Ugly Mask, Secret Beauty — Episode 2

My Oscar-winning dad and Grammy-winning mom hated my looks, branded me an ugly "Toad," and dumped me with Grandma Maggie. 18 years later, I got into Harvard and returned home behind a mask. Dad sneered: "Hiding your hideous face?" Mom mocked that standing beside gorgeous Sienna would only humiliate me. Sienna held my hand, sighing that beauty was a curse and calling me "blessed to be ugly." My hand froze. Grandma had mailed them monthly letters with photos, raving about how stunning I grew and how boys chased me everywhere. They never opened a single envelope. They had no idea who stood before them.
