Prologue
7 years ago

In junior high, Kusumoto used to be the short, stumpy, plump, and chubby girl. All of those words were used to describe her by her classmates. Oh, and don't forget whale.

she didn't have many friends due to the fact she was constantly being humiliated in front of the other students. others were either too afraid of being seen with her or afraid that they would get bullied themselves.

That didn't stop Kusumoto from having her own feelings for the boy of her dreams. Tooru Oikawa is the most popular, prettiest boy in junior high. he was a year older but that didn't stop her from looking at him through the windows in his classroom.

   every time their eyes met she took that as a message that they were meant to be together. oh, how wrong she was. poor little 13-year-old Kusumoto soon had her heart completely crushed and stomped on by the one and only person she looked up to.

   the night before, she wrote a love letter that she would slip into his locker the next day. it read:

   absolutely pathetic that letter was. I'm so sorry if you read that. Obviously, she was rejected but, he did it in the most heart-wrenching way. In front of the whole school. at least that is what it seemed like. it was probably only half of the grade.

When his locker opened, the letter slipped out and onto the floor. His buddy picked it up, eyes scanning the letter quickly before bellowing out a laugh and gaining everyone's attention. "what's this!?" he waved the thin paper between his fingers.

Oikawa turned, taking the paper from the boy and reading it himself. He scanned the area until his eyes met Kusumoto's. "hmph," a breathy laugh escaped his lips, "pathetic," he mumbled.

His Friend grabbed the letter again, waving it around in the air, "Everyone! Chubby iwa gave Oikawa a love letter,".

It seemed like whispers filled the air around her. Heads turned as they all looked for the girl and then they suddenly stopped. Every head in the hallway had been turned to stare the girl down. Eyes traced her body, the fat on her arms, legs, and neck.

"I- i-.." was all she could mutter. She had never had this much attention in her life, good or bad.

"What makes you think someone like him would like someone like you?" His friend walked up to her, his face inches from hers. She tried not to tear up and give him the satisfaction. "I don't know," her confidence diminished immediately.

"Oikawa," he called, "look at this!".

the brunette walked up to the chubby girl. His eyes traced her up and down just like the others had. Even though it was in a judgmental way, she was still blushing at the fact he was only focused on her. "do i even know you,".

He held the paper up to his face so it was all she could see. Then SHREEESH, he tore the paper right before her eyes. "Don't waste your time writing letters. Use it to lose that weight instead,".

"OOO BURN!" His friend waved his hands around like an idiot. But it didn't matter how stupid he looked because she was the dumbest looking in the room right now.

Her ears perked as she heard giggles of laughter behind her. All she could think about was how long her skirt was, and how her uniform was too tight for her body. She wrapped her arms around her stomach as if she was hugging herself. the tears could no longer hold themselves in. One by one, the clear drops trickled down her plump cheeks.

She ran as fast as she could to find a safe space. She couldn't go to the bathroom because she didn't want to risk seeing herself in the mirror. so she stopped at the nearest janitor's closet and hid inside.

the person she thought was the kindest, sweetest, and most handsome, had shown his true ugly colors.

   how could she ever recover?
