Hello @ubani,

There is a story by Oscar Wilde called, "The Portrait of Dorian Gray". If you haven't read it, you should. Wilde was a master story writing and brilliantly used the English language. Anyway, the story is about a young man who is wicked. A friend paints a portrait of Dorian when Dorian is a youth. Over the years Dorian grows more wicked, commits unspeakable act. And yet, he does not age. It is as though he has found the Fountain of Youth. However, whenever Dorian goes home and looks at his portrait, the image he sees grows uglier with each wicked act he has committed.

Dorian must hide the portrait in his attic, because it becomes grotesque, and he must not let anyone see the image of the true Dorian.

Your story reminds me of Wilde's story. What people see at first glance has nothing to do with what or who we are. That hidden value is the true measure of our worth.

You see how you got me thinking? :)

Good story @ubani1. Thank you.
