Are Lilies Always Pure?
Lilium Shlezar
Lilium sat on one of the benches near the children's playground. With her mouth a half smile, she examined what a normal childhood was like, without the stares and the pointed finger. Lilium never had a normal childhood just because of a condition of hers, one of albinism. Albinism was not so much a disease, but a condition of the skin, causing her to loose pigment in her skin and eyes. Everybody called her freak, worthless, some even dared to call her a witch! Years and years of mental assault plagued her in her sleep and everywhere she went, the still faces of those who are so afraid to even look at her burned into her mind until they blended together into a big puddle of forgetfulness and forgiveness.
Even if she did hate most people, and people hated her, she still wanted friends. Friends that could tell her that her skin wasn't too pale, or her eyes were the eyes of the devil. Lilium wanted someone to just hang out with, go see a movie with, go shopping with, and do what normal teenage girls do at her age. But due to people's selfishness and prejudice of one true skin color, Lilium was always left in the rubble of forgotten people. But in an odd sense of the word, Lilium was just so used to loneliness that she had forgotten was kindness even was. To that albino girl, there was no such thing as kindness. Even when she tried to help others, people turned their back on her, just as they had done ever since she was born.
Lilium watched the playground of children, still distracted within the thoughts of loneliness and of being a misfit. A girl was looking at her ever so oddly, like she was just a novelty for everybody to poke fun at. She could go to a freak show and everybody could think she was part of the act. Lilium mentally shrugged her shoulders. The girl probably didn't understand that she was lonely and needed a friend. The girl probably didn't understand what it felt like to just sit and sit and wait for somebody to bestow the act of friendship, or even just talk to her like the civilized human being she was.
I could go to the Hunger Games and end all of this. This pitiful excuse of a life. This horrible existence to which God had bestowed upon me. Quid? Numquam ego scio. Lilium's thoughts drifted off into Latin, a second language of hers. She loved to speak the wondrous language of forgotten people. At night when she would study and say things aloud, she would always speak in Latin. Lilium thought - in Latin, of course - about the loneliness of the tales of her mere existence.
But then suddenly, a girl walked up to her. "Aliquam et est nomen meum Lilium, would vos amo ut accumbere facerent?" Lilium thought about what she just said. Crap, she spoke Latin again. "Hi, my name is Lilium, would you like to sit down?"
