Kayla was a every mean person. She got D's and F's and she was the most popular girl in the whole entire school. Drew was the school's hottie and the Captain of the foot ball team. Every girl was in love with him, even Emily.

Emily thought Drew would only like her if she tried to become someone like Kayla. The next day at school Emily was a totally new person. She died her hair black, she wore short clothing and ignored her friends. She used to be an A student. Drew hated her and thought she was just becoming the wicked witch of the west.
