust that's why I decided that I had to step up my game because I really do want to know what happened because I'm sure that it is something that has to do with me.

I decided to start training my self to act like Mia so that the people around me wouldn't get suspicious of me so what I baisicly had to do was to be a perfect student yet be a little cold hearted I knew that this was gonna be hard but I had to do it.

I reached school and as I stepped in I was a whole new person , I was ready to be Mia and as soon as I heard Nancy's voice I panicked but I collected my self and just as she said "good morning Mia"

I put on a cold look and replied

"good morning" with a really cold calm tone

but as calm as I seemed on the outside I was very nervous from the inside . anyway last night I decided to not repeat the same mistake I did on my first day so I decided to memorize my schedule of classes and I made sure to memorize where my classes were and locker where at this point I was all set to go on with my day.

"it's been three classes already everything is fine I made sure to not smile, talk to anyone other than Nancy , but most importantly to be perfect which is really hard because I'm constantly being watched by students and teachers and its like they are just waiting me to do something "imperfect" like trip and fall or stuter while talking , but at the same time they are just standing there gossiping and admiring me

which I found really confusing and weird I could only imagine the amount of pressure that was on Mia even if being perfect was in her nature its just that her life felt... empty and boring not being able to express emotions and thoughts to others around you felt like a nightmare to me expressing thoughts and emotions is in our human nature so how was she capable of living such a life style" are the thoughts that I kept thinking about which made me curios enough to go and research "perfectionism" and " imperfectionism" in the school library and while I was in the library a book caught my attention it was called "Mr. and Mrs. Perfect" so I decided to read it throughly so I took the book and kept on reading . what really grasped my attention was how the author introduced us to two different individuals and showed us how they would act in similar situations for example let's say that person A always makes sure to be perfect while person B doesn't really care about being perfect and just being themselves. the author gave us a couple examples such as their social life from the author's perspective person A might be popular and admired but if they are having trouble with something they would have no one to help them such as a best friend because it will affect their perfect image around others and its like they have lots of friends but at the same time they have none, on the other hand person B is supposed to have a better social life than person A because they are able to express their thoughts and emotions naturally and not really care about what others would think and even if person B wasn't a social person they would still have a better chance of having a better social life than person A because they act their true self .

"so in conclusion there is no any problem in being imperfect in fact that's what makes us who we are and there is also no problem in trying to be perfect sometimes but not for others but for ourselves" is what the author wrote in the last page of the book.

The school day ended and I went home only to see the one person I didn't expect to see.
