Prompt: Will We Be Happy in a Perfect World?

After eating a large number of sleeping pills, I slept in my bed which was put in my empty room. I do not know when death will come, who will discover my body and where I will go. I am just so tired but the things that from my childhood now begin to appear before my eyes.

I live in a world which is close to perfection. Every thing is created by human beings such as the square building that is calculated accurately in every corner, the beautiful pictures in road which are all designed by the knowledgeable geometric figure even human beings are created by themselves by using gene order a baby. Everything is to help god to make the world become perfect.

My name is Excefect, I think my parents had a lot of expectancy to order me. I inherit superior gene from my parents, for example a long life span, good health and clear logic. I am acknowledged to be an excellent girl. When I was a child, my parents told me I would be a doctor in the future because I have superior genes and it is their dream. After graduated, I became a doctor in the best hospital in our city. My job is so boring that all I do is helping parents to order their baby. However, a turning point occurred in my life that broke the quietness. It was a usual day in my life and sat in my chair. Suddenly, two people came in to my officer. After a few minutes' talking I knew their want to order a boy who has black skin and have interest in music. I selected the best gene for the baby but when the molecules was shown on the screen I was shake at what I saw on the screen that the interesting of the baby chose wrong. That was a shameful moment in my life when I was summoned by my boss and he said: "I think you are a valid because of you gene profile but now I do not think so. You made me disappointed." I knew that is my fault but although I am a perfect, I also need a chance to breathe so I retorted: "you can not refuse to acknowledged my ability just because of this incident, everybody will make mistake even for the valid, we also have emotion."He said the words dismissively: "nobody cares about your feeling. If you are wrong, you are imperfect. It was one moment in my life that I felt the perfection is so hard and I can not afford it. Finally, I was dismissed.

I stayed at my house after leaving the hospital. I thought I would have an easy like such as time to shopping or swimming I would even fall in love a man. However, another things that I was unexpected which I was discriminated by my parents. Last night, I got a call from my mother. She asked me unimaginably: "what are you doing honey? Why are you dismissed? In my heart you are always superior. I am so ashamed when my friends told me this exciting new." I was saying nothing and then, I put off the phone. I felt my life change from colorful to block and I do not know why I must be perfect and why nobody care about my feeling? I thought I am not suitable for this perfect world, even though I am a superior. My mind needs some people's care about me.

Now I choose a way that has no gene to show one's potential. Moreover, I need not bear strong pressure what must be perfection. And I hope the baby on whom I made mistakes will hare free space to develop his potential and do what he want to.
