Diary of an anorexic in love

Still that girl

So I wanted to ask John why he is talking to me (since he wants me to get ran over) at my party but I didn't want to fight on my birthday. So I text to meet me on the porch at 3 and it's currently 7 and Saturday.

I get up and go to the scale even though I weighted myself at night. I put one foot on, take a deep breath, and put the other foot on. It reads 129.1. I lost .2 pounds. Since last night.

I go to the bathroom and wash my face and brush my teeth. I use the bathroom and when I sit on the toilet I notice my legs don't spread out as wide as Texas like they use to. I smile but quickly stop smiling when I realize that I can do better. I must do better. I go back to my room and start stretching. I put on my running gear and put my earphones on. I'm about to walk out the door when I hear my mom call my name.

"Good morning where are you going."

"To the park."

"Why so early?"

"I'm gonna jog around for a little."

"You can't exercise without eating."

"Fine. What's in there."

"I made some pancakes. how many do you want?"

"Can I just take some fruit and a granola bar."

"Fine. But be back around lunch you are eating with me."

I get a granola bar, a banana, and I take a water. When I get outside I see the blinds open and she is watching me. I have no choice but to open the banana and take a bite. I walk fast so that I'm out of her view. I swallow the bit of banana that was in my mouth. I throw the rest of it and a granola bar into a trash can on the curb.

I start jogging and playing my music. After about a good 30 of jogging and my phone rings. I jog in place and look down at my phone, it's Tris. I answer it.

"Hey Tris what's up."

"Hey kid I have some bad news."

"What's up." I ask getting nervous.

"I'm sorry but I'm going to cut you loose."

"Cut me loose?"

"Fire you."

"It's fine. I'm fine."

"I'm so sorry it was my manager who made me. Are you ok?"

"Totally. I'm fine, I was gonna quit anyways."

"Oh, I had no idea. Well if you want to talk I'm always here. I have to go so.."

"Yea later."

I hang up and start jogging again. I feel tears running down my face but quickly drying cause of my speed.

"Woo, you should slow down."

I stop and turn around to see Hunter.

"Stalking me now?"

He giggles and responds "Nope just hoping to be in your presence as
much as possible."

"Are you trying to flirt."

" Is it working."

I giggle and stop my music. I sit on the grass and he sits next to me.

"So I wanted to ask you something."

"Shoot."

"Will you go on a date with me."

"Depends when and where."

"Tomorrow at 1 and we are gonna go thrift shopping."

"Are we gonna hit up all the goodwills." I laugh and he does too.
