| PolygonPat's Mate Delicious Decagon |
| Delicious Decagon was no optical illusion. Perfect in weight and nature. Popular at school, helpful at home and attentive to studies. To you and me there was nothing that Delicious Decagon was not. But to Delicious Decagon it was an entirely different story. When Delicious Decagon looked into the mirror all that showed was an optical illusion of fat and thin rhomboids. Delicious Decagon thought "I have no personality and people are only friends with me because they feel sorry for me". Delicious Decagon decided "the best way of making people like me is to get rid of all these fat rhomboids. Then I will be more attractive, more perfect and people will stop criticising me", (people rarely did anyway). As you can see Delicious Decagon's major problem was low self esteem. Delicious Decagon thought "I am going fix this rhomboid problem once and for all by getting rid of all these fat rhomboids". What used to be Delicious Decagon's goal of studies and friends now became rhomboids, rhomboids, and rhomboids. Sometimes Delicious Decagon became so hungry a rhomboid snack attack into the fridge at night occurred, eating every bit of rhomboid food in sight. Disgusted at these frequent snack attacks, Delicious Decagon would sometimes do a big sickie. Eventually, Delicious Decagon's once beautiful teeth started to discolour. Delicious Decagon's hair become weak and thin. Clothes that once fitted now began to hang loosely. And the Delicious Decagon's once perfect complexion began to lose colour. Delicious Decagon now seemed to tire easily and for some one that used to have such a great nature, there was a change. Delicious Decagon became snappy and withdrawn. Delicious Decagon's friend PolygonPat had been watching Delicious Decagon for some time, and had become concerned and scared for Delicious Decagon. PolygonPat realised that if some one did not help Delicious Decagon soon, it would be too late. Help Delicious Decagon to once again look in the mirror and see the reflection of a beautiful person by adding colour and design into Delicious Decagon's life. You will find a self portrait of Delicious Decagon on the next page. Or you can just colour in the design done by the kids at PolygonPat's school |
