The second year was the epitome of those things. This was the reason why Selina really disliked boys and the way they affected females. They had this horrible habit of making girls feel like less then they really were. The redhead knew that first hand from a rather awful experience last year with her own boyfriend. And yet, it was sadder for Selina to see Penelope like this. The girl was just so crestfallen.
Instead of hitting her upside the head, she opted for giving the girl a small squeeze since her arm was wrapped around her shoulder, "Yes you are. But it might be a little hard for you to see that right now, sweety." However, that did not mean that everything Selina said was untrue. It just meant that some stupid boy had hurt Penelope's heart and she did not want to think of herself as beautiful. Selina had a hunch why- the girl was probably thinking about why this stupid boy did not like her. She probably thought she was not good enough. The real reason was that this boy was just a blind idiot. Dumb kid. PENELOPE WAS GREAT!
Her heart? She wanted to get her heart break? At that moment, Selina's heart very well shattered for Penelope. That was one of the saddest things she had ever heard someone say in this dorm. And this dorm had been the place of many sad conversations. Just ask Kurumi.
She pet the girl's hair and sighed, "Unfortunately, it'll take time. But I promise... one day, some boy who is right for you will pick up all of the pieces and make it alright again. Of course, you don't need a boy to make this better. You are strong enough to pick up the pieces yourself. It'll just be hard." Because she did not want her little lion to think that boys were like candy. A different flavor every week. She had already failed to teach that lesson once... Penelope frowned and shook her head slightly, the strongest amount of disagreement she felt like giving at this point. It was only hard to see because it wasn't true. That was always a fact even before this happened. She just...hadn't bothered to think about it as much before now. She'd never really had a reason to. But now...
Oh. So...there wasn't any way to just "get her heart back." Figured. So she'd have to feel like this for who knew how long. "But what if there isn't a boy who is right for me?" What if no boy ever actually liked her? Then she'd just be alone forever...not that that was SO bad, of course. She was used to that. So it was probably good when Selina went on to say that she didn't need another boy to fix this for her - she could do it herself. "How do I do that though?" Or was it something she had to just wait for and nothing else?
