So let me tell you a story about a girl. And so that she can remain anonymous and also because I couldn't remember her real name either, we'll just call her Little Red Riding Hood.
Little Red Riding Hood was your average college girl. She used to go to an exclusive all girls' school, had a circle of girl friends, and loved to hang out in the mall when classes got dismissed early. She's not what you would call pretty but she nevertheless loves to think that she is so. And like any girl her age, if you tell her that she's pretty, she would consider you her best friend (if you're a girl) or fall in love with you (if you're a guy and she thinks you're cute). Of course, if you're not her type of guy, then she would stay the hell away from you no matter how good your compliments are. She would still believe your compliments though.
So one afternoon, classes ended early and Little Red Riding Hood and her friends went to the mall to have lunch. There really wasn't anything much to do so they just decided to do whatever comes to mind.
After lunch, they decided to spend a few hours in a coffee shop, chatting, laughing, talking about the usual girl stuff. It was while they were laughing about something that her girlfriends noticed something wrong: Little Red Riding Hood had something dark and obvious stuck in between her two front teeth.
The situation was of course very awkward and her friends really had no idea whether to tell her or just ignore it. They just decided to ignore it. But as you can imagine, it was really very distracting when you can see something as obvious as that (it was supposedly half a centimeter in diameter) while at the same time trying to laugh and pretend that you're not really seeing anything.
So the boring afternoon hours passed and the girls later went to a nearby park to get some fresh air. They played, talked, and laughed with some kids and flirted with some boys they saw. And all the while, Little Red Riding Hood was the loudest of them all, chatting with the kids face to face (the kids were probably terrified of what they were seeing and were very uncomfortable about it) and smiling her best smile to some of the boys. Her friends, meanwhile, can only manage to exchange meaningful glances behind her back.
Later that evening, the group decided to head out to a friend's house to freshen up before heading home and also to have a little more chitchat. Little Red Riding Hood excused herself to go to the bathroom. A few minutes later, they heard her shrieking and running to them, shouting:
"Oh my God, you shameless bitches! (laughs) Why didn't you tell me there was something stuck in between my teeth!"
Friends: "Huh? What? We don't know what you're talking about..."
Yada, yada, yada...
Later that night, her friends called each other up to ask the question that's been burning in their mind the whole afternoon:
"Hey, did you notic--?"
"Yes!!!! Hahahaha!"

To this day, none of her friends admitted to having noticed anything.
To this day, Little Red Riding Hood suspects her friends of lying to her about it.
