Poor Girl Has Nothing to Wear to a Party, in Order to Help, Granny Gives Her a Note — Story of the Day

When Olivia was upset that she didn’t have anything to wear, her grandmother handed her a note and said, “You should go to the address that’s mentioned in this letter, honey. I know we didn’t want to do it, but the time has come…” Olivia had no idea that the note she received would change her life forever.

“So what are you planning on wearing, Olivia? You’re coming for the party, right?” asked Anna, Olivia’s classmate and the school bully who often looked down on kids who weren’t as rich as her.

“That’s none of your business, Anna,” Olivia stated emphatically as she prepared to leave, but Anna stood in her way.

“Wait, are you embarrassed that you won’t be able to afford expensive gowns like us? If that’s the case, don’t be concerned; I have an old dress. I was going to give it to my maid’s daughter, but I think you’d be better off with it.”

Olivia took a step forward and fixed her gaze on Anna. “Why don’t you just wear it yourself, Anna? I think that dress best defines you. After all, look at yourself. You don’t have anything better to do in life than mock others and make fun of them. The same attitude as always, just like the old dress. Anyway, I will see you at the party tomorrow. Let’s see what a scumbag like you wears!”

“How dare you talk to me like that?” Anna screamed at her. “I’ll show you what defines you the best!” She pushed Olivia to the ground, and all their other classmates started laughing.

It wasn’t a new thing for Olivia. The city school where she studied was considered prestigious. Most students came from wealthy families, and only ten students were accepted each year based on a scholarship. Olivia belonged to the latter set of students.

Furthermore, the school had two camps: “Goldbearers” and “Picked.” The first category boasted about their wealth and expensive outfits, while the second was looked down upon by the first because they did not come from wealthy families.

Unfortunately, Olivia was part of neither of the groups because she was always on her own. She was studious and wanted to support her family financially. The other students at school frequently tried to humiliate her, but no matter how hard they tried to drag her, it did not affect her—until today when she actually took the insult to heart and ended up claiming she’d come to the party.
