| "Ignore what the world thinks about you. You are beautiful. You just need to show it," Lily's grandmother told Lily as she played with her food. "But look at all these people in the magazine. They are skinny and beautiful. I want to be just like them too. I need to stop eating," Lily pondered. Lily's grandmother took away the magazine. "It's not the outward appearance that matters. It's in your heart. Let me tell you a story. And I want you to eat your food. Trying to get skinny when you are already skinny isn't healthy." "Okay, grandma. Go ahead with your story. And fine, I'll eat my food." "Take the road less traveled on. It's filled with riches and blessings beyond your imagination. That said, there was once upon a time ten friends. Nine friends were beautiful, and one was ugly. Outwardly. They came across a lost cow. The nine friends that were beautiful didn't want anything to do with the cow. One by one they just sneered at at and walked away. But the one friend that was ugly called the owner of the lost cow and gave directions to finding it. The owner came and took the cow, leaving the girl with lots of gold in return. He asked about her friends but she said they went on their way to a birthday party and whoever is late gets left out. So the owner of the cow said he would throw a party she wouldn't regret and she would be the star of the party. She is the one who is beautiful." "That's a wonderful story grandma. Okay, I will finish my food and show the world that I am beautiful. I will take that road less traveled on. It will be one kind of a wild ride." "That's the spirit." Lily got up from the table after finishing her food and put on a dress with abstract design. She smiled. She thought about her new journey to taking the road less traveled on. Already she was feeling better already. Then she went to peek at the stage. Many seats were filled and the next contestant was already on their way. Soon it would be her turn. She was the last one on the list to go. Her last name was Zylia. "Remember to shine," Lily's grandmother whispered into her ear. "I will," she whispered back. "Next up is Lily Zylia," the announcer called out. Lily walked across the stage in her new dress. The audience gasped. Then she did her dance, making it up as she went along due to her nervousness and forgetting the proper moves to the music. As the music ended the floor shook. She felt as nervous as ever, but yet she knew she had done something. Then, as she rose, she saw the judges had given her a perfect score. She had done it! Even if it wasn't the proper dance picked to the music, she had wowed the judges and done an excellent job. She had passed this level of competition. Her grandmother was right. Prompt: Road Less Traveled On song Word Count: 515 "House Of Black & White "      |
