Bertha's Valentine Bash

This Valentine's Day stinks! Bertha yelled to herself in the mirror.
"You are ugly and no one wants to give you a Valentine. Even Timmy the neighbor boy gave you a weird look when you gave him your handmade, doily backed Valentine," She said.
"Ugh! But why does he have to be so perfect? I've loved him for oh so long and all he ever does is look googely eyed at Helga down the street!"
"What does Helga have that I don't?, I guess I will just have to wear my pink retainer valentines day so he will look googely eyed at me!" " I can just see him now. He will look so cute in his overalls and his earmuffs. Oh, how I love his earmuffs. They make his eyes look even more googely. I don't know what could make me love him more...maybe if he had the courage to wear my pink, fuzzy earmuffs. As Bertha walked out the door, she knew what the day would have in store. She would get the courage to ask Timmy to be her Valentine and ask him to wear her pink, fuzzy earmuffs. Suddenly, she knew it was going to be a great day! I got to school and there he was... Oh so dreamy! The glare of the sun was reflecting off of his braces. What a HUNK! I felt for him like I have never felt for any other person. Well except my dog Duke! But still, it was love! As she arrived at school, she saw the telltale purple fuzzy earmuffs of Helga, her greatest enemy...on the head of her greatest love, Timmy! Fury welled up in her heart, and she knew vengance would be hers. "I WILL GET HER!!!" Bertha screamed in her heart. This would not be the last time they felt the fury of Bertha Barbara Baxter! She would get BOTH of them!! To be continued.....
