The whole day I was on my bed, talking to the people and making their appointments.

I didn't have to make presentations as I didn't own the laptop. Caroline never let me have it.

The excuse was better so I had to use it in front of him.

I was dizzy and still struggling to eat. I didn't even have the strength to make soup, so I thought of having a granola bar but I dismissed it when I felt nauseous again.

He didn't know where I lived and it was good since I didn't pick up his calls.

I didn't reply to his messages even.

He might have got my number last night when he tucked me in. I need to put a password in it.

The only meal I had was breakfast.

Since weekends are for partying, my neighbors' music grazed my ears late at night. I didn't bother telling them to turn it off or reduce the volume, as I couldn't even walk.

Sunday too went like that, but the evening was better. I was able to gain a bit, just a bit of strength to eat some cookies. Thankfully they weren't expired.

I took shower at night and felt better than before.

Luckily I did all of my work before Monday.

Monday morning I was tired yet again. So I decided to call Caroline to inform her I wouldn't come.

"If you miss today, then I'll give you your resignation letter tomorrow. The decision's yours" she announced.

Don't cry. Don't cry. Don't cry.

"I'll come" I informed her and she hung up.

I need peace for god's sake

She was taking advantage of my condition, but I couldn't do anything.

Why? Why?

"I need a hug bubs" I whispered and rubbed my eyes to get rid of the tears.

I quickly changed into a grey turtle neck and black booty jeans, along with my gloves.

I don't know what figure I had, but surely I had pooch, thick thighs, and big ass, my breasts were kind of okay.

Everything about me was big and that was why I needed to lose weight.

I was confident in my body, but most of the time it made me insecure.

Was I fat? Overweight? Why was I so thick? Maybe I should exercise? Or diet? Or both. But how.

Pushing these thoughts aside, I had my cereal while making my purse.

I was feeling a tad bit fine thankfully.

Quickly taking the bus, I reached the office.

I made coffee for my 'boss' and made the schedule for her. I didn't accompany her to the meetings, instead, I made her planner, designs, collected things, and checked the dresses.

It was lunch break when I decided I needed food. I ordered a burger and hoped it will be digested.

But no, I had to empty my guts. I had to feel tired and dizzy again.

I was fighting dizziness when I got a call on the landline.

"Hello, This is 'Caroline's designs'. How may I help you?" I said, trying to not sound tired or sick.

I drank water to feel okay.

"Avha, are you okay? Why aren't you answering my calls? And messages? Is everything fine? Did you have your breakfast? Baby tell me you're fine" He sighed at the last statement.

"Bubs, Why are you calling here? Do you have some work from here? And yeah I'm fine" I smiled. He cares. HE CARES.

"Are you okay, baby? Why do you sound tired?" he asked again.

"Avaha, Caroline's calling you" Naomi, a tall blonde told me.

"I'm going now. Byee bubs. Smile for me" I hung up and as I stood I held the desk to prevent stumbling some steps back.

"Oh god. Are you okay Avaha?" She came towards me.

"I'm fine," I said.

"Are you though? Your lips are pale. Let me get help" she said worriedly.

"I'm fine. I promise" my promises were as weak as me.

"But-" I cut her "I'm fine. Thank you" I left her and walked towards Caroline's office.

She asked me to get some of the designs checked and gave me some 'nice' remarks about my outfit.

I was now in the washroom, where I just couldn't see anything.

I felt a sharp pain in my head and it was all blurred in front of me. I had to steady myself, but I couldn't see anything to hold on to.

I fell unconscious after fighting the blurriness. See, my promises are as weak and pathetic as me.
