1. The lady whit star eyes

My name is Lovely Dust, I am a young filly whit a normal life that I don't consider interesting. I am a yellow unicorn with pink eyes and purple hair that I decor whit a ribbon just to don’t feel disheveled, even with it I don’t feel like a pretty filly, and I really don’t care too much about that.

At school I’m not to good, I am very distracted whit every single teacher but, I never have any bad grades. About friendship, I am not the popular pony in my school but someponies describes me as sociable, I like to make friends and be whit them because I don’t like to feel alone at any moment, my best friend is named Sweet Cake, I feel like if I ever had a problem I can immediately talk about it whit her. All my friends think that my life its normal and happy with my family, sorry, my mom. Actually she is the only familiar I have, not even a brother or a sister, she is not to bad but I wish she could pay me more attention or even hear me when I talk about school or friends. It is like if I live alone in my house.

She has been like this since she and my father separated, I can’t believe he don't even said me ‘’Goodbye’’. He just left home with a serious face, I was so doubtful, I used to think he likes me, like if he enjoys being with me, I feel like if I wasn’t very important for my own father, and now not even for my own mother. There has not been any harder moment in my life , I soon realized that I am not important.
After this, I ran to the most pacific place where I always can relax, the park. It was raining and I don’t even had an umbruella but I don’t care anyway. I was covering my eyes while crying when I hear steps and look back, there was a lady with a black cape that stand out her white color, she don’t noticed me because I was hiding at the back of a bank just watching, she was holding a bag with apples like if she had returned from the Sweet Apple Acres, while she was walking she suddenly stops infront of a bank at her side and said loking down the bank: ‘’Are you okay darling?’’ There was a young colt with brown color and blue mane, he yelled ‘’YES! GO AWAY!’’ The lady said: ‘’Are you sure?’’ he repeated louder: ‘’GO AWAY NOW!’’ The lady don’t give up and said: ‘’ Anything I can do to help you?’’ and the colt stood up and yelled: ‘’GO AWAY! Don’t you understand?! I don’t need your help! I don’t need anypony’s help… I don’t… need it.’’ In the las 4 words he changed his tone whit a low one. The lady said: ‘’its okay everypony has bad days’’. She took out her cape and put it on the colt revealing her beautiful and stylish purple mane and also a beautiful large pretty tail that was getting wet by the rain. The colt gets surprised by this mares appearance and said: ‘’This is really don’t necessary you are going to get wet and sick.’’ The white lady looked at the colt deep in his eyes and said: ‘’There’s nothing like helping, you must be hungry right?.’’ She took one of her apples in the bag and gave it to him. He looked down and said: ‘’I can’t accept this after being so mean to you, not only you but my family, this is what I’m here, please don’t give me anything I don’t deserve.’’ The lady huged him and said: ‘’Shhh… everypony deserves help in their saddest moments.’’ The colt could not contain at this words and started crying at her shoulder and said: ‘’Thanks a lot, even if we don’t know each other your generosity makes feel fine and safety. I promise whit my life one day I will pay you back the favor.’’ The lady smiled at him, and even if she was wet she still looks beautiful, her generosity makes her eyes sparkled. I promise, the moon where not the one shinig that night.

