The Book Version of Penelope - Made by me :) (Part 1)

This is the book version of Penelope. I'm not sure if there is one but if there is I have not read it at all, I have watched the movie and wrote this in my own word. PS: THIS IS THE FIRST STORY I HAVE EVER WRITTEN SO ENJOY :D
"Penelope, Honey Wake up, A group of men will be coming in half an hour to see you!" my mother said happily.

My Life is ruined because of some stupid curse that happened to my dad and mum. My dad was supposed to marry this women called Sophie that worked in our house. But sadly his family did not agree to that, so Sophie committed suicide by jumping of a cliff. Her mum was in terrible shock so she came to our family and cursed at us with some black magic I think. She cursed that "In your family the first daughter that is born will have a pig nose, until someone comes who loves her for real the curse will break!"

So now I'm stuck with this pig nose, since I was the first girl born in my family. Ever since I turned eighteen my mother is trying to find a nice guy for me to marry. Which I have no objection too, but when it comes to the part they agree even though my mother tells them about my nose problem they still insist to see my face. When they see my face they run away like they saw something disgusting but I don't blame them because I guess that's my fate.

I got up from my bed and made my way to the restroom. I brushed my teeth and went to the bathroom. I came out fifteen minutes later. I noticed that there were some clothes left for me on the bed. My mum walked in the room.
"Penelope, I left those clothes for you to wear"
I always wondered what was the need for this I knew how the men would react when they see my face. Shocked. Disgusted. Sometimes I'd think was my mum trying to get rid of me to my married life.

"Mother, what is the use of this, we know the outcome" I asked
"I know Penelope, But there's no harm in trying right?" She replied.
"I'm going to change"
I took my clothes from the bed and walked into the restroom and changed. I realized mother choose clothes for me with the color I hate the most. Pink. Oh I couldn't be bothered to argue with my mother this morning. It was twelve forty five. I wore the clothes and looked at the mirror. I looked from bottom to top. I thought I looked awesome from the bottom up to my lips but above my lips everything else ruined.

A tear trickled down my face. I always questioned my self why I was destined for this, I've done nothing bad to anyone or anything.
"Honey, are you ready? Some men have come already can you please come out and enter the glass room" My mother yelled.
"Kay"
I washed my face quickly and dried it and got out the room. I made my way too the glass room. The glass room is a room where I can see everything but no one else can see me, the glass room is disguised with a mirror. From that room I see if I like person or not.

I walked into the room secretly and sat down onto the chair. There I could see five men, and slowly by slowly men walking in. In the end they ended up twenty one. I thought maybe only fifteen were good looking and decent, and well out of them fifteen all them ran away as soon as they saw my face. My mother tried to stop all of them but the barged through her. After everybody left my mother walked towards the mirror.
"Sorry" she said apologetically and then walked out the room shamefully.
I knew this was useless. When I was about to walk out the door a guy walked in.

"Hello?" he asked.
"Hello, what are you doing here?" I asked back confused.
"Huh? Where are you talking from? Anyway I'm here to see Penelope, Do you know where she is?"
"You will find out later were I am, and I am Penelope, By the way the time for seeing me has passed and I don't think you want to see me unless you want to die. I have a pig nose" I said confidently.
"Oh hello Penelope, My name is Edward, oh I know about the nose don't worry it can't be that bad can it now? Show me?" he said.

I thought about it, and decided he wasn't he wasn't that attractive so I should show my face. As soon as he saw my face he ran away like a baby to the police station. He described me as some vicious monster I know this because the next day it showed on the newspaper that Edward was in a mental state and showed that he saw me as this picture. I did not look like that. The picture on the newspaper was terrible. It showed I had fangs etc. For the past few days I didn't really find anyone interesting.
