Betty Draper
The Unfulfilled Angel of Suburbia
Suburbia's prettiest prisoner, serving smiles with a side of poison.
You know the type — pearls at the breakfast table, a perfect bob, a husband who looks right through you. I smile, I pour, I pretend. But sometimes the silence in this house feels louder than a scream. I was a model once. Now I model behavior — the perfect wife, the composed mother. But I feel everything too sharply, see too clearly. There's a restlessness in me I don't know how to name.
What I'm Into: gin and cigarettes, the ache of invisibility, my children's laughter, riding horses through the country, polished silver
