One.

This girl had everything. Her parents were together, her friends were plenty, and her life was all planed out. She had a sweet smile, and a figure that made every girl jealous. Her life was perfect. On the outside. On the inside she hid secrets that would destroy everything. Secrets about her father that would break their relationship, secrets about herself that would make all her friends hate her, and secrets about her body that would make people think differently about her.

She tried so hard to keep her appearances up, going to crazy lengths to make everything look okay. Without her parents knowing, she went to a doctor's office to get help for all of her problems. Since she had just turned 18, there was nothing wrong with keeping the visit from her parents. He told her she needed to stop hurting her body, but there was nothing he could do about it unless she wanted this completely. As for her other medical problems she was asked to participate in the testing of a new medicine, which she agreed to. Her medicine came in a small bag, it contained all the supplies she would need to inject herself for a year. Since she was just a tester, she wasn't allowed to tell anyone, which was fine, she didn't want anyone to know anyway.

She took her first injection right away. Her body reacted strongly to her new treatment. She didn't see people the same way she had before, now they had an aura about them. She saw people deepest secrets spilling out of their subconscious. She didn't understand at first, but she was entering a world she would not escape from. She just let it all happen. As she began to take the doses regularly, she became addicted. In a sick way she took pleasure from seeing everyone's pain. It surprised her that all the people she thought she knew she didn't actually know at all. 

She didn't understand the side effects of the drug. While she was able to see people's deepest emotions, by spending so much time thinking about other people, the world started spending less time thinking about her. In a few more doses, she would disappear from reality completely.