2. I meet the lady

A few months after that, I learned that she was a designer and has a boutique but I never visited because I was very shy and don't even had an excuse to visit her. I found out that was one of my friends sister, Sweetie belle (how lucky). Just when I noticed it I inmediately talked whit her ''YOUR... YOUR SISTER IS...?'' She interrupted me and said: ''Rarity?'' and I responded: ''The pony whit purple mane and beatiful eyes...!'' And then she said ''Yes.. why?'' I explained her that she was my hole life idol and that I want to know her and bla bla bla, I think she gets bored whit my speech and said ''Okay, okay... Do you want to visit Rarity whit me? I'm staying in her house all this week'' I get shocked and yelled ''YES YES YES!!'' everypony looked at me weird but then I whispered to Sweetie Belle ''After school ok?'' She accepted.
All the way to Rarity's house I talked about Sweetie Belle of how anxious I was to know my idol, I guess she considered me a crazy pony but I don't care, as long as I meet Rarity I am ok. When we were at the door of the boutique I was nervous, and Sweetie said ''Calm down, she is a normal pony after all.'' When the doors opened, my eyes can't believed the beautiful decoration she had, also she had dresses THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS of beautiful dresses, I heared her voice saying ''Sweetie Belle are you there?'' she answered ''Yes, I bring a friend'' and Rarity said ''That's splendid come to the kitchen so you can have a meal''. She looked at me and said ''You must be Sweetie's new friend, I had never seen you before, I'm glad Sweetie makes new friends.'' I get a little paralyzed and said ''I... I... I... am Lovely Dust'' she offered me the meal and had a sit. I was nervous about making bad appereance so I acted like the most educated filly in Equestria, or at least I was trying.
Sweetie Belle told me ''So... who are you gonna interview for the school project?'' I get confused about this and then she winked me, and I realized that she was trying to make me have an excuse to be whit Rarity. So I said:''Well I think it would be interesting to interview a pony who like to design or create things'' Sweetie Belle said ''Then I think you should talk about my sister, I mean she is a designer after all'' I smiled at Rarity and said: ''Can I?'' and she tolds me it was okay. OH SWEET CELESTIA!
I made her the interview the next day in Rarity's Boutique, WOW! I don't even know what question can I ask, I was waiting for this my whole life, I sat on her sofa and she said ''You can start darling.'' My first question was ''What is your hobby?'' She answers ''Obviously, make dresses'' I said ''Silly question, how much time do you spend working?'' She answered ''I really dont have an exact time but I make or design at least one dress each 2 days'' I started getting nervous about the questions, I was wondering if they were good enough. She said ''Are you okay can I offer you something?'' ''Maybe water, plese.'' I drank my whole glass quickly, and get more confident. ''What is the best dress you have made in all your life?'' She point at a picture and said ''That wedding dress is one that I'll never foget and also the first one I've ever made'' Afer a bunch of questions and a long talk, 3 hours passed already and it was already time for dinner. So I left the boutique whit a big smile, I wish I could tell my mother about this but I guess she will never care, Anyway I slept whit a big smile on my face.

3. Changing

The next day I visited the boutique to find a new bow, Rarity advised me one so try it and loved it, but when I looked at the mirror and saw how little I looked like her I feel a little sad. I pay for the bow and in my way back home I felt desires to be just as amazing and pretty as Rarity so when I came to my house I try a new hair style, I try a curly hair whit the old hair crimper of my mom, since she don't care much about appeareances, she leave it in a drawer of her room.
It was the first time I use one of these things, it looks harder than it seems, so when I finish, I feel so confident that my hair looks simply perfect, and decided to use a little make up too, I mean Rarity use a little make up. I decided don't look at the mirror until I was finished, when I was curling my eyelashes, my mom yells: ''Lovely Dust! Go to the market and buy milk!''. I knew that was the perfect opportunity to show off my new style and surprise everypony.
When I left my house everypony was looking at me very extrange, I thought it was for my new and lovely style, but suddenly I hear someponies laughing back at me ''Hahaha! what kind of clow she is?'' I turned back and they laughed even harder, I ignored them and keep walking, but I was still hearing many laughs, ''They're laughing bacause of.... me?'' I looked my reflection in a window... My hair looks horrible, my face weird, I was looking truly like a clown. And gets even worse when I heared even more laughs, I ran as fast as I can and strumbled whit Rarity, I feel so stupid when my whole life idol saw me like a clown, I cover my face but don't works. She said ''Lovely Dust? Is that you?'' I started crying and said ''Yes! its really embarasing that a pony as beautiful as you see me like this, PLEASE JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!'' She said ''Anything I can do to help you?'' I yelled ''Leave me alone now!'' She puts her hoof on my shoulder and said ''It's okay, everypony has bad days'' I swear I had seen this before... I started crying even harder and said ''Oh Rarity! I was just traying to be like you'' Rarity said ''Like me?'' I said ''Yes, you are so perfect and pretty and fabulous, you are the pony that everypony wants to be''
She looked at me and said, ''Can I fix that mane?'' I said yes.
We went to Carousel Boutique, and start washing my mane and also my face, I ask ''After this I will look as fabulous as you?'' She sweared that I was going to look even better. After 30 minutes she said ''Okay you are done, take a look in the mirror and judge by yourself'' I looked at the mirror and... actually there was not a change of how I looked everyday. ''I... I don't understand'' She looked at me and said ''This is you, there's nothing prettier than looking how you truly are. I mean the make up isn't bad, but is all about yourself feeling comfortable, you are just a little filly, you don't need to depend on cosmetics and lipsticks to surprise everypony. Also, you had never looked better than today.'' After this I cried again, but this time I cried of happiness, and hug her, she was absolutely the most generous poyn I had ever meet, she teached me that the only way to be perfect is being ourselves.
