Prompt: Will We Be Happy in a Perfect World

I do not know whether my choice is correct and sensible or not. Now, I own many things that girls want job, money, good reputation and the prettiest appearance of the world. Anything in my life is admired by others. However, I want to choose to commit suicide at my best time of my life.

I am standing on the top of my apartment at the most flourishing place of Manhattan, and I look down at the world. The roads are filled with different kinds of hydrogen cars, the sky are became a big screen of different advertisements. Anything is filled with high technology. Science is so developed that they can change genes before babies are born. Parents all have the right to change baby's genes but they must use some genes they want to displace some original genes. If parents choose it, the genetic company will keep secret to them. I am a product of this kind of genetic engineering and are called "gene child".

Fifty years ago, my mother was born. At that time, science was not as developed as now, so she is a god child. Unfortunately, her face was different from other there is a big birthmark covered her face. She had no friend and every child called her "evil" but she was the cleverest girl in her class. Every teacher loved her. Finally, she got into the best university with her excellent record and fell in love with and married my father but she said "I choose to have a gene child with the most beautiful face in the world". My father understood her and agreed with her. So they decided to use my love gene to instead of my beautiful gene and I was born.

Since I can remember, my mother is always pound of my face, clever, and shows me to people who jeered at her in her childhood. When I was 18 years old, she took me to attend beauty contest of the world. I won the contest and became the World Girl. After contest, I attended different kinds of fashion shows and made friends with stars and fashion designers. I could own anything I want and other girls admired me. However I was not happy because I did not have feelings to others and I never fall in love with anyone. I even find I did not have love to my parents. During a holiday, I go back home and chatted with my parents and asked them why I felt nothing to anyone even them and why I found my life hollow. They lowed her head and said nothing for a long time. I know they must conceal some secrets about me, I asked again. My mother looks at me distressed and said "Since you know something, please forgive us", then I know things about me and my mother. I was absent-minded for a long time and I did not know what I should say. I look at them coldly and said calmly “Why are you treating me like this. I do not acknowledge that you are my parents and you have no right to choose my life. They cried and beg me for forgiveness. I did not look at them and left home.

Now, I am standing the top of my apartment, cold wind makes me come round. This world is heartless for me and I have nothing to this world. I know what choice as good for me. I stand on tiptoe and fall down, wind around me...
